Am I a suitable candidate for Chin Reduction Surgery?
Chin reduction surgery aims at altering a receding or protruding chin. If you would like to greatly improve your profile (by making your nose or overbite appear smaller and leaving the face better proportioned, giving an overall balanced effect) then chin reduction surgery could be an option for you.
In general, the best candidates for chin reduction surgery are men and women who are:
- In good physical health.
- Psychologically stable.
- Wanting to improve their appearance.
- Realistic in their expectations.
What is my first step?
Your initial consultation with one of our vastly experienced chin reduction surgeons should clearly set out your expectations and whether the surgery can give you the results you desire.
Your reasons for wanting chin reduction and your suitability for this type of procedure will be carefully discussed. Also, your medical history will be taken to ensure that there are no reasons why you shouldn't have this operation.
What can I do to help achieve the best results?
Before choosing to have chin reduction surgery, ensure that you obtain as much information as is necessary to enable you to make a fully informed choice.
Your surgeon will give you specific instructions regarding preparing for surgery, including guidelines for
- Eating and drinking.
- Smoking.
- Taking or avoiding vitamins, iron tablets and certain medications.
How else can I prepare for this procedure?
Before your surgery, take the opportunity to ask all the questions you have about the procedure.
- Tell your surgeon about any allergies you have (to foods, drugs, environmental elements).
- Arrange for someone to drive you home after surgery.
