Genioplasty corrects chin deformities in three planes, improving facial profile and function. This surgical technique addresses various chin anomalies, including those causing obstructive sleep apnea.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Orthognathic Surgery
  • Craniofacial Surgery

Context:

  • The chin is a critical component of facial aesthetics and profile.
  • Morphological anomalies can occur along sagittal, vertical, and transversal axes.
  • Genioplasty is a surgical procedure to correct these chin deformities.

Purpose:

  • To review the anatomical basis of genioplasty.
  • To highlight the diagnostic value of cephalometric analysis for chin anomalies.
  • To describe operative steps for horizontal advancement osteotomy and other genioplasty techniques.

Summary:

  • Genioplasty modifies chin bone position in three planes to correct retrogenius, progenius, vertical discrepancies, or laterogenius.
  • It can be performed independently or with other maxillomandibular osteotomies.

  • Functional applications include treating obstructive sleep apnea disorders.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of genioplasty techniques and indications.
    • Emphasizes the role of cephalometric analysis in diagnosis and treatment planning.
    • Offers insights into correcting chin malformations for aesthetic and functional improvement.
