Anatomical Reconstruction

Background:

Subperiosteal chin implants risk deep mandibular erosion.
Supraperiosteal implants exhibit instability and mobility.
Achieving a smooth chin-to-cheek contour via small incisions is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a new surgical technique for chin augmentation using a two-piece silicone implant.
To improve implant stability and aesthetic outcomes in mentoplasty.
To facilitate insertion through a minimally invasive approach.

Main Methods:

A two-piece carved silicone rubber implant was designed.
The implant was placed in a dual-layer pocket: subperiosteal laterally and supraperiosteal centrally.
Surgical insertion was performed through a small incision.

Main Results:

The technique provides firm implant fixation.
Lateral tapering of the implant ensures a natural transition to the cheek.
The procedure allows for easy insertion via a small incision.

Conclusions:

This dual-layer pocket technique offers improved stability and aesthetic results for chin augmentation.
The method overcomes the limitations of traditional subperiosteal and supraperiosteal implant placements.
Minimally invasive insertion is achievable with this innovative approach.
