What is short chin surgery?
A surgery for improving the symptoms of a short chin tip and receded lower jaw (micrognathia).

In most cases, it is accompanied by malocclusion where the upper and lower occlusion does not match and an unclear chin line.
Special Features of VIEW’s Short Chin Surgery
1. Design: It designs the chin shape in harmony with the entire face and makes a natural chin line.
2. Appearance Upgrade: Rich surgery experience and excellent aesthetic sense of cosmetic surgeons can dramatically improve your appearance.
3. Bone Scalpel: This device used for cutting only bones enables a safe and precise surgery without damaging important nerves and blood vessels.
Bone Scalpel Enhancing The Accuracy
The bone scalpel is an ultrasonic device which cuts the bones by responding only to the bone tissues.
It has less vibration within 0.5mm enabling a very precise surgery, protects nearby blood vessels and nerves by responding only to bones, causes less tissue damages and bleeding and provides quick recovery.
Surgery Method
This procedure cuts the lower jaw and moves the receded chin forward.
For severely short chin, both bimaxillary osteotomy and chin tip advancement surgery are performed to make a natural chin line.
1. Cut the lower jaw bones.
2. Move the cut bones forward and then fix them.
3. The chin tip advancement surgery moves the receded chin tip forward.
TIP
If the occlusion is normal and simply the chin tip is receded, chin tip advancement surgery can achieve good results.
In case of protruded mouth impossible to be corrected by the general protruded mouth surgery and severe short chin, the three-jaw surgery can totally improve complicated issues by performing both protruded mouth surgery and bimaxillary (two-jaw) osteotomy.
