A genioplasty or repositioning of the chin bone can transform facial appearance. Advancing the chin bone tightens the musculature on the floor of the mouth and helps to correct jowls and a sagging neck.

Pre-genioplasty
Post-genioplasty

 

Chin implants have a similar effect but do not tighten the musculature. Some chin implants may erode into the bone over time lessening the initial effect and causing other complications with teeth and local nerves and genioplasty is often a better option if a significant advancement is contemplated.
