About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Is a chin implant or a sliding genioplasty right for me?
The choice depends on your bone structure and the desired direction of correction; an implant adds projection while a sliding genioplasty repositions your own bone in multiple directions. The decision is made with facial analysis and 3D measurement.
Will there be scars, and where are the incisions made?
Incisions are usually planned intraorally or beneath the chin to leave minimal marks; visible scarring is kept to a minimum.
Is the result permanent, and will the implant need replacing later?
Osseous genioplasty and fat transfer give a lasting result; biocompatible implants are durable and usually do not need replacing. The plan is defined per case.
How long is recovery, and when can I return to work and social life?
Swelling and tenderness are expected in the first days; most patients return to daily life quickly. The exact timeline depends on the chosen technique.
Will submental liposuction fully resolve a double chin?
Removing excess submental fat defines the chin-to-neck angle; the degree of result depends on skin elasticity and your anatomy, with combined methods planned where needed.
What is the difference between fillers and surgery, and can I try fillers first?
Filler is a temporary, non-surgical shaping; it can be used for subtle correction or as a "trial" before surgery. For a permanent result, surgical methods are preferred.
Can a nose or neck procedure be combined in the same session?
In suitable cases, combined procedures can be planned in the same session to establish profile balance holistically; eligibility is determined by facial analysis and a general health assessment.
How long do swelling and bruising last, and when will I see the final result?
Swelling and bruising are most noticeable in the first days and gradually subside; the final contour settles over weeks. The timeline varies by technique.
I am coming from abroad; how many days should I stay and how are check-ups handled?
The length of stay is planned according to the chosen procedure; check-ups can continue via telemedicine for patients abroad where needed. The process is managed with visa, transfer and accommodation support.
What are the risks of the procedure and how are they minimized?
As with any surgery, certain risks exist; an experienced team, 3D planning and appropriate technique selection minimize them. Details are shared at consultation.
