[ID hospital Korea] Self diagnosis for small chin

Do you think you have a small or receded chin? 

If you're confused, try this quick self diagnosis :)

1. It is normal for the chin to protrude 3mm from the straight line down from the middle of the forehead to chin

2. If you place a plastic ruler on the tip of your nose to the tip of your chin, the lips should not touch the ruler. This indicates that the nose, lips, and the chin are relatively well-positioned.

3. From the side view, it is normal for the mouth to protrude slightly judging from the line connecting the deepest point between the nose and the mouth.

4. The line that connects the lips and the chin should form an S shape.

5. The vertical length of the upper face, the central face, and the lower face should come out in 1:1:1 golden ratio. Having a smaller face is a hot trend among Asians, so we've set the ratio to be 1:1:0.9

Surgical procedures on small chin

The procedure is decided based on the condition of the patient’s face and jaw bone. There are two types of surgery to correct small chins. 1. Osteotomy (Genioplatsy) The chin bone is cut horizontally and the portion that is set back is pulled forward and fixed. Because the bone is shifted, the shape of the chin looks natural and the neckline looks more defined. It also reduces tension in the tip of the chin. General anesthesia is done. Genioplasty can permanently improve the small chin without using any foreign material. You’re required to stay in Korea for 14 days after surgery. 2. Implant insertion  Silicone is inserted into the tip of the chin, thereby enhancing the size or adjusting the positioning of the chin. Local anesthesia is used when the small chin is not severe. Chin implant insertion is quite simple procedure and requires shorter recovery period compared to genioplasty. You’re required to stay in Korea for 14 days after surgery.
