Weak · Short Chin Surgery
If you have a weak · short chin, it may appear smaller compared to the upper jaw and seem recessed, leading
to a protruding appearance of the mouth. This condition often results from underdeveloped lower jaw bones.
Through surgery, it's possible to correct this protrusion and achieve a more defined chin line.
Considering
Weak · Short Chin Surgery?
Short Chin surgery is commonly performed when the length of the
chin is insufficient, causing an unclear boundary between the neck
and face and protrusion issues. The ideal proportions, considering
the overall facial ratio, chin line, skin elasticity, etc., are taken into
account during the surgery.
Ideal Chin Tip According
to the Golden Ratio
The golden ratio involves maintaining equal proportions in the distances from the hairline to the middle of the eyebrows, from the middle of the eyebrows to the tip of the nose, and from the tip of the nose to the chin. Additionally, the distance between the cheekbones should protrude about 10% more than the width of the head, and the distance between the angular parts of the lower jaw should decrease by approximately 20% compared to the width of the head.
