Chin Reduction: Achieving Harmonious Facial Proportions
Chin reduction, also known as genioplasty, is a surgical procedure performed by Dr. Karan Chopra, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon with expertise in plastic surgery of the face, breast, eyes, and body. With over 10+ years of experience and a dedication to safety, quality, research, and innovation, Dr. Chopra is known for his revolutionary techniques that yield natural-looking results unique to each patient.
Understanding Chin Reduction
Chin reduction is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape and resize the chin to achieve harmonious facial proportions. It is often performed to address a prominent or disproportionately large chin, which can create an unbalanced facial appearance. By reducing the size of the chin, Dr. Chopra can help patients achieve a more aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
The Procedure
During a chin reduction procedure, Dr. Chopra carefully evaluates the patient’s facial structure and discusses their desired outcome. He then creates a personalized surgical plan to achieve the desired results. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort throughout the surgery.
Dr. Chopra makes an incision either inside the mouth or under the chin, depending on the patient’s specific needs. Through this incision, he skillfully removes excess bone and reshapes the chin to the desired size and contour. The incision is then closed with sutures, and the patient is provided with post-operative care instructions.

- Enhanced self-confidence: Many patients who undergo chin reduction experience a boost in self-esteem and confidence as they achieve a more aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
- Natural-looking results: Dr. Chopra’s revolutionary techniques ensure that the results of chin reduction surgery appear natural and complement the patient’s unique facial features.
- Quick recovery: With Dr. Chopra’s expertise and meticulous attention to detail, patients can expect a relatively quick recovery period following chin reduction surgery.
