Sliding Genioplasty
Reposition the chin bone itself for significant, permanent changes to projection or length.
Sliding Genioplasty, sculpted to fit your natural bone structure
A well-defined jawline and chin anchor facial balance, and Sliding Genioplasty at Bangladesh Cosmetic Surgery is planned against your existing bone structure, skin thickness, and profile — not a borrowed template.
Your surgeon uses imaging and a physical assessment to decide how much correction is needed, so the change looks proportionate from every angle, not just straight on.
- A jawline or chin that feels underprojected, recessed, or asymmetrical
- Visible fullness along the jaw, cheeks, or under the chin
- A desire for more definition without looking overdone
- Facial bone asymmetry affecting your profile balance

Consultation & Assessment
4 things that happen at your first visit
What happens during the first consultation?
Your surgeon reviews your medical history, examines the relevant anatomy, and listens to what you'd like to change with Sliding Genioplasty — this sets the direction for everything that follows.
Am I a good candidate for Sliding Genioplasty?
Candidacy depends on your anatomy, health history, and goals. Your surgeon will confirm during consultation whether Sliding Genioplasty is the right approach or whether an alternative may suit you better.
What should I bring or prepare?
Reference photos, a list of current medications, and any relevant medical or surgical history help your surgeon understand your goals faster.
How is my anatomy assessed?
Photographic analysis and, where needed, a physical examination are used to plan Sliding Genioplasty around your existing structure and proportions.
How is the technique decided for my case?
The exact approach for Sliding Genioplasty depends on how much correction is needed and your specific anatomy, and is discussed with you before you commit to surgery.
How is the plan tailored to me?
Your surgeon plans Sliding Genioplasty around your existing structure and skin so the result looks proportionate to your face or body, not a generic template.
Will other concerns be addressed in the same plan?
If related concerns are identified at consultation, they can often be discussed and, where appropriate, combined into the same surgical plan.
What does the final surgical plan include?
A clear outline of the technique for Sliding Genioplasty, expected changes, anesthesia type, and a realistic recovery timeline specific to your case.
What anesthesia is used for Sliding Genioplasty?
Sliding Genioplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, or general anesthesia for bone procedures, administered and monitored by a qualified anesthesia team throughout the procedure.
How long does the procedure take?
Sliding Genioplasty typically takes 45 minutes to 2.5 hours, depending on the complexity of your case.
What happens during the procedure?
Surgery takes place in an accredited facility, with your surgeon carrying out Sliding Genioplasty according to the plan agreed beforehand.
Who is on the surgical team that day?
Your lead surgeon, an anesthesia specialist where relevant, and trained surgical staff are present throughout, with your vitals monitored continuously.
What dressing or aftercare is used right after surgery?
Most patients leave with a light compression garment or dressing, along with clear instructions on care for the treated area during the first days after Sliding Genioplasty.
How long until swelling settles?
Most visible swelling from Sliding Genioplasty fades over the first few weeks, though subtle refinement can continue for a few weeks to a few months.
What follow-up visits are scheduled?
Check-ins are scheduled at key healing milestones so your surgeon can track progress after Sliding Genioplasty and address any concerns early.
When can I return to normal activities?
Most patients return to non-strenuous activity within 5–10 days after Sliding Genioplasty; strenuous exercise is usually paused for several weeks longer.
