Mentoplasty: facial balance in a single gesture
Do you feel like your chin doesn’t match the rest of your face?
A receding, overly projecting, or asymmetrical chin can disrupt facial harmony without knowing exactly why. Mentoplasty is a simple but powerful surgery: it allows you to improve your profile, define your jawline, and restore proportion to your face… without changing your essence.
At Clínica Birbe, we master the various mentoplasty techniques available, whether advancement, reduction, or three-dimensional correction, with or without custom implants, adapting the surgical technique to your anatomy and aesthetic goals. We can use your own bone (osseous mentoplasty) or resort to custom prostheses if the case requires it.
🎯 What do we achieve with a well-performed mentoplasty?
A more balanced and attractive profile
Improved jawline definition
A more proportionate and harmonious face
Natural, long-lasting results without surgical stigma

Clinical case of reduction mentoplasty
This patient felt that her chin was too long and dominant, which gave the face a stern air. With a reduction mentoplasty, we carefully lower the bone to soften the profile and restore balance to the entire face.

Clinical case mandibular angle prosthesis
In this case, the objective was clear: to highlight the jaw angle to give character and balance to the face, without exaggeration. We use customized mandibular angle prostheses, precisely positioned to harmonize with the patient's facial structure.

Clinical case of bone mentoplasty
In this case, the patient wanted to improve facial balance by correcting a receding chin. By means of an osseous mentoplasty -that is, by advancing your own bone without implants- we are able to project the chin in a natural, safe and stable way over time.

Clinical case mentoplasty
This case demonstrates how a targeted intervention can transform facial balance. The patient had a slightly receding chin that detracted from the definition of the mandibular contour.
