ABSTRACT
Introduction: Sliding Genioplasty is an important tool in the aesthetic surgery of
the lower third of the face, it allows the harmonization by moving the osteotomized
segment in different planes.
Objective: to describe the pre-surgical analysis
for a Genioplasty in a patient with skeletal anomaly and macrogenia in the vertical
and horizontal dimensions.
Results: the analysis concludes a chin reduction in two
planes, an infrequent procedure in the surgical management of the lower third.
Discussion: although most of the corrections made today involve an advance or
descent of the chin in cases of retro or microgenia, it is important to recognize
other deformities and evaluate facial proportions, dental occlusion, cephalometric
measurements and photographic images identifying the specific needs of each patient.
Conclusion: performing a correct identification of the skeletal class and an
aesthetic facial analysis allows identifying the type of deformity and planning its
surgical management.
