“…Danahey and colleagues believe that there should be a fit between the nose and the chin and recommend that patients undergoing rhinoplasty must have counseling for genioplasty at the same time [19]. Mayer has introduced photogrammetry and cephalometry as a method for analyzing soft tissue and skeleton of the face to recognize asymmetry and [20] and Johnstown in complementary mandibular lesions correction [21]. Bertossi et al in a study on candidates of rhinoplasty and genioplasty stated that: in addition to evaluation for rhinoplasty there must be an assessment for microgenia or macrogenia to see if they need genioplasty or not [22].…”

Introduction: The aim of this study is evaluation of chin deformities and their role in rhinoplasty cosmetic surgery outcomes via photogrammetry of chin. Materials and Methods: The study is a cross sectional one. All photos of rhinoplasty surgery candidates of three hospitals (Amir Aalam, Imam Khomeini and Razi of Tehran) which were taken in standard lateral position via SLR cameras were assessed through Adobe Photoshop CS, in order to determine four different aesthetic measurements. Except for excluded photos due to our excluding criteria or technical problems, all photographs were evaluated carefully. Results: 144 photos of patients were enrolled. The oldness of patients ranges between below 20 up to above; 65.99 patients were female (68.8%) and 45 were male. 73 patients (50.7%) had an abnormal silver condition. Moreover 9 patients (6.3%) with abnormal nasomental, 124 patients with abnormal status of Gonzalez-Ulloa (93.8%), 63 patients (43.8%) with unusual status of Ricketts' E line/upper and 49 patients (34%) with abnormal Ricketts' E line/lower status can be demonstrated. Discussion: Performing a photogrammetric study for candidates of cosmetic rhinoplasty also a chin examination as a mandatory preoperative assessment seems to be essential. Due to the lack of studies in this field, more studies are necessary.

Background: Currently, botulinum toxin A (BTA) is mainly used in the treatment of muscle spasms and in cosmetic procedures, and its cosmetic indications are expanding rapidly. There have been sporadic reports focused on the preoperative usage of BTA complementing plastic surgery. We briefly summarize the current experience of BTA complementing plastic surgery in China based on clinical experience. Methods:We reported a brief review of the preoperative use of BTA as an accessory to plastic surgery (blepharoplasty, chin augmentation, mandibular angle ostectomy, rhinoplasty, hyaluronic acid fillers injection for wrinkle reduction) based on previous studies and our experience.Results: Preoperative treatment with BTA in plastic surgery helps surgeons operate and results in better cosmetic results. Conclusions:Preoperative BTA treatment can reduce the occurrence of surgical complications as well as improve the surgical results in some plastic surgeries. The procedure is suitable for clinical application and worth promoting. K E Y W O R D Sbotulinum toxin A, cosmetic surgery, preoperative

“…Retrognathia has an underdeveloped/malpositioned ramus, with class II malocclusion and just horizontal deficiency. 6,7 As patients with malocclusion may require orthognathic surgery, determining dental occlusion is critical. In class 1 occlusion, the maxillary first molar's mesiobuccal cusp lies in line with the buccal groove of the mandibular first molar.…”

An aesthetically pleasing face is centered on strength, symmetry, and balance. A defined, well-projected chin and jawline are crucial to this harmony and recontouring the lower third of the face plays a significant role in plastic surgery. Chin augmentation can be performed with injectables, implantation, or osseous genioplasty. The selection of the best procedure is based on the type and extent of deformity. This article reviews chin augmentation with emphasis on alloplast implantation. The relevant anatomy, patient evaluation, implant indications and limitations, alloplast selection, and surgical techniques in implantation are presented.

Clinical evaluation for chin augmentation: literature review and algorithm proposal

Abstract: An adequate analysis of the proportions of the face and facial disharmony is essential for the correct indication of the necessary procedures and good surgical outcome. The authors propose an algorithm to facilitate the indication for chin augmentation surgery.
