Summary: Deformities of the chin, including both macrogenia or microgenia, can alter facial aesthetics and harmony. Various reliable approaches to correct chin abnormalities are present. Nonetheless, in this article, we propose our surgical approach to reduce the chin with a 5-mm cutting burr, without the need for osteotomy. The ultimate goal of this new procedure is to provide optimum outcomes, ensure maximum safety, reduce the complication risk, and present a simple and fast option for chin reduction.
