Facial feminization surgery (FFS) is a compilation of all plastic or cosmetic surgeries that aim to create a more feminine facial appearance. It involves various specific techniques for reshaping different facial features. One such specific surgery is chin feminization surgery or - genioplasty or Chin Reduction in India.

What is Chin Feminization Surgery?

Chin feminization surgery is a cosmetic surgery to reshape and reduce the size, width, and prominence of an individual’s chin.

It is a part of facial feminization surgery, usually taken up by transgender males seeking more feminine facial contours. However, it may even benefit nonbinary, gender non-conforming, and cisgender women, who desire more feminine features. The surgery engenders a harmonious jawline- a feminine chin that is smaller in proportion, has gentle curves, and is subtly pointed.

How is Chin Feminized?

There are various techniques to feminize the chin. A genioplasty can involve any of the following approaches:

• Osseous genioplasty- In this surgical technique, a wedge of chin bone is removed and repositioned to reduce the prominence and size of the chin. It creates a more delicate chin shape.
• Sliding genioplasty- This surgical technique involves chin bone excision followed by forward or backward sliding of the cut portion. It aims to alter the shape or position of the chin bone, thereby reducing the chin size and prominence.
• 3-piece genioplasty- This approach is preferred to create a narrow, “V-shaped” lower face. Typically, it’s done in adjunct with mandible reduction. It provides total jawline augmentation.
• Mandible reduction- This approach focuses on resizing the jaw, ultimately creating a softer chin and jawline. The angle and width of the jaw are reduced by the removal of the outer layers of the jawbone.
