Our Approach
We offer three main techniques:
- Bone surgery (bone reshaping)
- Implants (reserved for specific cases)
- Lipogems® (for suitable candidates)
Procedure and Recovery
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, lasting 30-60 minutes. Patients may stay in the clinic for 2-4 hours, depending on individual recovery needs. Post-operative care includes lymphatic drainage massage, with the first follow-up visit scheduled for the next day.
Personalized Treatment
Suitable for individuals over 18 years of age, each treatment plan is meticulously personalized based on the patient's anatomy and desires.
The Art of Chin Remodeling with Regenerative Medicine
At Image Regenerative Clinic, regenerative mentoplasty represents the most advanced evolution in facial proportion correction. Under the direction of Professor Carlo Tremolada, we integrate Lipogems technology with sophisticated surgical techniques to create a harmonious profile that respects each face's uniqueness. The chin, a crucial element in facial balance, is remodeled using the patient's own adipose tissue, ensuring natural and lasting results that integrate perfectly with individual characteristics.
Three-Dimensional Analysis and Personalized Planning
Every mentoplasty treatment begins with thorough facial proportion analysis using advanced imaging technologies. We evaluate the cervico-mental angle, chin projection relative to the nasal profile, and overall harmony of the lower facial third. This three-dimensional analysis allows us to plan with millimetric precision the optimal volume and shape for each patient, also considering the dynamic interaction between soft tissues and underlying bone structure.
Multiple Techniques for Optimal Results
Our expertise allows us to use three distinct approaches based on specific patient needs. Bone surgery is indicated for significant mandibular structure remodeling, custom implants offer precise projection for selected cases, while the Lipogems technique represents the ideal regenerative solution for natural volumetric increases and asymmetry corrections. We often combine these techniques to achieve superior results that wouldn't be possible with a single approach.
Specific Considerations for the Mental Region
The chin presents unique anatomical characteristics requiring specialized competencies. The skin in this area is particularly thick and adherent, while surrounding musculature directly influences facial expression. Our regenerative technique accounts for these factors, using strategically positioned micro-grafts of adipose tissue to ensure uniform volume distribution and preserve natural tissue mobility. Particular attention is paid to preserving sensitivity and preventing asymmetries.
