Correct asymmetries, disproportions, or chin defects
Regenerative Chin Augmentation
Regenerative mentoplasty at Image uses Lipogems, a treatment that utilizes processed autologous fat to reshape and harmonize the chin naturally. This approach allows correction of receding, disproportionate, or asymmetric chins, improving facial proportions and enhancing individual features. At Image Regenerative Clinic, the aesthetic and regenerative approach is not limited to soft tissues but extends to the evaluation and improvement of maxillofacial appearance. We intervene with advanced techniques to reshape and enhance facial proportions, considering the interaction between soft tissues and bone structure.

"Optimal facial profile surgery is achieved through the synergy of bone surgery and stem cell lipofilling. This combination allows us to prescribe the use of prostheses only for rare indications."
Prof. Carlo Tremolada
About the Treatment
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.
Recovery Specifics for Chin Augmentation
Post-operative recovery for chin augmentation has unique characteristics compared to other facial procedures. Patients typically experience moderate swelling concentrated in the lower facial region, which may temporarily affect speech and eating patterns. We provide specialized post-operative care including lymphatic drainage massage techniques specific to the mental region and customized compression garments that support healing while maintaining comfort. Most patients can return to desk work within 3-4 days, though avoiding strenuous physical activity for 2 weeks is recommended to prevent displacement of grafted tissue.
Why Choose Image for Chin Augmentation
