At Hospital Quironsalud Barcelona, Genioplasty is performed using advanced facial surgery techniques and treatment plans tailored to the patient's facial structure. Established in 1944, the JCI, ISO accredited hospital in Barcelona, Spain has 165 beds and provides comprehensive plastic, reconstructive, and maxillofacial services.

Genioplasty may be considered for patients with a recessed, prominent, asymmetric, or disproportionate chin. During sliding genioplasty, the surgeon makes a controlled cut in the chin bone and repositions the segment to achieve the desired projection or alignment. The repositioned bone is typically secured with plates and screws while it heals. Depending on the surgical approach, temporary swelling, bruising, numbness, or changes in sensation around the lower lip and chin may occur.
