Restore Facial Harmony with Chin Contouring by Dr. Ahmed Lotfy El-Gammal
A prominent or unbalanced chin can affect the overall symmetry of your face, often creating an impression that doesn’t reflect your true self. Chin contouring offers an effective solution to bring harmony between the chin and other facial features—giving you a more balanced, confident appearance.
This procedure isn’t just about aesthetics—it can also address certain bite issues or congenital jaw problems, combining both cosmetic and functional benefits.
Here’s where Dr. Ahmed Lotfy El-Gammal, Consultant in Plastic Surgery & Body Contouring, comes in—with years of experience in facial sculpting and precision chin reshaping. Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s unique features, ensuring natural, long-lasting results without exaggeration.
What Is Chin Contouring?
Chin contouring, also known as chin reduction surgery, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the chin by reducing its length, width, or projection.
The goal is to create a chin that is more proportionate to the nose, jawline, and overall facial features. It’s ideal for patients who have:
-
An overly large or long chin (macrogenia)
-
A protruding lower jaw
-
Chin asymmetry or imbalance with the rest of the face
-
Congenital deformities in the chin or jaw structure
The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and yields permanent results when carried out by a skilled specialist.
