It is possible the reduce a chin’s prominence and I would seek out local ASPS board certified surgeons to discuss your desires and have the best treatment recommendation made.

Dear Demask,

Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Yes, it is possible to have a chin reduction surgery, but you need to find someone who performs this procedure regularly. It is best to answer your question during a face-to-face evaluation, when you can discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure, and you can have a physical examination to evaluate for that procedure. I recommend that you find a board-certified, or board-eligible plastic surgeon with whom you are comfortable. Be sure to have all of your questions answered during a face-to-face meeting with your surgeon, and review before and after pictures of similar patients whom have had this procedure. If you have any questions, call our office for assistance. Good luck!
