The chin is an excellent indication of gender—with women the chin is oval, soft and small. With men, the chin is more chiselled, vertically longer and wider in length. Dr. Bensimon could improve both the profile and front angle of the chin, as it could be modified in any direction.

Pairing this procedure with frontal bossing and rhinoplasty will achieve excellent results in feminizing male characteristics. Prior to surgery, Dr. Bensimon suggests having Ct scan done as it provides a 3D view of the jaw. 

The 3D Ct scan will provide a snapshot of the amount of bone that is required to be removed, and is an excellent roadmap for pre-surgical preparation.

Chin reduction can be part of the V-Line procedure or performed alone depending on your needs.
