R U Contour Surgery
Bone reduction surgery does not involve excessive bone removal.
It relocates the bones to an appropriate position and
adjusts the surrounding tissues accordingly. At RU Plastic Surgery,
we avoid excessive bone cutting and movement to minimize side effects.
The Core of the Facial Line: The Chin
Chin Surgery
Chin surgery is a procedure that adjusts the length, position,
and width of the front chin when it does not match the overall
facial proportions. It creates a natural and refined V-line appearance.
After the procedure, complications such as swelling, bruising,
numbness, or nerve paralysis may occur. Subjective satisfaction
with the results may vary depending on the individual.

Chin Surgery Types at RU Plastic Surgery
At RU Plastic Surgery, we select the optimal surgical method tailored to the patient’s individual chin shape,
aiming to achieve maximum results with minimal incisions.
-
01. T OsteotomyThis is a commonly used chin surgery method
because it can be applied to various chin conditions. -
02. Inverted V OsteotomyThis is a chin surgery method primarily used when the T osteotomy
cannot be applied due to reasons such as nerves or tooth roots. -
03. V OsteotomyThis method minimizes tissue damage by performing the osteotomy
from the jaw angle to the chin in a single step. It also allows for a quick
recovery as there is no need for secondary correction. -
04. Sandwich OsteotomyThis is a surgical method where the chin is horizontally cut and pulled
forward, then fixed in place. -
Bone graft
05. Chin LengtheningWithout using an implant, this surgery extends the length of the chin
and corrects the jaw angle simultaneously, creating a well-balanced
chin line.
Key Points of Chin Surgery

Point 01
Natural Extension of the Chin Line
By performing jaw angle reduction surgery simultaneously,
a natural chin line can be extended without creating
a step deformity. -
Point 02
Precise Design by Identifying Nerve Pathways
Using 3D CT to identify the nerve pathways, the scope of
the osteotomy is planned, ensuring that the nerves are not
damaged during surgery. -

adjust the length, position, and shape of the chin according to
