Plication of the Suprahyoid Muscles Concomitant with Genioplasty to Improve the Aesthetics of the Submandibular Region

In addition to functionally correcting skeletal facial deformities, orthognathic surgery also has a great impact on aesthetics and proportions. However, patients who have soft tissue changes, such as flaccidity, may not achieve an ideal result, require complementary surgical techniques that promote aesthetic refinement. The literature less invasive is limited, therefore, this work aims report technique performed concomitantly with genioplasty refine the harmony of submandibular region, in simple effective way. Patient class II deformity, lack mandibular definition underwent bimaxillary advancement correct chin retrusion. Due limited results bone repositioning alone, plication suprahyoid musculature was association same approach used genioplasty. As there traction cervical consequent decrease submental-cervical angle improvement aesthetics. Furthermore, no need for extensive intervention impairment functional itself. Therefore, it can be concluded musculat ure promotes gains region.
