Profiloplasty

Profiloplasty

The visage of the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti is regarded by many aesthetic experts as the epitome of facial perfection. Her symmetrical contours, high arched eyebrows, and slender nose—combined with full lips, prominent cheekbones, and large, balanced eyes—define the contemporary ideal of female facial beauty. Today, achieving this aesthetic harmony is more accessible than ever through profiloplasty, a leading trend that has become a cornerstone of the specialized services at Medicana International Hospital Zincirlikuyu in Istanbul.

Profiloplasty—also known as profile aesthetics—is a comprehensive procedure designed to harmonize the key facial features that define the profile: the nose, cheeks, chin, lips, and forehead. Imperfections such as a nasal dorsal hump, a receding chin, thin lips, or a flat forehead can often be corrected using advanced hyaluronic acid injections. Even subtle enhancements, such as non-surgical rhinoplasty or chin augmentation, can produce transformative results. Whether addressing the chin, jawline, forehead, or other facial areas, profiloplasty techniques are highly customizable, utilizing a diverse range of materials and implants in various shapes and sizes to achieve a bespoke, natural look for each patient.

The procedure for a profiloplasty


The procedure may vary slightly depending on the treatment area (chin, forehead, etc.). For cheek contouring (profiloplasty), specialists at Medicana International Hospital Zincirlikuyu in Istanbul utilize various implant formats that offer excellent biocompatibility and can even be permanently integrated by the body. Depending on the quality and type, dermal fillers (injectable implants) typically last between 6 months and 5 years. While the results of solid implants are visible immediately after the procedure, the effects of the injectable options may take a few days to fully manifest. Patients can generally resume their social activities within 4 to 7 days.

In the initial step, surgeons at Medicana International Hospital Zincirlikuyu analyze the patient's facial proportions and underlying bone structure. This assessment is crucial for the surgical planning and the selection of the most suitable materials. Patients can fundamentally choose between solid implants, which are placed through a surgical procedure, and non-surgical 'injectable implants' administered via syringe to the targeted areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to narrow the face?

In principle, a face can be surgically narrowed. The profile correction primarily depends on the shape of the face. For example, if a face is too wide in the area of the jaw angles, it is possible to remove some of the bony jaw angle as well as some of the muscle above it. If the face is too thick in the cheek area, for instance, some of the buccal fat pad can be removed. Therefore, a thorough examination of your face is necessary initially.

How do I know which material is best for me?

The surgeon discusses this with the patient. Many doctors have specialized in specific materials and have already gained a lot of experience with them. They are consequently well acquainted with them.

Does the health insurance cover the costs?

In general, the costs of cosmetic surgery are usually not covered by health insurance, as this is a more or less voluntary procedure. The situation is different in cases following traumatic experiences, accidents that have resulted in "disfigurement" or optical changes, or in the case of congenital, unnatural body conditions.

What can be done surgically for a receding chin?

to be performed. In addition, the option is offered to reinforce the chin with various materials such as Gore-Tex, silicone, plastic, or bone cement. By making a so-called saw cut on the chin bone itself, the chin can also be enlarged.

What method works for a very broad jawline?

Broad jaw areas can be corrected through so-called reductive procedures on the jaw bones. This profile correction can be performed from the oral cavity without leaving scars on the face.
