The practice goal is to provide the very best plastic surgery with compassionate care, whether it is a case of skin cancer excision, your facelift, a rhinoplasty, a child with complex cranial deformity, or an “unresectable” neurofibroma. Being a plastic surgeon is a privilege and a responsibility. Having a patient with a difficult problem is a serious challenge that we do not shirk. The practice is also about trying to live and work by The Golden Rule while still delivering the best possible results.

The genion is the anterior point of the chin. Chin problems can include: under-projection, over-projection, vertical excess, vertical shortness, and angular deformity (crooked chin). Many patients with chin problems have normal dental occlusion, meaning they don’t need movement of their teeth to correct the chin. Under-projection is the most common chin complaint. The best correction of this problem is by surgical advancement of the bony chin, not by insertion of an artificial implant. Correction of all other bony chin problems cannot be solved by an artificial implant. https://bit.ly/3g495mr MCKINNONPLASTICSURGERY.COM Genioplasty | McKay McKinnon Plastic Surgery

Cosmetic surgery is elective and cosmetic surgery patients are usually healthy. Most procedures are performed as an outpatient. Occasionally, they will stay overnight in the hospital for the control of pain or nausea, for help in simple daily care, or for observation to prevent or treat a possible complication. Few bandages are necessary. Patients need tender loving care, some assistance with simple wound care, the application of ice or lubricating ointment to the eye, and modest help with the needs of everyday living. When possible, they can recover with help at home. https://bit.ly/3hzuCVN MCKINNONPLASTICSURGERY.COM Cosmetic Facial Surgery Post-Op Instructions | Dr. McKay McKinnon: Plastic And Reconstructive Surgery
