Resumen
Several surgical techniques are available for correcting and giving harmony to the lower third of the face. In this respect, some well-known techniques seek to correct the shape and size of the chin using different kinds of chin implants or osteotomies in an effort to move it and change its spatial location, thus determining a new facial contour.
