Abstrakt: Mentoplasty or genioplasty is a simple procedure to enhance facial aesthetics. While usually considered simple, it might present certain difficulties during execution, especially when a minimally invasive approach is preferred. Drilling and cutting guides are a valuable tool to overcome such challenges but usually require larger incision and dissection to allow adequate positioning and bone rigid fixation. In this article, we describe a novel guide design that permits adequate bone repositioning while preserving minimally invasive protocols. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
