VEYLOChin
Genioplasty: see chin advancement in millimetres on your own face
Move the chin forward or back in half-millimetre steps on a 3D scan of your own face, and compare a sliding genioplasty with an implant or filler on the same scan. Then discuss it with a surgeon.

What is a genioplasty?
A sliding genioplasty is a surgical procedure in which the chin bone is cut and moved — forward, back, up or down — and fixed in its new position. Because the bone itself moves, it is different from adding an implant or filler on top of it.
Whether it is an option, and how far the chin would move, is decided by a maxillofacial or plastic surgeon after an examination and imaging.
In Veylo you set the movement in millimetres. Only the chin changes, and the same settings always give the same image.

Questions about genioplasty
How many millimetres can a genioplasty move the chin?
That is for a surgeon to assess. As context, a systematic review reported study averages between 6.2 and 11.7 mm of advancement (overall mean 8.2 mm). Veylo lets you try values so you can ask about them.
Genioplasty or chin implant — what is the difference?
An implant is placed on the chin bone; a sliding genioplasty moves the bone itself. Veylo can show both, plus filler, on the same scan. Which one, if any, suits you is a clinical decision.
Does Veylo show my result after surgery?
No. It shows an appearance visualization. It cannot predict how the soft tissue follows the bone, healing, swelling or the surgical outcome.
Can I visualize a shorter or longer chin?
Yes, the app also has a vertical setting. Published studies don’t give a verified typical range for it, so the app shows none.
Can I show the visualization to my surgeon?
Yes. A private, encrypted link opens in any browser, labelled as a patient-created visualization, with an expiry you choose.
