Chin surgery cost in Turkey
As of September 2026, the indicative chin surgery cost in Turkey on this page is 2,300-5,200 EUR per operation. The range covers chin implant and bony genioplasty plans; imaging, implant choice or bone work, anaesthesia, hospital care and inclusions are confirmed after assessment.
The final written quote can change with complexity, technique, anaesthesia, hospital arrangements, tests, medication, accommodation, transfers and follow-up. Anything not named in writing should be treated as outside the price.

Chin surgery cost compared by country
Use the country table as editorial orientation only. Ranges can cover different scopes from one country to another; compare the same procedure, inclusions and follow-up in writing before treating any figure as meaningful.
Chin surgery changes how far the chin sits in the profile. The surgeon either places an implant or moves your own bone — a bony genioplasty — and fixes it with mini-plates. It is not filler, and it is not a millimetre-perfect magazine profile. Filler lasts months and is charged in clinic, not in theatre.
Just Clinic Istanbul organises the stay in Istanbul. The surgeon named on your written quote is the person who operates. To find out how other patients experienced chin surgery with Just Clinic Istanbul’s experienced team — the first days, the strap and the weeks after flying home — you can read our blog article on facial balance and recovery.
Who is chin surgery for?
Surgeons usually consider people who are bothered by a receding or weak chin, who are close to a stable weight, and whose bite does not need a different jaw operation first. A cosmetic procedure of this kind is not routinely NHS-funded.
The operation is often postponed if the bite needs orthognathic work, if you smoke and the team has asked you to stop, or if a long-term condition makes healing less safe. None of this is a promise that you are suitable. That decision is made after front and profile photographs, your history and a personal medical assessment.
What the operation aims to do
The realistic aim is a chin that sits in better balance with the nose and the neck. The result is not the same on every face, and no clinic can guarantee a particular millimetre or look. An implant is often reversible; moving the bone is not. Weight change and further injury can alter the profile you see after the initial recovery.
Techniques used
The surgeon chooses implant or bone from your profile, not from a package name.
Chin implant: a silicone implant or another agreed material. Quicker, and often reversible. Guide band 2,300–3,800 EUR.
Bony genioplasty: your own bone is advanced and fixed with mini-plates. More theatre time. Guide band 3,500–5,200 EUR.
Adding rhinoplasty or double-chin liposuction under the same anaesthetic raises the amount and can exceed 5,200 EUR. This page is chin surgery only, not a profiloplasty (nose and chin in the same sitting).
How long the operation takes
Theatre time is usually 1 to 2 hours. An implant can be shorter. A bony genioplasty can take longer. Combined operations add time. The written plan is the one that counts.
Anaesthetic
Chin surgery is done under general anaesthetic, or sometimes local anaesthetic with sedation for a straightforward implant. If a different plan is safer given your medical history, the anaesthetic team explains that before the day.
Hospital stay
You usually go home the same day or stay 1 night in hospital. That is not the same as the total time in Istanbul. A chin strap is fitted before you leave the ward.
How long to stay in Istanbul
Plan 3 to 5 nights in the city. That window covers the consultation, the operation, the strap check and clearance to fly. Five to seven or seven to ten nights belong to other procedures, not this one. The hospital night, if there is one, sits inside those nights; it does not replace them. Discharge is signed by the surgeon — it is not an advertising date.
What the package includes
The written package is usually one figure for surgery, hospital and the hotel during check-ups. That is how an all-inclusive chin surgery package in Turkey for someone travelling from the UK is usually structured. The quoted price covers that stay — it is not a lower price based on fewer nights. Ask for the list in writing before the deposit.

What to do — and not do — before surgery
What to do
Send front and profile photographs and a clear history — including previous chin treatment — so you have a written quote before you book flights.
Plan soft food for the first days. You will not want to chew hard.
Arrange someone to help you. A chin strap is worn at first.
Follow the hospital’s fasting instructions on the day if a general anaesthetic is planned. That list comes from the ward, not from a blog.
What not to do
Do not stop or start medicines — including blood-thinners, anti-inflammatories or supplements — on your own. The surgeon and anaesthetic team tell you what to change and when.
Do not smoke if the team has asked you to stop. Smoking raises the risk of poor healing. How long to stop is their instruction.
Do not treat filler as the same operation.
Do not expect a millimetre-perfect profile from a drawing.
Recovery
Two timelines matter, and they are not the same.
Daily life and desk work. You wear a chin strap for the first days. Chew gently and eat soft food. Light, desk-based work is often possible in 2 to 4 weeks. Swelling and tightness are expected. An osteotomy needs more rest than a straightforward implant.
Full recovery and sport. Harder exercise and anything that could knock the chin wait longer. Most people wait about four to six weeks before the team clears unrestricted training. The profile keeps settling for months; the shape you see after the initial recovery is not the final one.
Your own pace depends on implant versus bone, your job and how you heal. Follow the written aftercare, not a generic calendar.

How much does chin surgery cost in Turkey in 2026?
+
As of September 2026 the chin surgery Turkey price on this page is 2,300–5,200 EUR. Implant and bony genioplasty sit in that band. The written quote is what you pay.
When can I fly after chin surgery?
+
When the surgeon discharges you, usually inside the 3 to 5 nights in Istanbul. Five to seven or seven to ten nights belong to other procedures, not this one.
Are flights included in the package?
+
Flights are usually extra. Check the written quote. Book flexible dates in case discharge is delayed.
What is the difference between an implant and a bony genioplasty?
+
An implant is quicker and often reversible. A bony genioplasty moves your own bone and fixes it with plates. Theatre time and the quote are higher. The surgeon decides after photographs.
Is filler the same as chin surgery?
+
No. Hyaluronic acid lasts months and is charged in clinic, not in theatre. This page is surgical only.
How does chin surgery in Turkey compare with a UK private quote?
+
UK private care is usually surgery alone: implant 3,500–6,500 EUR equivalent and osteotomy 5,000–8,000 EUR, quoted in pounds, without hotel. A Turkish package can include hospital or same-day discharge, strap, transfers and hotel during check-ups. Compare the same items. Savings are not guaranteed.
