I went to a plastic surgeon to ask about a chin implant and he told me that I am not a candidate. I have a really weak chin due to my jaw. I can have jaw surgery but I am not because I don't want to do a really big surgery. He said that having a chin implant will alter my face and look like a bump on my chin. I am confused.
Answer: Chin implant is a solution for a receding chin A chin implant is a solution for a receding chin and they come in multiple shapes, sizes and forms. The newer chin implants are a little longer and wrap around the entire front part of the chin. The old style chin implants were short, placed in the front of the chin and gave the chin a look of having a bump. It is probably best to have another consultation.

Answer: Large chin implants and dental or mandibular erosion Chin implants can exert a push forward as well as a backward force. To clafrify, if you have a very small chin it may require a large implant to make a difference. Not only will this look like a bump but the stretching of the tight skin will also exert tremendous force pushing backards on the implant. Over time this can cause the underlying chin bone (mandible) to erode with possible dental injury.
