How Soon Can Chin Implant Be Replaced or Removed?

Asked By:oaklandgirl in Oakland, CA

How soon can I have my Chin implant either removed or replaced with a smaller one? I don't want to wait a couple of months because I am turning 40 and would like to have another baby very soon. I was hoping to just have this procedure done and have it behind me. Please advise.
