Chin Implant sitting too low? (Photo)

Asked By:shroper

I had a large mittelman prejowl implant placed via submental about 4 weeks ago. It seems that it's projecting down rather than out, and during too low. My surgeon agreed to do a decision free of charge. Do you think moving it up will improve the appearance abd give it a more forward rather than downward projection? Just looking for a second opinion? Should I consider a different shape?
