Where is the Best Incision for Chin Implant: Through Mouth or Under Chin?

June 23, 2010
Asked By:2229anon in england

My surgeon said i can have under the chin or through the mouth. My surgeon recomends going through the mouth as he feels very confident about it and there will be no scar, but does admit it is easier to do under the chin and less chance of infection. What do you think would be the best option?
