I had a chin implant 6 months ago, I got a medium size silicone extended anatomical type, I liked that it improved my profile but I feel my chin is still under-projected, I know my jaw is weak and I have a deep labio-mental fold but my bite is ok and I don't want sliding genioplasty, Which implant would help me to get a little more projection without making my front face too square or increasing the labiomental fold too much?, Large size extended anatomical or medium size Flowers Glove type?
