My Chin Implant Made my Face Look Asymmetrical - California

  • Not Sure
  • Cost: $2,700
  • California

I had a chin implant a year ago, everything went...

I had a chin implant a year ago, everything went well, the healing process took well over 5 months. I realized the skin where the doc had the incision became very thin afterwards (got a little better now), what I also noticed is that it made the right side of my chin bigger more prominent which made my face look a little undefined and asymmetrical. Is there a way I can correct this without having to go through the whole process again?

I did this chin implant thing because he recommended to me. He said it would complement my Rhinoplasty, I had no idea I had a smaller chin until he pointed it out!

Am I being too self conscious now or is it because my bone structure underneath the implant is asymmetrical?

(My doctor is considered one of the best plastic surgeons in New York city)

Your opinion is appreciated!
thank you in advance...

Great review?

Would love to see your before pics! I don't think you look asymmetrical at all.

I can see what you mean i think it's A LITTLE asymmetrical but overall i think it looks good. I have heard you can get fillers, maybe you can just fill in a bit to get the symmetry back and not have to endure another surgery!
Overall i think it looks good and you can only see if you look closely!! :)
