Third Chin Implant and Platysma Repair

I don't know if I should start a new thread but I decided to get another chin implant. My third one now. After removing the last implant, I did not like the way my chin ended up looking prunish and wrinkled and buckled up in front. Not to mention that from the side, when I smiled, the scar beneath would cause me to look witchy. It really bothered me.
I will probably start a new post because I went to a different doctor for my third round.
If you are considering removal, don't expect that you are not going to have some issues. I was surprised that my face didn't bounce back to its original shape a hundred percent so please think long and hard before you insert an object into your chin.

I hope you re happy with your implant removal. I wanted to ask if you had filler in your upper lip. If so what doctor did you use and what did he use? Resty, juvederm?

Thanks. Yes, I have one cc of Restylane strategically injected in areas of the top lip, the vertical lines, and very little in bottom lip (first time I got injected there and the injection was in the corner of the lips.

Did your upper lip curl up after the lip injections or did it always curl up like that but not as full? What Dr. did your lip injections? Not that I can go to him or her as I live in New Orleans. What I like about your upper lip is that it looks like it filled in your cupid's bow. In the before pics you had a cupid's bow. I happen to hate cupid's bows and people think I am nuts, but I think they look aging. I can only see your 3/4 view of your lips but am I right? No more cupid's bow, or much smaller?

Hi how was your recovery? Do u think ur chin looks diff from pre op?

April 14, 2015
The bandages are off and there's still swelling which will take a few months to go away. I'll post pics. Yes, my chin does look different!
April 14, 2015
is it different in a good or bad way?how bout your smile and animation, does it goes back to your normal smile? and do u have the symptom like when u first put the implant in-cant smile,tightness, bottom lip numb and not moving? just scared that after removing need to go thru the same problem when putting in.

Hi there,
It almost looks like the implant is still there because of the swelling so I won't know the final results until a few months. My face looks shorter though because that's how it was originally. It doesn't look good or bad, just swollen. But if I had to pick between the two, it's on the better side.

Also, I can move my bottom lip again, speak normally again, smile widely, no pain.
April 16, 2015
thats good to know..how are you today, does your chin swelling reduce?were u able to show you lower teeth when the implant was in?and can u show your lower teeth now..i don't know this prob is because of nerve damage,or the implant pushing the chin and restrict movement

I'm sorry you had a bad experience. I to am going thru a difficult time with my chin implant shifting. The first one shifted and at 7 months my dr took it out and replace it with a new one. Same type but he carves it to customize.
I'm two months out and trying to figure out what the heck to do. The left tail has popped out, prolly not long after the surgery but with swelling you couldn't tell. It's actually poking my chin so that it feels uncomfortable. My lower lip also will not move down. Ive discused with dr, he said he'll take care and make it right. Said he thinks my chin muscles are so strong they are pushing the implant around. This last implant has tree screws in it.
I'm really worried that each time surgery takes place is risky for nerves, etc.

Yes, after the injection. Dr Richard Fleming is his name. I think I still have a cupid's bow, maybe more diminished. Not sure.
Im currently stuck w/ 7mm implant (too lrg lMO) dr sol'n-put small 3mm to prevent saggy unsatisfactory results if removed totally. But must wait for a 1 yr, for face to totally heal (had other sx too)for revision.
Will be following to see what I need to know and bring attention to my dr.
Good luck.
Much appreciated on any info u can post.
