I had a deep plane face and neck lift with chin implant last august. I look fine with a straight face but when I smile my chin is rounder now and I lost my pointed chin, my face looks fatter due to the rounded look. Am I good candidate to have it removed or has it been too long? Also is there a possibility of having the implant made smaller to keep the protrusion and remove the rounded part? Also, would removal bring back my jowls?

Monthly financing or payment plans are definitely an option. Every office has a different service tier of financing plans that they offer. You'll just have to find an office that you feel comfortable with to provide procedure with the financing plan that fits your budget.
