I've had a chin implant for 5 years, it hasnt stopped feeling stiff and it hurts. I want to remove it but I am scared of how my appeareance will be after. I didnt really need a chin implant, a surgeon that botched my nose convinced me before my nose surgery. But I liked my chin better before the implant. My question is, if there is loose skin is there a way to fix that? I am 26 years old. Thank you.
