I have a concern about my look. As you can see in my side view photos, my chin is weak and my lips are so full, I can't identify causes of these problems. Could you please let me know how to resolve these issues. Thank you
Answer: Weak chin? Implants or fillers You have a few options to improve your chin and profile. If you’re not sure you’re ready for surgery, but still want to improve and strengthen your chin and profile, I’d suggest augmenting your chin with Sculptra and/or Voluma. If you like your new look, you can make it permanent with a chin implant. I hope that helps.

Answer: Chin implant Dear hungpk7777,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination, but based on your photos you might be a candidate for chin augmentation. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Answer: Full lips and weak chin, how can I fix this? Dear HungThanks for sharing your photos. A chin implant and lip reduction can address your concerns. A front view would be beneficial to better assess if a lip reduction would be of enough benefit. Both can be performed safely as outpatient surgery.

Answer: Full lips and weak chin, how can I fix this? Hello, Thanks for your question. Your lips are entirely normal. You do have a small chin though. That can be managed with chin augmentation using filler or chin implant. I would recommend that you consult with a facial cosmetic surgery specialist for more information. Good luck, Dr. Shah

Answer: How can you fix this? Without an exam your question cannot be answered. You will need to see an Oral/Maxillofacial surgeon to see if othognathic surgery, genioplasty or using an implant is best for your specific case. It should be noted that patients with severely weak jaws or abnormally functioning jaws may be better treated with other facial surgery (orthognathic surgery), although a chin augmentation may be an option at a later time. These patients should seek the advice of a plastic surgeon to determine which course is right for them. Here is some information to help you make this decision: Candidates for Chin Augmentation - Patients whose chin profiles are weak but have normally functioning jaws are candidates for Chin Augmentation. Many of these candidates have used injectable fillers in the past to strengthen the protrusion of their chins, but are looking for a permanent solution. If you are one of these patients, then you are a likely candidate for chin augmentation #weakchin #chinimplant
