I would like to get a chin implant for the side profile of my face, i hear chin implants are relatively quick and safe so it doesn't look fake, is this true? I'd also like to get a dimpleplasty maybe, I really don't want to over do it with cosmetic surgery, is a chin implant and dimpleplasty relatively safe and not fake looking?

Answer: Chin implant questions Hello! Yes, chin implants look very natural, changing the appearance much more from the side view than from the front. I prefer and extended implant as it looks more natural than a "button" type implant that just goes over the mentum, or front of the chin. Implants come in various sizes and there are several options for materials- silicone (silastic), e PTFE (Gore-tex) or porous polyethylene (Med Por). Some surgeons still use Merseline mesh. There are pluses and minuses to each type of implant- it is best to consult with a surgeon who has experience with different types to guide your selection. Good luck!
