Would a chin implant improve the appearance of my pointy chin? (photos)

Asked By:alidee5533 in Chicago, Illinois

I am considering options to improve the look of my chin. My face is heart shaped and my chin is quite pointy. When i smile, it really emphasizes how pointy it is and contributes to large smile lines. Would a chin implant be a good option to improve this? I l’m aware there are many types and am curious if a particular type would be best for me.
