it has shrunken somewhat and there seems to be a fibrous line under the skin extending out to my lower jaw.In addition, I have a lump on my neck that my doctor says is fatty tissue- could that be leakage from the silicon implant. Thanks
Answer: Ruptured Chin Implant ?? It is highly unlikely unless you were one of the few who had an old style liquid silicone filled chin implant. The best way to answer your concerns is to get 3D CT scan and look at the implant and the bone.

Answer: Ruptured chin implant? Some older style implants were fluid filled and this would be possible, but most likely the implant is settling into your bone and is hence less visible. You should see and experienced surgeon who can perform CT scan to evaluate the implant and underlying bone and provide options.Joe Niamtu, III DMDCosmetic Facial SurgeryRichmond, Virginia
