Chin Implant or Sliding Genioplasty for a Recessed Chin that I want to Make More Masculine? (photo)

March 30, 2012
Asked By:rkelly109 in Tennessee, TN

I"m trying to decide between the two. Many doctors here in memphis perform the implant but It's hard finding any who do the sliding genioplasty. It looks from the picture that my chin is slightly recessed but in order to make it more masculine my chin needs to go down more and out which I hear is better with a sliding genioplasty. What do you think?
