I feel like I liked it better when it was swollen and puffy as opposed to now after the swelling has gone down. I just don't see that much of an improvement!!! I thought I was clear to the doctor when I said I wanted it to be as big as possible...I never said I wanted a subtle difference. I clearly remember using the words "big", "masculine", "square" during the consult. Should I take it out and go bigger? Or is there a risk to re-inserting a larger one? It doesn't look masculine at all.

Answer: Too Small Chin Implant It is clear at this point after surgery that your result is not as big as you had desired. This is either a result of too small an implant being placed or that the sizes of available preformed chin implants are not big enough for your needs. It would be helpful to know exactly what implant style and size you received. That will determine whether any available larger chin implant size will work or whether a custom designed one is needed. There is no increased risk for exchanging to a new chin implant than their was with the original surgery.

Answer: Chin implant Most likely your surgeon placed the implant that fits your profile. It is not a good idea to place a large implant in a person who has a small jaw. This might create problems for the underlying bone. Also, the shape of the chin wouldn't look good.
