I definitely have a weak chin and not much jaw definition but could I get a pretty could result with only a chin implant or would by implant not be so noticeable due to the fat around chin/jaw? In some photos I'm looking down which makes my fat more noticeableOne surgeon suggested neck lift but I don't feel ready to do that..

Answer: Chin implant versus genioplasty and chin liposuction The photos show a significantly recessed chin. In cases of recession of this magnitude, I recommend a sliding genioplasty over an implant. The implant works well with mild to moderate recession but tends to look masculine when the implant is large or extra-large. In either case, I would highly recommend simultaneous jawline and submental liposuction. Both surgeries are performed in our office with intravenous anesthesia and take about an hour. Most young patients return to work in 3-5 days. The surgery does not affect your bite or require braces.
