Chin is not smooth when mouth is open - Replace Chin Implant or add filler? (Photos)

Friendly60536Feb 3, 2026

I got a small chin implant 10 years ago and I have never had a smooth chin when my mouth is closed. It always looks orange peel like. Will a bigger implant make this any better? Is filler an option?

Based on your singular photo, there appears to be significant asymmetry of the lower 1/3 of your face, however, it is not clear if this is from your chin implant. Two of the most notable asymmetries are that your left nasolabial fold as deeper than your right, and your left lower lip appears...

Based on your photos, you appear to have adequate projection of your chin, so in that regard, I do not feel that it appears to be too small.
