What kind of x-ray can I get to see my chin implant?

At my practice, I commonly send my patients to get a CT scan in order to get the exact positioning of a previous chin implant.  I also use a CT scan when designing custom implants.
I hope this helps!

I like a 3-D CT scan to evaluate the position of the implant. It will show up on the scan and in 3-D it can be evaluated in several dimensions. Good luck

Dear h_s_84,A facial CT scan would be the best test to show the position of a chin implant. Ask your surgeon to order this for you. Best regards,Nima Shemirani

dear patient: you might want to get a CT Scan and your physician can write a prescription for it! A facial CT scan might run a little expensive.  Hope this helps

Dear h_s_84,
X-ray are a good imaging technique for bones, they will not show the implants properly. A high quality CT scan or an MRI is required for a visualization of chin implants, but they are expensive imaging techniques. You might consider a consultation with another plastic surgeon if you aren't satisfied with the current one.

A 3D CT scan will show unequivocally all aspects of your chin implant including its precise location on the bone.

The implant is "in place" in the sense it is centered and sitting over your chin, but it is not angled properly (too low) and is a poorly chosen shape for your face as noted from your photos.
