Hi doctors. I am considering getting a terino square chin implant for a more masculine look but dont want to make the permanent commitment yet and was thinking about getting a radiesse filler before to test it out. If I do decide on an implant, does it matter if there is still filler in my face or should I wait until it has dissolved before I get the implant? Thank you
