Possible to remove screws in silicone Chin Implant via submental approach? (photo)

Simply put, yes. They can be removed from externally. However, the question is, what are you trying to achieve? Why adjust the chin implant and why go external?

Dear LaHChloe33,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

While the screws may be angled in from the initial intraoral approach, a new submental approach can be used and both the implant and screws removed from that more inferior approach.

Plastic surgeons tend to approach chin and plants from one incision or the other.

Generally it’s better to follow the old incision pattern but that doesn’t mean someone couldn’t convert to an external approach.

This is simply one of those things you need to discuss one on one during in person consultations. Opinions will differ based on each providers philosophy, experience and training.

Best,
