Chin implant too big or too high? 6 years post op.

May 15, 2018

I had a chin implant 6 years ago. It was placed intraorally and implant has wings. Does it look too big or placed too high? Perhaps it has moved up as I have read is common with intraorally placed implants. I can also feel a slight bump on my left jaw which makes me think the wing is misplaced. Is revision recommended?
