Genioplasty revision risks? (Photo)

January 6, 2024
Asked By:sage101 in New York, New York

I got a sliding genioplasty with a synthetic bone graft a year ago. The results are awful, I have a huge gap and step off in my labiomental fold. Along with the bad aesthetic results, I also have chin ptosis when I smile and have extreme tightness in my labiomental fold that’s unrelenting. I want a revision but I’m scared of lip ptosis due to my mentalis muscle being stretched out. Is this a real possibility? What are my risks?
