Is my labiomental crease too deep for a small chin implant? (photo)

Computer Imaging before chin implant surgery is more reliable than before a filler, since we know the exact dimensions of a chin implant that would be inserted. I think it's very helpful for patients when they can visualize what to expect, before undergoing the surgery. I hope this helps!...
