Chin implant removal - is it worth the unknown results?

April 25, 2017
Asked By:mimi2424 in Sacramento, CA

I had a chin implant placed in December 2015. I am unhappy with how it looks when I smile. It is crooked and my bottom lip goes flat with the chin. I want to remove it but have been reading that there will be ptosis and sagging skin. Is this the case for most patients? If so can fillers fix this?
