I had a silicone chin implant placed 37 years ago. It became infected a month ago (unknown trigger). I was treated with a zpack. It appears the infection is gone, but I am concerned it will return, and I will need to have the implant removed. My question: I have read in some places on the internet that to avoid the development of chin ptosis, there must be some things done beyond simple removal. What is the proper procedure? I would like to avoid a Witch's chin. Anyone experienced in this?
