Sliding Genioplasty - Full Reversal?

July 24, 2011
Asked By:Anongg

I had this done 3 months ago and I am not liking the results as my lower face looks fatter and my smile has changed for the worse plus my chin bulges out of my face and the right side of my chin has a notch. Also my face looks longer which I hate. My surgeon wants me to wait at the 5 month mark rather than make a hasty decision to reverse it. My question is will I look exactly the same prior to getting this surgery done if I get a reversal? What are the side effects? Best time to reverse it?
