I have a butt chin and I hate it! It seems that it is more cost effective to go with an implant (vs. fillers), but I have been reading that an implant won’t correct a “split/butt chin” and could make it worse. I have also been reading about the muscles bunching up over the implant. I’m wondering if fillers would even help a chin like mine, as I don’t really have a dimple to fill but a dip or a groove and the right side of the “butt chin” is a little larger than the left side. HELP!
