Possibility of injecting Juvederm on silicone implant chin? (Photo)

I have many patients who require correction for asymmetry and Juvederm works extremely well for this. As with any injection there is a low rid of infection. Best,  Dr. Green

Dear saahaar21,

Thank you for your clinical post and
photograph. Chin asymmetry following
insertion of a silicone implant is not uncommon. Often it can be made worse by pre-existing
asymmetries or failure to recognize them.
If the chin implant has been stable and there are no signs or symptoms
of an infection then topical soft tissue fillers can be used on top of the
silicone implant to provide more symmetry.
These can be Hyaluronic acid sugar gels such as Juvederm, Restylane,
Perlane, biostimulatory fillers or even fat grafting.

There are some risks such as implant
infection, extrusion and failure, but these are rare. Oral antibiotic prophylaxis would generally
also be recommended at the time.

I hope this information is of some
assistance and best of luck.
