How Does Weight Loss and Gain Affect the Look of a Chin Implant?

Asked By:Jsc7199 in San Diego, CA

When I had my chin implant I weighed between 260-270 pounds and at that time the implant looked really good. However my weight now is 230 and the look of the chin implant is not so good. My face appears sunken in a bit from the weight loss. Is this normal and what can be done besides gaining the weight back or removing the chin implant?
