As a teen, I was told my chin would be coming in short and we should consider surgery. We never did, and I sort of regretted it as I got older. I was able to hide it mostly under a small beard, but I wondered often if it'd make me happier and more confident to have an implant.

Hard to say right now if it was the right choice. I will say it was a lot more pain than I expected, and right now I look pretty terrible. I can have a sense of humor about it because I know the swelling will go down, but I worry because I saw other reviews where they had great looking results immediately after.

Congrats! Do you know the type and size of the implant?

How was the implant put in? From under the chin or inside your mouth? I don't see anything under your chin and it doesn't look like you are swollen at all

i really appreciate the support everyone has given me :) i will find out from the doc the exact specs of the implant, but i can tell you all in a general sense it was bigger than normal and had more extended wings to the side than is normal. they actually sent away for it special order.

I think it looks way better after surgery. This is the first time I've even googled this surgery so I have not looked at pics of this procedure before. You look more attractive and masculine on the after pics.

I had a chin implant last year after years of contemplating. I am glad I finally went ahead and chose to do the surgery. I think your looks great!! Thanks for posting.
