subtle double chin

$3,700
i feel guilty about being ungrateful, so i haven't updated on here in months and months. what mostly bothers me is i have a bit of a double chin now. you can see it in the profile pics, and though it is perhaps relatively subtle, it bums me out. i think i look good when i smile, but otherwise, not very good. i'm going in to see dr. spiegel at some point soon, and i'll report on how that goes.

i am generally speaking not repulsed or bitter or anything about my outcome. but with the double chin effect im not sure i look any better than i did before, so i hope some improvement can be made that'll make me happier.

Spiegel was really great. I love his staff, too. I do think they could've gone over aftercare stuff with me a bit more. I really didn't anticipate how much pain I'd be in the first night.

You can get your chin lipo'd to fix your issue, I did that last year and it does work.
Thanks for your story. But there's a better safer way to get rid of the double chin. You can do a program like focus t25. Along with a slight calorie deficit you can drop at least 30lbs and that will really define your body and remove the roundness from your face. I'm a big surgery supporter but I don't agree with redgoddess68 some things should just be done the right way and doing as I mentioned will get rid of the double chin and have you looking better than ever. Good luck.
Agreed!
You look so much better -- I think it's a huge improvement. You're a really nice-looking guy. Congrats!
Hey, your result looks excellent. I understand you thinking you could have gone bigger but honestly, subtle is better and it's a great improvement. I have a question. I have been considering this procedure for a while now and would definitely go the intraoral route because I don't want scarring. My only concern is it changing my speech or mouth movement or smile at all. After you were fully recovered, does it all feel and sound 100% normal? Thanks so much.
You look like an ex boyfriend of mine...very handsome, btw. As far as your double chin, please take no offense, but you appear to be a bit overweight. I would bet some weight loss would fix your issue

You look great. The results look very natural.
It looks A LOT better than the before. But yes, you could have also gotten a bigger chin implant or a Sliding genioplasty.
I just looked through all your photos and you look great! Such a fab improvement, really natural! I think people get sucked into the 'this improvement looks good, but more would have been better' syndrome. But more is often too much.
Sorry posted too soon. You have a brilliant result. You're balanced now. Be confident! [RS bleep]
I think you look great very natural looking on you

direct before and after

I guess my feeling at the moment is given how small a change I really see, I am not sure if the pain and expense was worth it. I think if the implant had been bigger, or I had much more modest expectations of the result, I'd say it was worth it. So, your mileage my vary. :)

in fact, more often than not, i have to say to myself "yeah, this probably wasn't worth it, but it could've been. oh well."
I feel these 2 before and after pictures show a significant difference in your side profile. About buccal fat removal, I think guys tend to have better results than women. The chiseled look
Don't worry you look like a total different person!
Actually, I think it looks really well balanced and you look very handsome. I like the shape of your face a lot with the implant. I think you made the right choice.
While your chin and jawline themselves don't look noticeably different, I've looked through all the photos and can tell you that it has improved the balance between your chin, lips, and nose. Your nose looks a bit less prominent and your lips look more evened out compared to that first before photo you took.
