WORTH IT$3,750
Wanted a squarer more masculine chin and a better profile that wasn't convex. I went to Peter Truong in Fresno, CA after meeting with 2 other surgeons. My criteria for a surgeon was that he or she had to have done multiple chin implants on males, the reviews of the chin implants would have to be something that I liked and could see myself treated by the same surgeon, and it had to be with a surgeon that I trusted. Peter Truong checked all of these and a bonus is that his pricing was reasonable.
I felt very taken care of during the surgery and felt practically nothing, even though I could hear what was going on they played some of my favorite music to keep me distracted. Immediately after the surgery I looked great only slightly swollen. No one noticed the that I had surgery they just thought I looked better but didn't know why. Went to visit my friend and when I was leaving I asked him if my face looked any different and he wasn't sure then he tried to guess then I told him I got my chin done he was like I thought you looked different I just didn't know how, it looks good, that's how surgery is suppose to be no one should know that you had anything done but you look great and it feels hard, you look great. If I don't tell my friends and family they would have never suspected I had my chin done although they notice that I look better, but never have I gotten a weird look from someone staring at my face to what I've done with my face or any startled reaction or any raised brows. Sometimes they don't even believe me until I show them the scar and if I show them the before photos they really notice the improvement. I looks natural and that's one of the best things about this. Oh and since my face is better proportioned my nose looks like it fits my face better which is a huge bonus!

Congrats your results are amazing! What implant type and size did you get?

Nice! Quick question on the recovery. How long did it take until you were able to speak normally?
January 9, 2019
that was right away. maybe the first three days I didn't move as much, not too sure though
January 24, 2019
Took me into my second week till I was 100% speaking normal. I kept my surgery a secret and still have but when I went back to work that second week, some people noticed I wasn't quite talking right. I just avoided talking as much as possible during that time.

a year and 8 months later. The swelling has gone down completely but I think I liked how it looked the first 10 months post op. Maybe that's in my head because the pictures look similar haha. I still love it to this day and would do it over again in a heartbeat.

Congrats! Your results look very natural. I think you look great. Maybe as the swelling went down the chin got a bit "smaller" but also sharper.
