It’s took a while but I’m finally falling in love with my implant. I can’t stress enough that it will take time. So much time that you’re conscience of it as each day goes by. I’m thinking maybe one day getting another opinion on it but for now I’m happy with how I am. Im not trying to put anyone off but please do your research before going through with any form of cosmetic surgery as it’s not a simple modification but your mentally changing your perception of yourself. With that in mind please try and find love in how you look. Well that’s me done for a while.

Wow, it’s been a whole year.
Well, his year has been good to me. I’m very lucky that my surgeon placed this implant so well and I’ve had no issues. I was never too sure if this implant was the right one, given the other outcomes of patients and their chin advancements compared to mine. Given advice from people they’ve told me to wait a year and see if mentally ill come to accept it. Right now to mark a year after my op. I don’t think this is entirely right and I will be looking into a revision in order to get the projection I would like. I’m going to be honest now, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it’s not too far away from how we perceive ourselves. Mentally I wasn’t ready for an operation although having done a year of research, (maybe I might had seen it differently if I saw myself now with how I wished to look). It’s a 50/50 gamble with plastic surgery and each time I believe you have work done, you’ll see another ‘flaw’ in yourself you’d like to change. Please be prepared that the way you look at yourself will change, maybe better or worse? I’m a hypocrite as I do still want to change my appearance but everyone is beautiful it’s hard to see it in yourself but it’s true. Please be careful when changing appearance through surgery and be aware that you won’t always get what you desired but give your mind time to accept the change.

I know exactly what you're talking about--but I think you have a very wise approach to your surgeries. You've clearly thought long & hard about about aesthestics, but you still have a realistic attitude towards surgery. That's commendable ;)
Anyway, here are two implant surgeries that might be useful to you:
1) https://www.realself.com/review/indianapolis-chin-surgery-custom-wrap-jaw-implant-buccal-lipectomy-lipo#
2) https://www.realself.com/review/boston-ma-custom-facial-implants-chin-jaw-cheek-rhinoplasty-fat-removal
They both had custom implants though, and both of these procedures took place in the US, where medical care is sooooooo expensive ;(((

I’m still not sure. I’m happy that there’s something visible but it’s not to the extent in my mind I would’ve liked. I’ve been told I can go up to an XL Terino style 1 but it’ll only provide 3 mm difference which after consulting my surgeon, I’m going under the knife again for 3mm. I’m not sure if there are bigger ones or if I can add an implant onto an implant?
To be honest it’s a love/hate feeling. I love that it’s provided me with a chin and judging by my past photo here, it really shows.
Another way around this would be to have a genioplasty but that might be more harm than good. Plus paying for the expenses of a chin implant and a genioplasty would put me out of pocket for a very long time. It’s tough when it circulates my mind.
This picture does put more of a smile to my face. I now want to shave my hump on my nose down conservatively

I think you look Great. It looks so natural. You should wait for a little bit and if your new chin does not convince you go for it. My humble opinion is that you look Great. I love it.
So much better!
you are a candidate for genioplasty. in this procedure the frontal part of the chin is split and fixed in a fronter postion which is decided. Projection of over 1cm for example is possible. It feels more natural to have no silicone in the chin. I did this procedure in Germany by Prof. Wangerin / Dr. Kretschmar, maxillofacial surgeon did it. This procedure is very popular in Seoul, Korea as well. For example amt VIP plastic surgery center korea.
You look great! I think with more projection your chin would look huge. Dont look for perfection, improvement is good enough and this is definitely a BIG improvement :)
Thank you for the comment! But looking at your implant I’m looking for something exactly like that. Posting questions on here PS have told me that my chin is still weak. I’m thinking of adding a smaller implant or just a bit of filler so my chin is inline with my lips
If money is not a problem, then i would go for the sliding geneoplasty. I think that will give you the most natural look & the best results. But thats my opinion :) But like i've said before, I think you look great. I know it can become an obsession the whole chin thing. I wish you all the best!
You are right, your chin is still farther back than the "vertical line" that they use to measure our facial proportions, but the thing to really look at is how much more normal your profile looks now. You no longer have that odd look. If you really want more projections, go for it. But don't doubt that it doesn't make a difference because it looks great :) Goodluck.
Dude, you look so much better it's incredible. You look almost like a different person. I think it looks very natural and you look like a handsome guy. I would follow the other people's advice and live with this for a while and see how you feel. BTW I think getting a shorter haircut might make your jawline more pronounced and "manly" if that's what you're after.
