Chin Implant - Round Face w/ Recessed Chin and Butt Chin

I'm 25 years old and I always felt some type of way with my butt chin. I never hated it but I didn't mind spending money to make it disappear either. People always compliment me about them but I'm just like.. Thanks :) I started doing research and came across chin implant! I never knew such a thing existed. Especially the fact that they can help a recessed chin. If there was one thing I didn't like about myself, it would have to be my recessed chin. I always felt a little subconscious when I see a picture of my profile from the side. I always wanted that nice jawline and more shape to my round face.

I honestly didn't want to write this review and thought it's a little embarrassing. I remembered it being a little difficult to find information so I wanted to be helpful to those that are looking into getting a chin implant. So here I am :) Anyways, I got my chin implant on July 23rd, 2015. It's been officially two weeks and 5 days since the surgery. No bruising, no swelling. No regrets!

I'm still going to write about my journey before my implant since I didn't get a chance to. I promise I will post pictures!

So I started stalking real self to find a doctor. I came across Dr. Chase Lay (from San Jose) on real self . He's very involved with real self! He answers a lot of questions about chin implants and he posted a video under someone's question. I decided to watch the video and I really like that he has and works with a lot of Asian patients so I felt like he understood how I felt (I'm cambodian, btw).

I contacted him through real self and waited for a reply ever so patiently. Two weeks later and no response.. but I didn't want to give up hope! I was on Instagram and searched #chinimplant and found Dr. Chase Lay's instagram! I said [RS bleep] it and decided to just DM him. He apologized and answered my questions then gave me his office's information if I do decide to schedule.

I have a butt chin. You can't really tell from the front but you can definitely tell from the side. A recessed chin AND a butt chin? Ugh, how annoying! Unfortunately, I don't have any before pictures of myself from the side that shows my butt chin :( Just one that I took in my room when I DM'd Dr. Lay but the lighting was bad so It didn't show..

Anyways, I told my boyfriend how I wanted to get a chin implant because it kinda will correct my butt chin (and the other reasons too). He was kinda mad at me and didn't support it at all because he said he loooooooves my butt chin and I'm beautiful and he loves me just the way I am.

That's cute. Still gonna get it tho! I kept talking about the surgery and how I really wanted it and when I should set up an appointment since I'm a full time student and a mommy. He saw that I really wanted it and said that he doesn't want me to do it but if that's what I really want then he will support it.
