The change is subtle, like I just got a little more definition and lost baby fat. Very happy with my results!

you look gorgeous!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like the results!
It looks so good! Was your implant the extended one? Im scared it will add width to my face but yours looks fine.
No it wasnt actually it was a size small, thank you for your positive feedback! It won't add significant width to your face, it depends on the size of the implant, good luck on your operation!
Hi I am considering a similar procedure. Your results are fantastic. Def looking into Dr. Chung.
Thank you! Im sure you'd love her as your doctor and thank you for your positive feedback! Good luck on your procedure!!!
Did Dr. Chung do the procedure under local anthestic? If so did you feel anything and how was recovery ?
Yes she did! I didn't feel a single thing, it felt just like a dentist appointment, the two procedures happened in less than an hour, recovery took 35 days, in 35 days was when I felt all tension disappear and I was then fully healed. In the first week is when all bruising and swelling takes place, by the 3rd week is when you start to see results!
Thanks so much! I have an appt with her in Feb!
Hello I just had a quick question about the incision. Was the incision made under the chin or on through the mouth? Also how well did it heal? Any scarring?

44 days after

I was told buccal fat results aren't seen til the third month. I'm on my second. Also, not too much buccal fat was removed to keep me looking youthful.
Chin implant swelling recovery is done I believe. No more tightness of the face, the incision is slightly tender but overall I completely even forgot I have an implant. By the 35th day was when I realized all tension was gone

Your results are exceptional. Please post more profile pictures to show changes in profile. I would love to use the pics to discuss with my MD. Thank you.
I live how your chin doesn't come to a point and it still squared off it looks so natural and perfect that's exactly what I want
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! Good luck on your operation!
You look so great! I'm thinking about getting the exact procedure (chin impant, plus maybe buccal fat removal). Looking at your results make me want to do it more than ever!
Thank you for your kind words!!! They're very minimally invasive procedures so if you really feel like they're the best for you, I support your decision! I'm so glad you liked my results!
Wish luck on that's

Dr. Jeannie Chung achieved exactly what I wanted,...

Dr. Jeannie Chung achieved exactly what I wanted, a slimmer face. She absolutely did an outstanding job on improving the balance of my face and I am definitely satisfied. She was easy to talk to and absolutely professional and sweet.
I have a round face with chubby cheeks and no chin and the procedures she suggested were perfect for the balance I needed for my face.
Her entire staff was kind, friendly and helpful, especially Julie the manager who thoroughly explained the procedure and the healing process for any questions I may have. Their office is easy to reach whenever you need to call.
They even accommodated my request to have my procedure and consultation done sooner despite their super busy schedule.
The procedure went smoothly and quickly, only took about an hour and a half.
Bedside manner was great, they make sure that your safety, comfort and satisfaction are priority.
The healing process is still ongoing but most of my swelling went down in the first two weeks. I am now on my third week
I already love the results. Dr. Chung is absolutely talented. I will be definitely going back for more

Hello, I loved your result. I have the same type of features, the round and short face. I would love to know the size of your implant, if you know it. And please, come back whenever possible with pictures. Thank you and good luck.
Thank you! The size is a medium implant, I also have to mention that if you feel your chin, there are some indents. My indents were asymmetrical and the implant really helped make my face have more symmetry. I will defn be putting more pictures to give people the final results, I am now on week 4 and a half
Your results look great! Really can see a big difference. Great choice of procedure. Sometimes is difficult to find the right procedure to enhance the area you don't like. Really great.
Thank you so much for your kind words! You're absolutely right and my doctor did a fantastic job! Have a great day!
How are you doing? Recovery going well? I will go on my first appointment next month in the US (I live in France) and will show him your picture!;-)
I absolutely don't feel a tight face anymore and recovery went far! Good luck with your procedure!
Also thank you for asking!
I agree with Plastic918 - the procedures you had look great. I went to see Dr Chung for a consult re: a neck lift and she recommended the same procedures as you had (in addition to neck). I'm not sure what to do though as I never thought about my chin and cheeks before. Would you be so kind as to post "after" photos with the same non-smiley expression as your "before" photo? I'm curious to see the difference the buccal fat removal made in your cheeks when not smiling. That said, they look fabulous when you smile!
Thank you so much! And not a problem at all! I was told that my buccal fat results wouldn't kick in til the third month and I'm only on my second. I wish you luck on your procedure, and I already know you're going to love your results. Dr. Chung is absolutely fantastic
Thank you for posting the non-smiling after photo! I can clearly see the difference from the buccal fat removal/reduction and it looks great! Shows off your gorgeous cheekbones!
Hi BostonMAgal- I too saw Dr Chung for a NL and instead she recommended a chin implant. I thought about it for a while and decided to put my trust in her judgement. I haven't written a review yet because I am only 5 weeks out. One thing you need to know is that chin implants can be shocking at first because of swelling, etc, but even with that my chin, along with some lipo under, is such a huge improvement. You wouldn't even believe my before and after. Some angles are a bit pointy, but I am giving it the full benefit of time for it and me to adjust. At worst I get a smalller implant (and I doubt I will)-one thing is certain and that is that I look 1000 x better and she knows what she is talking about!!
Thanks for sharing that. Glad to hear you are happy with the results! When you write your review, would love to see picture!
Can you please tell us what brand, size, shape your surgeon uses. Your results are so good. Thank you.
hi what type of anesthesia did she use? I love your results.
Hi there, thank you for your kind words, I believe she used local Anesthesia, and it felt like just going to the dentist
