Average lateral jaw implant size is really 5mm ?

i've met 4 surgeons, all told me average augmentation is 4 to 5mm, and that 5mm is already big improuvement.

How then in internet or USA implants are about 9 to 15mm per side ?!

can 10mm be too much in some cases ?

5 to 10mm it's like 6ft to 7ft guy, huge difference


For jawline improuvement can 5mm be enough ? 0.2 inch add..

It's about your proportions. I've seen implants with 9mm that look good, and implants that are smaller look terrible.

X-ray analysis + experience + aesthetic sense, but we've established that your plastic surgeon is shit.
