Silicone Chin Implant size

[Penguino12]

Hello, does anybody have 3mm Chin implant before and after pictures of patients? I could not find specifically "3mm chin implant" transformations online. I am going to have chin implant surgery in this month and the plastic surgeon recommended me 3mm chin implant, however I do not think that will be enough nor it will have any significant changes. I measured it and I think I will be needing 4-5mm chin implant so the chin will be aligned with lower lip or slightly forward.

First I want to fix the chin and then the nose

genioplasty would be the better option imo

In my country genioplasty is not generally done, Maxillofacial Surgeons specifically do health related surgeries and not cosmetics unfortunately. Also it is very expensive for me as no insurance covers it, I will have to either go to turkey or some other country. So I just have chin implant as my savior

I really wanted medpor implants but could not find any plastic surgeon which does medpor implants.

Do not get an off the shelf silicone implant. They are almost never placed well since they don't conform to the underlying bone structure properly, and they remain somewhat mobile so they cause resorption. Just don't do it. Medpor, peek, genio

I am getting chin implant with very experienced surgeon, and the silicone implant will be from Germany. I completely get you too, I would love genio or medpor, however it is non-existent. And If I just sit here and think in some time I will get genio or medpor somewhere in other country, is just pure cope. I wanna ascend hard, so I gotta make changes while I can. I am already 23 years old

Ok man, but at least make sure it's stabilized by screws and check the placement with a cbct if it feels off. I've had goretex silicone and medpor implants, and silicone was by far the worst

 

[Penguino12]

Well no screws unfortunately they just insert it. You personally had chin implant?
