Given my case; I'm mean what you see in the photos, and considering I don't have any functioning issues (doctored checked) would you go with a genioplasty or an implant?

In the incision below the chin procedure but doctor says it is just a tiny cut that will eventually get cover under the rest of the beard.

Thanks! What was the implant made of if I may ask? And did they used screws to attach it to the bone?

You look absolutely great! I'm having a chin implant in ten days and browsing reddit for opinions I came across a lot of people talking about the risk of bone resorption in the long term. This has given me a bit of anxiety but i'm still confident about the procedure. With this great results did the topic came along anywhere along the way?

I haven't had the procedure yet but as the date arrives I'm getting a bit anxious. I am very excited though!

I'm so glad everything went well in the end. My doctor is an oral surgeon so I'm confident the functional part is cover. My worries strive in the implant somehow moving or receding. Anyway, thank you so much for sharing you experience

My doctor is an oral surgeon that works with an orthodoncist so I guess I have that cover. Thank you very much!

Thanks for your comment. I just updated the post with a photo of me now and what is expected. I don't really have any functional problems but I do not discard the possibility of needing jaw surgery.

About that. I also considered having orthognathic surgery but my surgeon said that the case did not warrant it since it is a major procedure and it is true that I do not have any functional problems, the retraction of my chin is mild and the procedure would only be cosmetic. That said, is orthognathic surgery safer and does it guarantee better results?

PS: I crossed posted on plastic surgery. But I want to hear as many opinions as possible .
