Which kind of chin augmentation is best? i wanted a chin implant, but my doctor is saying that cutting my chin bone and moving it is a better option for me. i dont like the idea of cutting my bone. cant an implant do the same thing?

Chin augmentation: Chin augmentation can be done by an implant or bone movement in the good hands may give more of a permanent result.

Chin augmentation: Surgical augmentation with bone moving may be good in expert hands. Implant may not be bad but, it has its problems too.
