A member asked:
Does the actual chin bone change shape? would the chin become flatter if you pluck your lip up too much? can the chin bone become less pointer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. The chin bone: being a bone, once you've reached adulthood, is structurally strong. Any changes in the appearance of the chin is a result of changes in the soft tissues above the bone or in the muscles, particularly at and below the lower lip. Dr. Anne
