Should My Medpor Chin Implant Be Burred Down or Replaced?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I had the Medpor chin implant in April 2024Dr. Eppley describes the burring down and replacement of Medpor implants in his blog. I would like to either have the original Medpor implant burred down to make it smaller or replaced with the smallest chin implant available

A: If the goal is substantial chin augmentation size reduction, which is what your description of the smallest chin implant available means to me, then removal of your existing Medpor chin implant and replacement with a small silicone chin implant would be the appropriate treatment choice.
