SILICONE VS. POREX CHIN IMPLANTS

Question:

What is the difference between a silicone and a porex chin implant and which is better?

Answer:

I use silicone and goretex (e PTFE) chin implants. Both are very well tolerated. The e PTFE is softer then the silicone which may be an advantage as it should cause less pressure on the chin bone.
