Hi, Is it normal to have tingling sensation in chin after 3 years of silicone chin implants ? I get them occasionaly. There is no pain or numbness and I can feel my lips completely. How can this be diagonosed to make sure its not anything to do with implants ? Thanks
That tingling you are feeling is, undoubtedly, from the implant and the surgery. It is nothing to worry about and very common. You have no functional problems and I would put your mind at ease.
All the best,
Tal Raine MD FACS
A chin implant can be made of different sizes and substances. Any implant will have very limited affect on the vertical height which is defined by the size of your jaw bone. Sometimes vertical height can be enhanced with a fat graft from the patient.
Best,
