Would It Be in my Best Interest to Have Chin Implants Before I Have Rhinoplasty?

How might procedures for my chin and nose impact each other?

A: Chin Augmentation is commonly done With a Nose Surgery

There is no reason to do a chin implant apart from a nose operation. Both operations are commonly done together and can restore balance to the face.

Yellow Sores in Mouth After Chin Implant / Lipo

Hello everyone. So i had a chin implant plus Lipo done under my chin on Friday. After the procedure the right side of mouth had developed yellow sores, they almost look like canker sores. So what am trying to figure out is this from the swelling or maybe the implant hitting the inside of the gum line. The right side hurts bad!! you can clearly see a discolored yellow line under the teeth. I've been on a all liquid insure diet plus water. I've been taking Vicodin, Zenox, and penicillin.

As helpful as your photograph is it is not a substitute for a direct examination. Based on the limited view of the incision on the right it appears consistent with a recently operated intra-oral incision without infection or exposure of the implant. I would tell you that the BEST thing to do is have your surgeon look at you. No advice you may get on line can match a direct examination.
