4 Day post op extra large chin implant, feeling unbearable pain, chin looks good, starting to worry. Percocet helps (photo)

It is normal to have some moderate pain and discomfort in the first few days following placement of a chin implant. But if the pain is excessive, this is abnormal and should be discussed with your surgeon right away. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck with the remainder of your recovery. 

It is not unusual that you would still be having pain 4 days after placement of a chin implant.  The pain could last a week or two, but it should be getting better with time.  If you feel the pain is worsening in any way, you should contact your surgeon.  

typically her worst pain is in the first 5 days of surgery.  This is usually pretty bad with large or extra-large implants that have been placed.  Follow up closely with you surgeon to ensure that there is not other inflammation or potential infection present.  Most likely this is normal postoperative pain.  You were not to be very comfortable for up to a week and even  in the coming weeks and months he will have occasional twinges of pain.Chase Lay, MDDouble board-certified facial plastic surgery
