How Do my Results Look So Far with my Chin Augmentation? (photo)

6 days post op. My chin is crooked when it wasn't before. My chin looks very different, I asked that my front chin shape not to change, but more concerned with my side profile definition. Feel like I have a completely different chin shape, generic as I would say. My jaw definition doesn't seem to have improved. Should I see more results with regards to side profile? Can crooked chin be a cause of swelling? Was this the correct procedure for what I wanted? Last pic of what I want to look like

Results at 6 days after chin augmentation

I would agree that at only six days after your chin augmentation, that there is still some swelling involved. It can take several months and sometimes up to a year to see the final result after a chin augmentation. The swelling you have now can definitely affect your current appearance and can make your chin look crooked. With time, things will improve, so I would re-evaluate your appearance again in a month or so.

Chin augmentation before and after

Dear Wikdlydlishus, After just 6 days, it is very early to tell It will look asymmetric/crooked because of the swelling Just give it time (several weeks) for all of the swelling to settle out It will look much better in a week, then even better in a month...etc Best regards, Nima Shemirani

Hey Rockingritu! Sorry I have been MIA. I am alomst 2 months post op and havent even had my 1 month post op :( I still have some numbness, but not much. How are you feeling now? I still have some bunching up when I pucker up so I need to find time for my post op to discuss with dr. So far I am happier and it is growing on me. I will have to post a new tread to add recent pics as I can not edit this post :(

hey W, hope you are doing good, I am now 3.5weeks post op, and numbness in my left lower lip hasn't improved at all. I get tingling sensation here all the time, and on pressing the implant at the left side, feels like a current is going to my left lower lip. did you have any such kind of feeling, I feel my implant is pushing my mental nerve and I am freaking out a big time.. :(
