Chin implant it too big and makes my face look longer. Will it get better? Would steroid injections help? (photos)

Asked By:Intellectual764854 in Washington, District of Columbia

It’s been 6 months. I had buccal fat removal and a chin implant. If it’s swelling will steroid injections help? If not, what are the options to fix this? It made me cry the other day since it looks so mannish compared to my old chin - it looks great from the side but straight on I hate it. Could it be residual swelling?
