Posted under Chin Implant q&a

Is this swelling after removal permanent or will it subside?

lcmadden
I had a medium chin implant put in a few months ago and removed it about 2 weeks ago, however my chin still has the shape of the chin implant and some augmentation and I'm wondering if this is permanent or will it subside and how long if so? Really would like my chin to go back to the same size and shape it originally was.
