Asked By:Sociable828242 in Chicago, Illinois

I got a chin implant removed 6 months ago, I only had the implant for a year, but my mandible muscles are causing tension.I got a rhinoplasty surgery about a year ago, the surgeon recommended getting a chin implant due to my facial structure. A few months after, I ended up getting so many issues. My mouth hurt, I couldn't smile, the implant irritated my skin, and I got a lot of pimples on my chin. I had to find another doctor to remove it. However, my chin isn't the same. I have a small visible pocket, and when I speak, I can feel my muscles causing tension. What can I do to make my chin feel better?
