It has been almost a week since I got chin implant, and although I am not in as much pain as I was right after surgery, I am still in enough pain that it is difficult to eat. I am just hoping that this is normal and not permanent. Can I expect this residual pain to go away eventually?
Answer: 2-3 weeks of chin pain after augmentation The pain tends to subside over the first two to three weeks after the surgery. The reason that the chin implant is painful is that it was placed on the bone underneath the periosteum. When implants are placed on the bone, the swelling, edema, and pain takes longer to heal and settle down. The pain usually disappears completely at approximately one month after the surgery.

Answer: Pain after chin implant lasts a couple of weeks As far as the pain after chin implant, it really depends on individual, but on average should subside after a week or so. You still might feel some sensitivity after that at the site of implantation, which is normal. It is important to take regularly recommended by your surgeon pain medication and follow his instructions to keep the incisions clean. Be alert; any redness and swelling might be a sign of an infection. In that case, contact your surgeon immediately. Pain could be a serious sign of malposition of implant and pinching on the nerve.
