Even with swelling shouldn't my chin look at least look a bit smaller than before? (Photos)

I am sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your results. At only 1-day post-op, you are still very early in your healing process. It is far too early to view your results as final as swelling can persist for several weeks after liposuction. Give yourself some more time to heal and reevaluate your results in a month or so. In the meantime, I recommend that you discuss any concerns with your surgeon; he or she is best equipped to answer any questions regarding your case. Best of luck!

Hi there and thanks for your questions and photos! As the other surgeons have mentioned, you are only post op day one and have plenty of healing to go.  It can take up to 4-6 months for full swelling to diminish.  I recommend wearing a compression band for a few weeks to help reduce swelling and provide comfort.  I also suggest regular follow ups with your surgeon to ensure adequate healing. Best of luck and hope this helps!

Hello and thank you for your question. One day is too soon to see the results you are expecting. The tissue is too swollen for it too look much different than before, and at times it may look worse than before. Follow all of your surgeons directions by the letter, and do not attempt any home remedies to relieve the swelling. Only take the prescribed medication. Hope you heal fast and see results soon!

Dear Pia1,
I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a liposuction surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides  you will be able to see the final result of your surgery.

Thank you for your question. After one day, you are still experiencing swelling after the chin liposuction. Please remain patient and follow the instructions provided by your board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

 You should not expect to see improvements early after liposuction including one-day postop. While most patients haven't developed the majority of swelling this early. Maximum swelling is usually seen 5 to 7 days after the procedure you are not healed yet and need to wait at least six weeks  before assessing results and preferably three months to obtain final results. Be patient. Best, Mats Hagstrom M.D.
