Is my Chin Implant Malpositioned?

Petunia37
I had a chin implant put in a month ago. On one side I can feel the end of the 'wing' on my gumline from the inside of my mouth (it's not painful or uncomfortable). On the other side I cannot. When I look at my face, I can notice that it doesn't look completely symmestrical; but my friends say they can't. Should I be concerned and try to fix it - or is it normal for it to be slightly off? Thank you.
