Can I ride a roller coaster after 1 month post op chin implant?

dreams18Jul 7, 2015
The title pretty much says it all. I'm going to an amusement park in a couple days, and my chin seems to be pretty healed up and looking good and in place. Will riding a roller coaster jostle it out of place? I'm also going to a water park. Will being submerged in pool water cause any problems either? The incision also seems to be completely healed up. Thanks.
