Asked By:IndyBrittany

3 weeks ago, I had liposuction of the jawline and chin and he even went in and pulled some fat out that was below the muscle in my lower chin/upper neck area. My lower lip isn’t the same, when I smile it’s uneven and when I laugh or talk it looks funny. I’ve now create a habit of putting my hand over my mouth when I talk.. I talked to my dr and he said he will look at it at my next post opp appointment. My question is, is this or can it be permanent? It is caused by swelling?? Help!
