Can I return to work within two days after having a chin implant?

Asked By:dominic12345 in Boston, MA

I intend to return to work within two days of having my chin implant surgery. I understand that the swelling will not subside until around a week. However, is there anything physically stopping me from returning to work? Also, is erosion a theoretical risk with a chin implant or a real concern? My surgeon is not going to use screws to put the chin implant in place. However, he is a highly experienced doctor. He also intends for me to use a head bandage. Will the headband dislodge the implant?
