Can't smile after chin implant- is this permanent? (Photo)

November 8, 2015
Asked By:m0kat in Boston, MA

I am really scared that my smile is ruined. I already hated my smile before, but now it is even worse. I got rhinoplasty and a chin implant on the 5th, so it has only been 3 days but my face looks so fat and so long and the face shape is messed up and I can't physically smile no matter how much I try. Is this normal? Will I eventually be able to smile? Thank you
