This is not a common presentation after liposuction of the chin and should be managed closely as it may be a lymph node or hematoma. Raffy Karamanoukian Los Angeles
Thank you for posting a picture. SubmentalSmartlipo will take a few weeks to fully heal, you will have minimal bruisingand swelling through the process. The numb feeling will eventually subside,this is completely normal. Follow up with your surgeon during your healingprocess.
Likely it is a lymph node that responded(swelled) to the "trauma" of the procedure, however, it can sometimes represent a fluid collection--which can be treated. Have your surgeon evaluate it. The numbness and firmness in the liposuctioned area is expected. Give it time, it will improve.
