I had a silicone chin implant inserted under my chin on March 5th. I started having twitching on my lower left side of my chin a day ago. It twitches every couple of seconds and it’s also visible from the outside. It’s constant and driving me crazy. Prior to all of this I had a pretty smooth recovery.
