Explanation for massaging Chin Implants?

ChinBurger
I'm probably the last person who could call himself an expert on Chin implants. But it just seems like a terrible idea to me, this recommendation I keep hearing to "massage your implant" after surgery. Isn't implant displacement a huge possible problem? Wouldn't massaging it be the very last thing you want to do? What's the thinking behind this recommendation, and how much risk does it introduce in reality?
