Chin implant numbness and pain 1 year post op - is this normal?

Thank you ! for your question first of all I need more information and photos to assess the casa , For now, I recommend you go to your surgeon and check the counselor.
Thank you ! regards

Probably should get some imaging performed in order to be sure the implant is in the correct position. Numbness and or pain at one year is not typical. I would recommend a CT scan.

Hi there! At 1 year, the pain and neuropathy should've resolved. It's possible that the implant has moved or is impinging on the mental nerve. Imaging may provide some clues. If the location of the implant has changed, it will likely need to be redone. I would continue follow-up with your surgeon and hope this works out well for you.

There are two significant large nerves that exit the man the ball just above where chin implants should be placed.
Chin augmentation can put pressure against these nerves. Likewise it’s also possible that the nerves can be injured during the procedure.
Consider getting a second opinion from an oral surgeon or other board-certified plastic surgeon.
It might be useful to get an x-ray or a CT scan to confirm the position of the implant in relationship to the openings in the bone where the nerve exits.
