I had a recent chin implant replacement in feb & it ended up falling down below the jawline on the left side, the doctor did a revision 5 weeks later & I'm having even more issues. numbness & limited movement of lower lip on left side but then, another issue popped up which appears to be a bulging muscle on the other (right) side. It's sticking out when I smile, causing me to look even MORE distorted I am attaching a picture of the muscle which is also now accompanied with a large dimple.
