I’ve been back to PS twice for steroid shots under my chin because he said it might be some scar tissue. Last shot was 6 weeks ago. Shouldn’t he know what is causing this and not be guessing? I feel like I look deformed. Is there a way to fix it? I’ve seen tons of pics of people getting this procedure done and they are completely smooth under their chin just a few weeks after surgery. I’m really getting concerned.
