My lip feels restricted after chin implant. Any suggestions? (photo)

ges319
I had a chin implant(mouth incision)/neck lipo five weeks ago. Numbness is almost gone, except on the right side of my lip, and directly under it. My concern is that my bottom lip comes very high now. I really want my smile back, or I am taking this thing out. It feels like when I push my tongue around the inside of my lower lip that there is a slope where in the middle there is less space for my tongue. How can I fix this and is it normal?
