Thought I'd post an update. Still happy with the appearance, still feels foreign and I have reduced sensation in my chin. Overall feel it's worth it.

So it's been about 10 months following my chin implant surgery. Everything is normal, just as before regarding speech, movement, expressions. It still feels foreign to the touch and I have a tiny area of reduced sensation on the tip of my chin but it's no big deal. I'm really happy I did it, no regrets.

Tip: Be Patient

Just wanted to make a side note. I'm about 2.5 months post and any weird lumps/bumps have finally disappeared. The hardness under my chin is gone from the lipo. I also had a small bump on the left side of my chin that was there for two months. It's finally gone, so I'm sure it just takes time for all the fluid/swelling to dissipate. Even up until about a week ago, I still had days where the muscles felt strange over the implant, but now I feel 100% normal. Patience is a virtue!

Thank you, this is very helpful, and I really hope that reading all these stories will help me to not freak out if there is something weird at the beginning. Everybody emphasizes how important it is to just give it time. p.s. So would you say that you are not aware of the implant anymore, i.e. does it feel like it's just a part of you? And funny - I often push my lower jaw forward because I know it gives me a lot more definition hahaha. THanks!

I am aware of the implant, it still feels "foreign", sort of hard and solid. It seems it takes awhile for your body to get used to it being there. Hopefully in a couple of months that feeling will be gone.

Hey lovely! You look great! How are you liking your chin implant? I also have a chin implant (over a year post op) and I've noticed that I can definitely feel the thing in there. I have tightening on the sides of my jaw (where the wings are), and it seems difficult for me to annunciate. Do you also have this problem? I'm trying to decide if that is the nature of having a chin implant, or if mine is just too large. Thanks for the help and I hope you are pleased with your results!

It definitely still feels weird and foreign, like it's not my own. But I have no restrictions with speech, that only lasted the first three weeks. I'm still very happy with it!
