The post-surgical effects can stay put for 3-4 weeks. Patients are advised to gently press cold compressors against the puffiness, and sustain adequate hydration.<\/b><\/p>\n
Bruising Or Scarring:<\/b><\/p>\n
Although the scars aren\u2019t deeply rooted, however, they cannot be camouflaged either – it takes 7-14 days for inevitable bruises to calm down and gradually fade away.<\/p>\n
Numbness:<\/b><\/p>\n
Due to anesthesia, the sensation of the skin is lost for a few days. This means you cannot feel movement around the upper\/ lower chin with discomfort and soreness.<\/b><\/p>\n
Influence of Medication: <\/b><\/p>\n
With pre-drug dosage and prescribed antibiotics, patients often feel nauseous with uncomforting muscle and throat soreness.<\/b><\/p>\n
Skin Laxity & Asymmetrical issues:<\/b><\/p>\n
Oftentimes, due to poor healing, the skin loses elasticity and symmetrical alignment as it recovers and settles down to its new location; causing evenness on the chin.<\/b><\/p>\n

Poor healing or lack of aftercare can lead to damaged skin barriers which can develop infection, pus, blood clotting or even bleeding. <\/b><\/p>\n
Thrombosis or Embolism:<\/b><\/p>\n
