Recovering from Cheek & Chin Implants Connecticuts

Recovery

Upon awakening from the anesthesia used in Cheek & Chin Augmentation, you may experience some pain that will be relieved with medication. If you experience continued discomfort, you will be given additional pain medication. During the healing process, particularly during the first three to seven days, your activities and diet will be restricted. It is normal to experience some discomfort and swelling in the affected area for several days. You will probably find it difficult to smile and talk much within the first few days.

Black and blue marks may be visible around your chin and neck so plan your clothing choices with that in mind. Your surgeon will give you very specific instructions regarding dental/oral hygiene, eating a soft food diet, sleeping positions and activity restrictions.

Give your face an opportunity to heal and you will be rewarded in time. You may not be able to accurately evaluate your newly shaped cheeks and chin for several weeks or months. Give yourself the opportunity to get used to your new look. Surprisingly, others may not even recognize that you have had a procedure, they just think you look better, more refreshed-and no doubt you will feel that way, too. Be sure to address any questions or concerns about this procedure to your surgeon immediately. Your health and happiness are the most important considerations at any time.
