Chin enhancement surgery can help provide a balanced look to the face. Prior to undergoing an aesthetic surgery procedure, it’s important to understand what your recovery process will look like. At SY Aesthetic, our care team will be with you every step of the way as we work to create the look that you want. Here, we’ll explore what you can expect during the recovery process after chin enhancement surgery.
Swelling and Discomfort
It’s normal to experience some swelling and discomfort after your chin enhancement surgery. Your surgeon may recommend that you use ice packs to help manage your swelling, as well as keep your head elevated. Your surgeon may also prescribe pain medications or recommend over-the-counter medications to help manage your pain during the recovery process. Some pain is normal, but it’s important to reach out to your care provider in the event that your pain becomes unmanageable.
Diet and Nutrition
The area around your mouth will continue to heal for a few days after your surgery, and it’s important to carefully follow your post-operative instructions for diet and nutrition. Your surgeon may recommend following a soft food or liquid-only diet in the days after your surgery.
Avoid Certain Activities
You may need to stay away from strenuous physical activity, such as heavy lifting or running, during the healing process. You also may need to limit facial expressions as you heal so that you do not pull on your incision or impede healing.
