Dr. Givens’ meticulous technique is designed to keep your implant in position. While it is possible for a chin implant can move within the first few weeks after surgery, it is uncommon. During recovery, your chin and jawline may appear swollen and lumpy with variable amounts of bruising, discoloration, and asymmetry. While this is temporary and will subside to a large extent within two weeks, it will require a minimum of two months for ALL swelling and bruising to resolve and a full year for the chin and jawline to reach their final contour.
