What are the risks associated with Chin Reduction Surgery?
Like all surgical procedures, with chin reduction surgery there is always a possibility of complications. Although these complications are extremely rare, they can include:
- Infection.
- Adverse reaction to anaesthesia.
- Unsatisfactory results.
- The need for a second or third procedure.
What other complications are there?
Bruising and swelling of the jaw, neck and lower cheeks is to be expected following surgery.
What about chewing and swallowing?
Chewing and maybe swallowing will be difficult in the first few days following surgery, so a light diet with plenty of liquid should be consumed during this period.
What about things like talking and yawning?
Talking and yawning could also be problematic at first.
