How long does it take to repair the prosthetic chin?
In general, it takes about 5-7 days for the prosthesis to recover after augmentation, and the swelling begins to decrease the next day, but the fixing belt should be worn for three days to reduce the swelling and discomfort of the wound. About ten days after operation, the suture in the mouth will be removed, and some of them will fall off on their own. The incision under the chin can be removed in about 5 days.

Proper postoperative care can effectively help us accelerate our recovery. After operation, we should pay attention to oral hygiene, try to have a liquid diet and make a gradual transition to prevent the prosthesis from moving due to excessive chin activity. In addition, don't take part in some sports that will shake or hit your face for a few weeks after operation to prevent the prosthesis from shifting due to accidental collision.

Everyone's physique is different, and the recovery time is different. Don't be too eager to recover. Good postoperative care can make recovery faster. An obvious postoperative condition after chin augmentation surgery is local swelling, which generally disappears completely 2 months after chin augmentation surgery. If chin augmentation surgery and other facial plastic surgery are performed at the same time, facial swelling may last for 4 months.
