What Causes Numbness In The Chin?

Hi,I had chin reduction 10 days ago. My chin feels really tight and feels numb. I m worried about the way it has changed my mouth when I talk. My lips are not numb at all, but when I talk, the middle of my lower lip pulls upward and the corners are down. I m worried about it.

Hi,

It's normal to experience tightness and numbness on your chin and changes in your mouth when you talk after chin reduction procedure. You'll get accustomed by time. These are the very first days only.

So, do not worry. Just follow your doctor's advice.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
