The recovery time after chin implant surgery varies depending on the technique used for the surgery. Patients typically stay in the hospital for one day after chin implant surgery. If another combined operation is performed along with the chin surgery, this time frame can be extended depending on the patient's general condition. Numbness around the lower lip and chin will gradually disappear.

Self-absorbable stitches in the mouth will dissolve within 7-10 days. Mild swelling and bruising may occur in the chin area, but these effects will gradually disappear. To reduce the risk of infection after implant surgery, antibiotic and painkiller treatment will begin. After the surgery, it is recommended for the patient to avoid heavy movements, smoking, and alcohol consumption.

In chin implant surgery, the incision is made on the inside of the mouth, so there is no visible scar on the outside. In patients with a condition that prevents the incision from being made inside the mouth, the incision is made externally or under the chin. This incision can leave a barely noticeable scar that is not easily seen from the front.

Patients who agree to have chin implant surgery are advised to quit smoking at least three weeks before the procedure, as it increases the risk of postoperative infection and slows down the healing process. If any regularly used medications are present, it is essential to inform the specialist before intervention.
