Glad to hear you like it! The swelling takes forever to go down. My surgeon gave me all kinds of excuses for the ear pain (that I bought, till I knew better) . It just never went away. Hopefully, yours does!
My teeth still feel funny. The tops are fine, it's the bottom. The feel stiff or something. That's just a side effect of the genioplasty. I think it's because the screws are right near the roots so it will never feel normal. Where did you have your's done? I had mine in FL.
I still h: I just saw my chin for the first time and it's still swollen. I think I like it but it's too early to say because of the swelling making it look like it's too big. I asked my PS about that ear pain and he said that it's from swelling. When your face swell so much , your ear canals swell also, sometimes to the point that they totally close what couses pain. I think that's right b/c my swelling went down a lot in a last 2 days and the ear pain is very little now. I don't have any pain from my chin ,only my teeth feel funny ,like the nerves are trying to wake up.
: Maybe you were so swollen that your ear canals where shut for a long time and it caused an actual ear infectin , and they tend to come back sometimes. I hope it will finally heal. Take care!!!

: Hello,
: : I had it done about 2 years ago and have since had an implant put in (looks more natural, but still have permenant nerve from the genioplasty).
: : It just looks strange, it kind of sticks out and looks stiff looking (like I'm talking through my teeth-it just doesn't move and I have noticed that in others with a genioplasty). I wanted the implant to begin with, because I thought the genioplasty was too risky and involved, but the doc talked me into it (it was alot more money!).
: : My ears still bother me, and I have to go to the Ear, Nose and Throat doc every year because of the pain. The surgeon must of hit a nerve or something. Sometimes, I can bearly hear (feels like swimmers ear). How does your chin look now? Hopefully, yours looks good and turns out!!
