After your chin augmentation surgery in Rio de Janeiro, your chin will be protected with a dressing which is left in place until it is removed during a follow-up appointment. You can expect some minor discomfort, but will have prescription pain medication to keep you comfortable in the early stages of healing. You can resume your regular diet right after surgery. You can expect the area to feel tight for a few days, but this will quickly subside — generally within a week. You should avoid all vigorous physical activity during recovery, and you may return to your usual routine in about ten days to two weeks. Expect a few weeks of minor swelling before the full results of your enhanced facial structure is fully revealed, although your look will be much more balanced before that time.
