Hello,

I'm 8 weeks post op (tomorrow) and my chin is still numb. I had

upper/lower and genio done. I have some sensation back, ie: when I

touch my chin I know I am touching it but it's somewhat like an altered

sensation. I can have food dripping out of my mouth onto my chin and I

won't know it.

I've been told it's normal, and everyone's nerves regenerate at their

own pace. I was also warned that 100% sensation may never come back,

but it's nothing to worry about as you get used to it (not what I

wanted to hear, but I've spoken to someone 2 years post op who doesn't

have full feeling back!)

Be patient, and time is the only healer unfortunately!

i'm just over 2 years post-op and still have some numbness in my chin

and lower lip. I've just got used to it and expect it wont come back.

I dont drip food or anything, its more just like its dulled....

Hope you get your feeling back soon!
