I am American and had liposuction on my double chin 5 days ago. My bulge under my chin still looks the same if not slightly worse. I had been mugged about 5 years ago and my jaw broken, but I dont think the scar tissue, would have affected my double chin as the tissue never felt strange before and I have had it for years. Is it possible that the swelling will still go way down? I've been on a million blogs and my doctor is on holiday till the 17th. Every where I read seems to say "After 2 weeks" most of the swelling is gone. True? THANK YOU!
I am 6 days post chin/jaw lipo and I see no difference. Actually it maybe even looks a little worse. Based on my pictures, do you think this is just swelling? At a minimum, I'm wanting that little triangle of fat behind where my chin starts to curve down into my neck to disappear. I'm worried because it's been almost a week and I still see no difference.
I had chin lipo 8 days ago and its hard to see any progress because I still have the hard lumps under my chin as well as swollen lymph nodes that are painful to the touch. Is this normal? I asked my doctor during my follow up and at first he seemed alarmed then he said I was okay. Im both confused and concerned.
I am 6 days post chin lipo, I got it last Fri and the after photo was taken the next Wed night. I have been wearing the compression band 24/7, there is some bruising and some tenderness still under my chin, but otherwise no hardness or discomfort. They said they took 100ml out after all was complete. I am concerned/bummed that there is no difference yet, as most of my Dr.'s examples had great differences at their 1 week post-op appointment- even the ones that didn't require a lot of fat removal.
I really truly hope you can help I have laser liposuction done Friday its been 5 days now and he said he took out 30 cc I feel like I need more taking out Im not feeling swelled at all I just feel and look the same I believe I need to be seen by someone else I definitely still have my double chin had chin and neck done please tell me this is looking different he want me to wear my wrap for 3 days then 3 weeks at night I feel like I need to wear longer
Hello, I had Vaser Lipo under my chin, upper neck, and jawline this week. I am 5 days post. The day after at my follow up appointment everything looked perfect. I was warned that I would temporarily lose my results to swelling. I understand this but I am concerned about a roll/limo that has developed under my chin. Does it look like it is just from swelling? Im worried its loose skin or fat left behind. Thank you.
7 days ago I had UAL under the chin, General anesthesia. I have jaw pain along mandible, unable to open my mouth fully (like a big yawn), some numbness on my tongue (hard to spit), chin and lower lip. Unable to depress my bottom lip to smile - problem is bilateral. My surgeon says she never had this happen and that her colleague surgeon says its neuropraxia and should resolve (colleague didnt see me). Should I meet with an ENT as my next step? Super worried its permanent...please help.
I had chin/neck tumescent liposuction 5 days ago and since the operation I have had a crooked smile. I'm aware that the marginal mandibular nerve has been damaged and am now extremely worried that my smile is permanently damaged. I attach a photo from day 1, and today (day 5). I think there is some slight improvement in that you can see more teeth in today's photo? Do you think my smile will return, and how long do you think it will take judging on the movement so far? Thank you
1 week ago I had chin lipo. Right after taking off the bandage(day 3) I thought the results were very good. But a week later I feel the results have gotten worse. Is this because of the swelling? Will my final results in 6 months look more like the results I saw only a few days after the lipo, instead of what I'm seeing today? I'm a bit red, but I don't seem too swollen. And today I found two white bumps. I've been using my compression garment since day 3, 24/7. Please tell me its just a pimple?
I had chin lipo/lift one week ago. I am worried as I feel it looks worse than before! It looks saggy and bigger but Im hoping this is still due to swelling. I was told I didnt need to wear a compression bandage at all...has that ruined it?! Im scared its worse! Will it get better?!
