8 Weeks Post Rhinoplasty, Upper & Lower Bleph, Lower Face and necklift

Normally I wouldn't put hideous photos of myself in public but this is more like a science experiment. LOL!

I stopped in to see Dr. DeJoseph today. He is so awesome and hilarious! I had to miss my follow-up appointment last week when I wasn't feeling well - nothing surgery related, just tired. I was a little bit worried that one one of my incisions - on scalp from face lift - might be infected. He said everything normal. Just irritation where the hair is growing through it. He looked at all the other parts and said everything healing really well. What I was really wanting to know was how much swelling he thought was still in nose, eyes, neck. Luckily he said swelling still in nose from tip up to between my eyes. I'm glad because I was hoping there would be less nose in my future. He had a new fellow (as in specialty medical training) working with him and it was hilarious listening to Dr. DJ describing what he had done to my nose - and face. It sounded like he was talking about how to de-fat and slice corned beef. I didn't mind it at all. Better out than in! Also glad to hear how he had really pulled in tip cartilage and fastened it down tight! I'll just keep thinking shrinking nose thoughts.

Slowly losing swelling in nose. It's hard to tell what is swelling and what is final result in the bridge. Tip is definitely swollen. Hopefully nostrils are still swollen.
