After reading all the reviews where people only needed tylenol, I was a little suspicious. Let's remember this is a surgery. They cut your skin and when you wake up it feels like they cut you. I felt like I had been kicked in the head by a mule. My whole face throbbed. It seemed like for ever til my neice got my scripts filled.
Ice felt great. Ice, Ice, Ice. That is my best advice.
It is healing quickly but I am not sure if I can stand the itching stitches for 2 whole weeks.
Great review?

Thanks for sharing your story, KKH. I agree with you about the "tylenol only" crowd; maybe I'm a wimp, but getting cut up like that I expect a little pain. :)
Anyway, I'm glad to hear you're healing well so far. Please keep us updated on your progress!
