It has been 11 months since my mommy makeover and lipo on my neck, This year has been crazy!! First lets start with my neck! I have had a large hard piece of skin to deal with! I had one revision in October with NO effect! This has been the hardest to deal with because it's always so noticeable. Dr. Fee decided to do a lower facelift, he said he would also remove that old scar. I can't wait to have this completed. My stomach incision was not even and looked "pulled up" right between my pubis bone, My breast implants are silicone under the muscle and when I layer down they would flop to the sides and I had no cleavage. My left breast also ached all the time.
So this is what was done on Friday 6/27. I had a mini face lift. of the lower face and neck. I still have bandages, today they come off and I will take pictures!. My ears are really sore, I didn't realize the sutures come right up in front of them.
My left breast is still sore and doesn't look as nice as my right, I hope they look better soon. I still don't have that deep cleavage I wanted.
Last but not least is my abdomen. I had what I can only describe as a sad face. If I wore bikini underwear the scar would above it, right in the center of my stomach. I also have quire a bit of fat on my abdomen the he lipo'ed. I hope he lipoed enough, I know it won't be seen until swelling goes down!!

I sure hope the swelling goes down! Yikes. I'm not new to this so I remember you have some, but I also had seromas and hematoma last time and I know those issues delay healing. I'm wearing the jaw bra and compression as ordered.

Hi Jo. Ouch! Your chin looks so sore. Wait until the swelling goes down ( tummy tuck too) You are going to look fantastic!! Sending healing hugs to you.

Hi Jo, it's a bit of a hurdle to trust your dr again isn't it. I am two weeks post revision face/necklift. Unable to see results yet because of swelling and bruising. You have had so much more revised than I but I think it's easier the second time. We are mentally prepared for what is to come, been there, felt that lol. Will be interesting to see if we are both happy with our outcomes. Rest n heal :)

Nasty bruise on neck, be sure to take off your face bra a few times per day to let blood circulate. I think boobs look good, it's early days yet :)

Thanks, I am taking it off, even though he didn't suggest it!! Last time I got a huge hematoma and that started the lump that wouldn't go away!!

Looks like some improvement even since yesterday...let us know how it went at the Dr!!

Thanks for all the kind comments! The doctors appointment went well yesterday! I got some of my stitches out (the ones in front of my ears), and I am feeling better! He still wants me to wear the jaw bra and binder most of the time. I can take it off for small periods! I feel like things are moving in the right direction! Fingers crossed, I go back Tuesday~

Try to stay positive JoShults, I know some days that is easier said then done but it is really important to keep your spirits up & share your concerns with your DR as soon as possible so he can alleviate your concerns. Early days yet k
