    Kaz give it a little more time. Bruising will go away eventually. Some people bruise differently than others. If you take aspirin daily you bruise even more than not. It does get better!

    Kaytee don't give up! Go back, a zillion times if you have to, to your doctor until you get it right. You put out to much money to not have it done correctly to your satisfaction. I am having an issue with my neck also. On one side there is to much loose skin that needs to be tightened. Also the fat transfer to my cheeks didn't take. So something will need to be done there. I am not asking to look like I am 30 again, but I am asking what needs to be corrected be taken care of. I've invested to much time and money to not be satisfied. So hang in there and don't give up. I'm not!

    The pain you are having on one side. Is it true pain constantly or is it occasionally discomfort? The reason I ask is I had it often but not constant feeling where I massaged it and it felt better. I did have what I call a "pouch" of loose skin under my chin more so on one side which I was not pleased with. That's when he tried to correct it by doing more surgery under the chin, which really didn't help so he did it again but under the earlobe where you can't see the incision. It looks much better. By all means don't do the followup procedures until your body has healed from the first one. I did not bruise much at all. Most of the bruising that occured was gone in about 10 days. For some reason your body must bruise easier. Do you take medicine daily like coumadin or any aspirin product? That could make your bruising take longer to heal. But I definitely would ask my doctor why I still have the pain and bruising 5 weeks out. Let me know what he says and good luck. Stay in touch.

    Yes that is good news. After all the 1000's you paid him, he should do all the followup procedures for free. Mine has! Be patient on when those procedures will be done. I had to wait 3 months because my doctor wanted more healing done so there would be less scaring for the followup procedures. Glad you are feeling great after all you have felt and been through.

    Trust me I have gone through the exact same feelings as you have. My orginal surgery took 6 hours with the eyes and face lift. I have had my ups and downs as you are experiencing now. You will have more to come. Just keep in mind how much better you look and "your mind" will let you feel better in time to come. Your body had a shoke to it when you had this surgery. It is not minor surgery, so it just takes time. Good luck and keep in touch by letting us know how you are doing!
