Not really. I think I have a high threshold for pain though. I mean when I first woke up, I felt pain but I asked my surgeon "Did you use a screw to keep the implant in place" He said Wow, you're good! How can you tell? I just felt this dull throbbing pain. I just took ibruprophen or something for that. I love my implant. He showed me all the sizes of implants and no way would I have wanted anything larger than the small. He agreed. I would not even know I have a chin implant. I mean it helps my appearance, but to feel it, I don't even notice it. Lipo is great. I can't believe the difference. I look at women now and seems most women have that huge neck and double chin thing going and I'm so glad I don't anymore. there is a HUGE difference in how I looked before and after.

One of my jobs I am constantly busy and running all over the place, but dang, I still feel all the weirdness. I run every day too and even then I feel it. I can feel fine, but when the muscle constricting starts, I can't help but notice it because it's so 'in my face' lol!

I think that's normal. My left side of the face looked awful with a huge lump sticking out like a bolt. Under my chin looked like someone flattened it with an iron lol. My chin implant incision was way up on the front of my face due to the swelling. Thinking back on it now oh my! I'm going on 5 months now I think (I lose track now) It took a long time for me to see good results with my eyes to be honest and even now, I think it could look a lot better than it does, but I understand he wouldn't want to have taken too much skin off as that would be bad, so I can have revisions, but sigh...after all this time the thought of revisions is exhausting, but I probably will because under my jaw on either side of my chin and lipo incision, it just looks weird. Like two ropes ...I can't really describe it, but I don't like it. Some refer to them as 'pouches' and a trench, but that doesn't seem accurate either. I lost ten more pounds in the last couple weeks, and I have to say it has made me look even more younger and that's a big woohoo for me! I'm 55 and a coworker came up to me yesterday and said "what's going on with you, my gosh, I had to do a double take, you looked about 30..." I just said Thank you!! She's 5 years younger than me too. Anyway, today I don't think I look as good as yesterday, but wow, made my day.

That's amazing! My surgery took 8 hours!!

You'll look fantastic. Sounds like you had much the same procedures as I did. How long did your surgery last? My PS had my incisions go around my ears but when it came down the front of the ear, he went inside my ear, over the tragus. You can't see or feel any incision, that part inside the ear, healed perfectly. I'm glad he did it that way. Did you have any lipo with your neck and chin? I was fortunate, I didn't bruise that badly really, I had some on the sides and the back of my neck, but it left quickly. Good luck!
