I do not have any range of motion in my upper lip. I am unable to laugh or smile. I look completely distorted. My stitches have not dissolved at 8 days post op and I can feel tissue under my upper lip coming between the stitches. I have a family event in 8 days and need to be picture ready. I feel as though I am healing disfigured.
