Hi! I am 4.5 dos post neck and low face cosmetic surgery.My surgeon who says he is "certain of 100% recovery", but can't say when.My upper right lip pulls upward and over and wrinkles strongly and my lower left lip pulls downward. I cant use a straw, I drool when I drink from a glass, I have swelling still( thats normal probably) my speech is impaired,I have difficulty chewing correctly.Do I have cause for concern? If I wait too long before any treatment, can I have more damage? Thank you.
