How Can I Speed Up Healing to Creases & Lumps Left by Chin/neck Lipo? (photo)

February 19, 2012
Asked By:belleface2012 in Toronto, KS

I'm 33,female, & physically fit. I had a diet & exercise resistant double chin. 27 days ago I got a chin implant with chin and neck liposuction, direct fat excision from behind the platysma muscles & muscle suturing. No lipo was done to the jowls. My dr. is a board certified ENT & facial/neck plastic surgeon with a good rep. As per the pics, I have very visible lumps & creases (no creases prior). I wore the compression garment for 2 weeks straight. Will this resolve? What else can I do to help?
