I had facial laser and lipo surgery performed 4 days ago. The only actual lipo used was my double chin. The surgeon used laser on my jaw line to give me a more contoured face. When I press on the swollen jaw areas, I hear a disgusting squishing/slurping noise. Is this normal?
What is the correct pressure to apply when wearing the chin strap post chin, neck liposuction? I am on day 4 post neck, chin lipo and buccal fat removal. The surgeon told me the correct pressure is imperative, but I am unable to gauge what that might be. What is too tight? What is too loose? Am I actually wearing this thing to create the contour of the result? In that case it will be very important to position the straps a specific way. Thanks in advance for your feedback!
It has been 4 days since I had my chin lipo and I so desperately want to wash my hair. I don't see my dr until day 6 but I am afraid I won't be able to wait till then especially since the wrap seems so tight I have a headache 24/7. Can I take it off to shower? Also I am seeing a lot of post op patients have chin wraps instead. Should I have one also?
I had chin lipo four days ago. I was told to wear the cg 23 hours a day, taking off to bath, which is what I've been doing, plus loosening it to eat. I know its important to the healing process, that's why im wondering if it wuld be a big deal to take off for a couple hours tomorrow to get out of the house and go to a movie, as long as I put it righht back on when I get home? Or will that effect my healing? Im young with good elastic skin as well.
