I have been to 3 different Dr's for consultations and opinions and estimates. I really liked two of the Dr's but have chosen Dr A because he only does faces so he should be really well practiced and good at this. I have watched several lip and tear trough surgeries on youtube to be informed on what I am choosing to do.

Getting nervous. Been eating pinapple and got 3 diff neck pillows and a humidifer. My face will be super jacked up for a week. Then bruised and still swollen for another week. Hopefully not to bad after that. Going to try to add close up photos but doesn't look easy on here.

Get qtips to clean your nose, chapstick and I hope you have a u shaped pillow. These three things were so helpful during my recovery. Best of luck...oh yeah get lots of rest:)

Thank you. I got aquifer for lips, chapstick and vaseline.
The 3 different neck pillows are the U shaped. Each are a little different shape or firmness so when one starts bugging me I can switch. I have also planned what to eat (drink really) for the first couple days. I have tried to be over prepared.

Pre Op Goodie bag
Forgot to mention when I went to my pre-op Dr Apostolakis gave me a whole goodie bag and 3 prescriptions. I bring it with me to surgery and they went over everything in it then and will go over one more time surgery day. I will post again when I am home so I can tell you what all is in it. Very nice not to have to run to the drug store with a list of stuff to purchase and wonder if I am getting the correct thing. There are two meds already in bag one is the antibiotic and I think one to help sleep and relax. Supposed to take that one night before surgery. Like I said I will post later with contents. I thought this was a nice touch.
Thank you so much for starting your story on RealSelf! It sounds like this could be an exciting and dramatic transformation. We'd love to see your photos. :)
