Healing Nicely

I feel like the healing process does take a while on this one. Its almost been 3 months and the hair is growing back and the scar is almost invisible on the left side.
My forehead is still tight and on the left side I can feel the deep tissue suture or something, but the Dr. Toby said that was fine. Im very happy with my new forhead, cant wait to use my eyebrows again, considering I showed a lot of expressions with them.
If youre considering this surgery, remind yourself it does take a while. You will end up hating it at one point, but its worth it.

hello did you end up going ahead with your chin surgery? Was it a reduction and how did you go with it? Also i like your widow's peak, it looks great that you have kept it. I was thinking of doing the exact same thing. May I ask was yours a coronal incision, does it go all the way across the top of your head ear to ear? Also please can you post a before picture from the side if you have one? I have had a consult with Dr Mayer, Im a female and I want the same procedure (except the hairline lowering). You look great. Keep the pics coming :))

I got a chin implant, it's actually still swollen and I've been worried about it. I think once the swelling goes down it will work out. This was not very invasive, looks like he went from the top of my hair line to where a receding hairline takes place. I will look for old photos. :)

The forehead I should've been born with!
SSAnonFebruary 13, 2016
The type of surgery I got is hard to explain to people, so... I didn't. I told no one about this procedure, not even my boyfriend who nursed me back to health.
How'd I manage to do that? Well... I just didn't tell him. I was able to hide it with beanies and headbands pretty well and no one else has noticed, except for me. It's a BIG change with certain lighting!
My forehead is now smooth and very feminine. When there was swelling, it did look like I had botox done and yellowish bruising? around my eyes and temples. My nerves all seem to be healing well, the top of my head by the incision is numb, but the rest is still normal. I'm 1 month post op and my forehead is still tight, I cant show much emotion with my eyebrows at this stage... it's taking some time.
I do not wash my hair daily, but what I didn't realize is how much dandruff flakes you accumulate! It's not pretty, but it's there.
I use some Neosporin around the incision and I try to massaging lightly.
I still feel pressure by where the staples were set and hair (looks like a receding hairline)- that is not numb. I'm not worried about the hair loss right now, it's minimal.
Another thing I noticed was my forehead getting oily fast. It must be from the stretching, but I had no breakouts. I have no more tzone! It's the best... especially in photos.
I'm VERY happy with this procedure, but I'm ready for it to heal.
I can't wait to finally pull my hair back and feel confident. It's been 10years since I wore anything other than a side part... can't wait to change that!

Wow I can relate, I have a very masculine nose. Congrats on a new beginning.

My forehead protrudes more around right above the orbital area, eyebrows, I swear I feel like a caveman sometimes! Makes my deep set eyes seem even more so. LOL I am a woman too. I think this Dr. is the right guy for the job! Are you very happy now with results?
