Doing fine but am going back for injection (fat) into my cheeks....still looking hollow. Hope all of you are well.

2 months and 25 days.

Doing fairly well. I am still a little numb in the cheek area as well as my neck. I'm told to give it time. My hair has gotten very thin and breaks off when I brush it.
Lately, Pain above ear where stitches and sutures were ( and are since I'm told they haven't dissolved yet).
When I open my mouth to chew or move my jaw I get a pain. I am sure it is related to the facelift, maybe an infection. There's a little bump above my ear that hurts when I touch it, it's tender. What can it be????
I called my Doc today and he feels it IS the suture that hasn't yet dissolved. "Sometimes takes 6 months". He did suggest I come to see him and he'd remove the suture. Does anyone have this problem? Any comments, ideas or suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

Surgery was Feb 9......

Ive been doing ok but still have numbness on both cheeks and right ear. Places on my head near my hairline are sore also. I wonder if this is normal.
sorry for not getting on RealSelf earlier; ive been ill with Bronchitis and STILL cant get rid of it, its lingering. anyone have a cure? Ive been on the Z Pac but I guess it didnt help much!!! still feeling blah!
