31 Yr Old Male, Chin Implant, Jaw Angle Implants, Submental Lipectomy with Dr. Yaremchuk

I think almost all of the swelling as gone away, and I like the new jawline. Nothing feels weird when I smile or chew anymore. There are a few small items which haven't fully recovered, which I'll list below so potential patients can make an informed decision. I don't know if these issues are permanent or if they will slowly heal. I will see Dr. Y on Friday and get a prognosis. Only issue #4 is an immediate concern to me. Assuming these issues eventually heal, have these procedures been worth it? I'd say the chin implant and submental lipectomy are definitely worth it. I'm less sure about the jaw angle implants--the increased definition in the jaw-neck transition is nice, but from the front view I might slightly prefer my original narrower jaw. This much just be irrational nostalgia, and it doesn't make financial sense for me to undergo revisional procedures, so I'll learn to like my new wider jaw.
Lingering issues:
(1) Some of the skin under my jaw is still numb. So care must be taken while shaving. (2) While my left cheek seems to have fully recovered, my right cheek still is a little swollen and hasn't regained full range of motion. The limited range of motion is only apparent when trying to hold a wide smile in a mirror. It's not so crooked that I would avoid smiling. (3) Incision scar is still healing, although minimally apparent from normal viewing angles. (4) I had a cut on my neck after surgery, which I was advised to cover with a bandaid while wearing the neck compression wrap during the first week of recovery. That cut still hasn't closed, which is why you see a bandaid on my neck. Perhaps the compression wrap injured the tissue in a way that it has been slow to heal. It has scabbed over, and the scab has naturally fallen off a couple times now.

Today my stitches were removed for my submental incision. The incision is healing nicely. Bruises which developed on the right side of my jaw have faded quite a bit. Swelling is way down, where the left side of my face feels mostly recovered and looks okay, but the right side is still a little puffy. The lower third of my face is slightly wider than the rest of my head right now, but Dr. Y says there's still a lot of swelling everywhere and that will go away by our follow-up, in two weeks. I hope he's right!

The swelling is unfortunately quite large and asymmetric. I do see an improvement in the transition between my chin and neck, but will have to be patient as the swelling subsides.
