No major trauma during surgery - I know this because of how well my healing process went. Healing went almost perfectly fine until gauze started to fall out about 5 days post/op which was quite painful and annoying, but I had minimal bruising and no puffiness or swelling due to surgery. Bruising went away within 10 days post/op.

Congrats. I hope it's just the swelling that makes it look not straight.

I think all of the swelling has gone down by now... my procedure was back in January :-/ but I'm still mostly happy with the overall look!

Thanks for sharing on RealSelf! Were there any supplies that really helped you as you were recovering?

definitely drinking straws, lots of water and disposable plastic cups, foods/snacks that you can "suck" on because you really won't be able to comfortably eat while you have the packing in. Extra gauze will help, and medical tape!! If I think of anything else I'll let you know!
