It's been 6 months..

I wish I never spent the money. It looks like it used to. I haven't gained any weight at all! I'm so disappointed :(

I wish there was something I can do but I'm just at a loss. The only thing my surgeon said I can do is a $18k surgery to adjust my jaw, but I can't trust his word. He said the Lipo would make my double chin go away. Sigh.

A bit depressed

Honestly this whole thing is really making me depressed right now. I went in for the 2 week review and showed them that it was regressing from the immediate after photo I had taken which was perfect and what I wanted. He said it's normal because the skin relaxes a little and that there's no more fat to suck out, that it's all muscle in there.. I was told I'd see an immediate difference but not that it would change for the worse, I thought the swelling would go down and it would be even better than the immediate results.
Also! He said he knew that it wouldn't be flat because he said he felt the muscle the first time he did the exam.. Which he never ever told me. I should have asked what was going to be the result.. But when the surgery is double chin lipo you expect the double chin to be gone completely also going by the before and after lipo pics on his website I don't think my expectations were too high at all. I just spent so much money and I just want to cry because I didn't get what I was told I would (no lore double chin). He said the only way to make it flat now is to spend over 11k getting a jaw surgery and jaw implants! I feel like a fool.
The chin itself does still hurt and feel funny, he said the appearance - might- get better, that it can take up to 4 months for the healing and all to be done. So I'll keep updating, but for now.. I just feel really sad.

13 days post op

Still waiting for the results to get better, we'll see. I'm going for my 2 week checkup on Monday, so I'll def bring up my concerns then. Does anyone know if it gets better with time? Also this post needs 200 characters and that is crazy crazy crazy crazy annoying
