Hi all. I had all the above with some lipo done two days ago. I have NO bruising, just swelling. Loving the results already. Several tight spots, numb spots and sore spots but that's to be expected. Was able to shower the next day but opted to stay in bed, icing my face with frozen baby diapers and cold gauze pads on my eyes. I stayed overnight at the facility which I highly recommend. I can't imagine having to go home being "out of it". I have only had one Oxi for pain and have been primarily using Tylenol for pain and Gabapentin for the nerves. Will continue to post updates but am super pleased. My left side is more swollen since I had more done. Will continue to post pics...
Recommend chapstick and a Listerine breath strip post op LOL. Mouth is super dry after surgery and I was dying for some minty freshness.
PS recommend frozen baby diapers to wrap around your face. This was super clever and helped a lot. I got Target brand #2 baby diapers and wet about a dozen the night before surgery. They are waterproof and help to keep your face cool.
I also bought a wedge pillow and a travel neck pillow to keep my body elevated and comfy while I sleep. This worked out really well.
Lastly, kept a cup of ice water next to the bed so I can soak 4x4 gauze pads to put on my eyes. HEAVEN!!!

Still please with results. Some weird things going on with my nerves. Touch a spot on my neck and feel it on my ear. LOL. Definitely need to rest the eyes as they get tired.
I actually had the procedure on the 5th but I couldn’t change the date no matter or I tried.
Eye sutures removal in 2 days. Rest of stitches and samples out in 6 days.

Lovely result! Your before looks like my after. Like you, I was trying to reverse early aging changes, but my surgeon was too conservative and I did not get the result I had hoped for. I'm going to have to have mine redone. At very least, I'll need corrective work done on my very stretched out earlobes. A huge disappointment for me all the way around. I am thrilled to see that your results were so wonderful, and hope they remain so as you continue to heal. All the best of luck to you!

Thank you Doryblue92. I wasn't expecting such dramatic results but am VERY pleased. This can be a scary process...I mean, it is only our face, right! I can't imagine having to go through it again as I was very anxious, nervous, had mixed feelings and nightmares. Best of luck to you as well.

Looking like a beautiful result! Best wishes on your healing.

Looking forward to seeing your further results. You're looking great. How are you doing?

H there. Thank you! I'm doing well. Swelling has decreased a lot. I have an appt tomorrow for suture removal from my eyelids.

Your results look amazing !!! May I asked what was the total cost of your procedures?

I also had lipo of my flanks, inner thigh, upper thigh under the buttocks and abs. With that, I was able to save. Approx cost for the face/neck work was about $13k.

Suture removal

Super excited to have the tape and sutures removed from my eyes. That was a bit uncomfortable but considering what I just went through, a walk in the park! Still swollen around the eyes but am LOVING the results and the fact that I have absolutely NO bruising. Can’t wait for the swelling to be completely gone. Be sure to moisturize on the sutures for easier removal.

I was also able to return back to work today so less than a week down-time. Eyes are a little tired from the computer screen.

You look stunning! May I ask exactly what procedure was done for your lower eyelid area? Was it a blepharoplasty with the excision under the lash line? Was fat repositioned? Or, did you have fat added to your under eye area? Did you have any skin removed from your under eye area? Like a skin pinch? Why did you have to have tape under your eyes for a week? Sorry for all the questions, but my eyes look a lot like your before pics and I absolutely love how you have such a smooth lower eyelid area without the wrinkles and crinkles when smiling. You also don’t seem to have the hollows any longer either which is why I was wondering if it was fat transfer or because of the mid face lift? Thank you so much in advance for your time! I greatly appreciate it! I have consultations coming up. Best wishes to you!
