Wanting This Forever!!! - Fleming Island, FL

I've always been self-conscious of my weak chin and unbalanced profile. I've hidden behind my hair for years, and micromanage every photo opportunity so that I'm always smiling (makes my chin appear bigger)
My younger sister took the plunge two years ago and got hers done and I was so impressed by how good she looked that I decided it was my turn now.
I'm having a silastic implant put in through an external incision. I'm very confident in the surgeon I've chosen, as he's very smart and comes highly reviewed by anyone who's heard of him. He instantly put me at ease and made me feel confident in his skills.
As the days draw nearer I get more excited and imagine the results and how relieved I will feel to finally be "normal."
Like with any self-perceived flaw, I have just fixated on my lack of a chin obsessively. I stare at other people's faces and wish that I could be so lucky as to have a balanced, aesthetically pleasing look. I grimace at bad photos of myself and feel awful to the point of just wanting to crawl under my covers and sulk. It goes without saying that this surgery is going to do major work for my self-confidence.
I've been hesitant to put my photos on here, just because I hate showing off my face like this, but here goes! I'm happy to answer any questions if I can :)

The surgery went very well and the staff were all very nice. The nurse even used a skin numbing spray before starting an IV so I didn't feel the needle. They hooked me up with good anti nausea mess so when I woke up I felt totally fine. I'm not sitting on the couch eating toast, about to watch Netflix, so I'd say, everything is great!
Pain is about a 4. Feels like I got punched in the face, but the most annoying part, so far, is not being able to open my mouth very wide, which makes eating a bit of a task. Other than that I'm doing well.
My Dr. was very nice and pleasant when he came to see me just before I went under and I can already tell that I'm going to like the results.
Now the only issue I'm dealing with is this stupid Hurricane coming. It's going to push back my post op from tomorrow to Monday most likely. That's when the bandage comes off, so I'm a bit bummed about having to hold off on the big reveal.
I'll update more later on ????

I was up and moving about all day yesterday. The pain is being managed very well with the medication my Dr prescribed. I slept pretty well also. Kept myself elevated with two pillows and didn't wake up in pain or anything. The hurricane alert came through on my phone which did wake me up, and I was unable to go back to sleep, but this is when I normally get up for work anyways, so not a big deal.
I did end up taking two pills instead of one, this morning, just because it was pretty tender and sore. Overall, though in doing very well.
I'm sad that I won't be able to have my bandage removed today, but maybe it will offer some extra support for a few days. Gotta think positive ????
I'm really pleased with how little I'm swelling. No chipmunk face for me!
