Dtodd218, I'll be the first to comment. Your doc will probably tell you to judge based on your pre-op photo which shows you got significant reduction in volume (over half?). He might also tell you he can reduce it some more after 6 mos. to a year (the appropriate amount of time) but would you want the same doc, considering the post-op infection and pain??? By the way, results immediately post surgery, especially primary procedures, always appear unrealistically tight (and what we'd love to hang onto forever if we could) but fact is it ends up relaxing; evenstill, you still you end up with improvement from where you started. A "revision" could give you more reduction but if I were you I'd consult with other neck surgeons before choosing. The "sagging" is probably close to "baseline" now and doubt it'll keep sagging so don't worry too much, however do seek out at least one or two other consults for revision before deciding. Hope this helps and good luck!

Glad you are healed. You look great!! Would you please share the name of the surgeon, so that others can avoid him? Thanks!

Thank you for sharing. I am 36 and have not found too many people my age yet that have gotten this done. Most people are usually a little older. Glad to see you got some nice results. I love the new angle you got from surgery. Congrats.

Well I'm a little concerned about my neck. I'm still swollen under chin where it still looks like a double chin. When the swelling subsides will it look better? I'm on yet another prescription for now swollen lymph nodes this is script number 4 in 5 weeks ugh !!!!
If anyone had long swelling and it went down and looks better let me know plz. I'm pretty discouraged that I'll still have double chin. :(

Feeling better. Abscess subsiding and swelling going down a bit. Still no feeling in right ear or neck but making progress. Ps said to start massaging the swelling to help it go down.

It's almost 6 weeks for me. My ears are just coming back & still numb on cheekbones but I had a FL, too.

I feel left ear but not right. My cheeks are numb also. Starting to itch but numb so I'm guessing maybe nerves are coming back together or something

Yes, itching is good! I think using my Clarasonic helps wake up my face.

You look amazing. The three photos of you side by side really illustrate the great result you already have. You seriously look like a different person... Younger and like you lost a lot of weight. Really nice. I hope you feel great. I have the double chin too so thanks for posting your journey -it's really helpful. Good luck. You look gorgeous.
