WORTH IT
I'm still happy! Just on a side note the price I listed was not accurate for new patients. Sorry for the confusion, but I am a frequent patient as I listed in my initial story and I chose this dr based on trust and location (20 miles from home). You can call his office for a consult and current price.
All movement has returned, no one ever asked me if I had surgery. Just the typical, did you cant your hair, lose weight, you look happy stuff! :)
A part of me wants to remove a little more skin, but I think we all look at pics and get lip envy! I'm going in for a year check up in a few weeks, so I will update you! Thanks for reading!

Still healing! But happy so far!!
I'm 11 days post op! I've attached a pic with makeup and lipstick. Obviously I'm still healing, but I am good to go out and about and nobody really seems to notice. My lips still feel a bit stiff and weird. Honestly though a little better every single day. I'm very happy! So far so good!!! :)

Thanks for sharing your story. When you smile and show your teeth can you see more teeth and gum or does it look the same? Are you happy with the appearance when you do a 'big smile'?

Post op update!
Scar gets better each day. Still can't smile :) today I tried to rub my lips together after gloss was applied that didn't work out so well. Lips are just so stiff still and not really moveable.

My stitches were taken off after 11 days post surgery... so dont be suprosed that you cant smile after only6 days post :) stifness will gone around 6 weeks... after one month I start aplly gel for scar or manuka honey... your stiffnesd will be softner enough to smile around 2 or 3 weeks post... but you will still feel a stiffnes as funny feeling and after longer smilling sometimes a pain or get a little swollen... it is natural that body need a time to recovery and product new tissues .... that your skin look already "stick together" it doesnt mean is "done" under... now your body start producting more collagen to heal your wound... do you really think cut off some skin could be healled after one week? It is surgery not only visit at beauty saloon :) xx I was worry as well but I was more patient :) x

I'm doing great! Very happy with this surgery! I posted an update but I'm 11 days post op and it gets better every day. Scar is virtually gone and easily covered by make-up! Loving it!!!

you look fantastic! wow! you're right....the scar is virtually gone!!!! it's good to know that you are out and about! in terms of people close to you that did not know abt the procedure....do they notice a difference and if so how are you responding to their questions?!?!? also....is it getting any easier to smile yet? again.....your lips look beautiful!!!!!!

It's definitely getting easier to smile. I seriously only told a few friends and so far no one else has said anything. If friends ask I will just tell them the short version that I had some skin removed under my nose. If it's not a close friend my response will be huh??? What are you talking about???? Lol!! I went to 2 parties this weekend and no one said anything. So we will see how this goes... Bottom line is it's my face... My choice. I'm very happy and that's all that matters right??? I know it will continue to get better with time... So it may turn out to be one of those things where people think something's different... Did she change her hair? Weight Loss??? Different make up??? Lol
