Liplift

These are pics with no coverup on the incision. The main difference is I see the incision has relaxed a lot. It no longer pulls the skin toward the scar so much. But it has keloided a little bit for me but not noticeable, only to the touch and if I rub it. I plan to laser it a bit after 6 months. I still don’t like my smile and there’s still quite a bit of tension on it when I try, I can only smile that much you see on the pic without the skin on the side of my nose stating to pull. My original smile was way huge and big and showed a lot of teeth, which I liked and I’m hoping it will return to normal. As for the lip at rest I so think it’s improved since my before pic but there are certain angles I still think it looks too high in the middle and the upper lip is very short. I think my original intention was to get plumper lips and shorten my upper lip a little but I didn’t realize at some point it would look weird if it went too short. I included a pic of Moana that I was amazed about how short hers was but it was cute. But then again she’s animated and over exaggerated. Overall I’m still in the middle about if I’m happy or not. There are some days I think it looks great and others I see it at a bad angle in a photo and I think it looks unnatural.

So it’s official, I am now single bc of this. I didn’t post a 4th week bc it’s been looking about the same imo. I have a bump on my right side that isn’t going away and is tricky to cover with makeup, the left side is pretty good, just red, but I was told asian skin can discolor like that and take longer to go away but will eventually. These pics are some with makeup covering the scar and some without, I think which is which will be obvious. I still am waiting for the center of my lip to drop and the actual Lip to flip out, right now it still seems the middle is a little puffy like a birds beak. And my smile is terrible so I cover it a lot when someone makes me laugh but I’m told it will go back to normal close to 3 months and I do believe so as I’ve seen on other reviews. Goondnight RS family!

Yah, so.... that was totally unexpected. I even told him I was doing this beforehand and he said ok. And now that he sees it he says ‘u look like a different person, i know It still needs to heal. But now you’re someone that does plastic surgery. I don’t know if I like that. You’re just going to do more and more and look crazy... why dont u age gracefully? u were so beautiful before why did u change it? Are you that insecure? I have to think about this...’ wow. Effing unexpected and I’m honestly livid and hurt. He hasn’t spoken to me in a week and when he does I’m going to hand him his sh$t and slam the door in his face. This is one aspect of ps I didn’t consider. Ladies make sure you have a rock and a foundation of a man and not a sad sack of pebbles like him.
As far as the lip, I’ve done some comparison pix here and the main thing is not the lip shape, which I love, it’s that since the distance is so short now, it makes everything else look so long. My nose looks longer, my forehead looks longer and my cheeks look long. I dislike the profile and since it dropped a tiny bit, I sometimes like the frontal look and I sometimes don’t. Which is an improvement from before. I’m still unsure about this but I’m hopeful for the 3rd month to show me a considerable drop, since It has dropped a little bit in the last week... the incision is still tight and uncomfortable and super weird looking when I smile or laugh. So I’m deadpan all the time. And just now at 3.5 weeks I got my first bubble which the dr says is the stitch dissolving under the skin and should go away shortly as long as it isn’t itching. Which it isn’t.
Sorry got real personal but I feel that this is absolutely related to the procedure. Not only the physical difference and my mental psyche but those loved ones around me that affect my life. Thank you everyone for the supportive comments and conversations.
