May 20th update!

I am doing great, NO MORE spitting stitches for me! Dr. Rosenberg injected the areas that were affected with (I believe) cortisone and all is well now.
I will return to his office in the next few weeks for a 6 month check up and post again at that time.
Happy Camper! :)

It's February 20th and...

I still have spitting stitches! Mind you, they aren't horrible, but they return in different places. Mostly they are very annoying, itchy and I go to Dr. Rosenberg to get them taken out.

He told me that only about 20 % of people get this lovely side effect and eventually they will either dissolve (as they were supposed to) or finish spitting out.

So.... apart from a little continual swelling under my chin and some on my neck, around ear, etc things are moving forward.

My ears are still sensitive. Even the tips of my ears (where there was no incision) feel very odd. I am certain that is normal and that all the nerves are figuring out how to realign due to the incision in front of and behind the ear.

Will update with photos in a week or so!

A little over 6 weeks later

6 + weeks out

Swelling has moved downward so jawline is not quite as sharp at this point. This is all normal as swelling does move down.

Some internal stitches on scalp are coming to the surface. This is called Spitting Stitches and is normal too. Went to doctor and they just cut the ends. It just itches a little but nothing to worry about.

Behind ears still sensitive but getting better. Yesterday I had my hair colored and highlighted which did not cause me any discomfort although I have to make sure that no one touches my ears :)

Thanks! This is my latest post. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

HIGHLY recommend. Dr. Rosenberg is brilliant and meticulous at his craft. He has integrity, great bedside manner, is professional and a great listener. He will NOT do something that he does not believe is correct and he will NOT create a 'done' , wind tunnel look. If you want that overdone look, don't look to him. He is about preserving the architecture of your face and creating a beautiful, rested, natural look. I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to have him work on me and will definitely return to him when the time arises for any 'updates'. The professionalism and hospitality at his office is something I have never experienced before and I am no amateur to plastic surgery. Everyone there is accommodating, kind and very knowledgeable. You can tell that everything is done with professionalism and also with empathy for the patient. Very well organized. Dr. Rosenberg (as well as his staff) are diligent about their protocol , how their patients are treated, and he is especially interested that everyone did their part along the way from office staff to nursing. I was actually surprised that he asked to hear any input on how things were done (after surgery nursing, etc) and if I felt that there was anything that needed to be addressed. He was quite open and told me that he does not keep staff that doesn't keep up with his standards and expectations and you can bet that the nurses were all great because they are still with him. Thanks to Nurse Marilyn (she was such a delightfully funny upbeat person) , Nurse Karen (was so nurturing and I felt like she was my mother...as she spoon fed me my yogurt and washed my hair), Nurse Debbie (organized and on top of her game) and Nurse Kim (who is gorgeous, kind, and I absolutely adore). Thanks to all of you for your care. Anyway, back to Dr. Rosenberg: he is a perfectionist in EVERY way. You really don't see that kind of integrity as often as you would expect to nowadays. Dr. Rosenberg is really busy so I respect his time and I tend to write down my questions ahead of time so I am organized and get the most from my visits. My advice: if you need to wait to save some funds to see him , DO IT. It's well worth it.
