This looks AMAZING Anika. I'm so jealous. I'm one week out and still pretty swollen and numb. Crossing my fingers my results are half as great as yours! I also went to Dr. Sterry :)

So I went to my post op appointment with Dr Sterry. He said I should get great results..seeing that he removed almost 200 cc of fat. I am still swollen and the results isn't very noticeable yet. The full results should show in 3 months. My jaw line/ chin area is still slightly numb and bruised that should resolve in a month or so (according to the doctor). I will post pictures once I notice some improve and change in a few weeks.

Hey Anika! How's your healing coming along? I'm one day post op and super swollen and numb... Was just curious what improvements you've seen in the past 10 days?

Hey seeing improvement every day. I am still numb near the ear area but that will definitely take time to heal so just wait for that. I massage the area everyday twice a day that helps. Some lumps are present under the chin but not noticeable. Happy healing good luck!

Ok so I got my chin liposuction yesterday and I'm now recovering. So after filling out paperwork we got started. The most painful part would be the first needling going in the chin (numbing med). Once that is complete you are numb and can't feel any pain. However you will feel that strange sensation of the cannula moving back and forth (scary). I think that was the most uncomfortable part about the procedure.. Listening to the crunching noise from the cannula scrapping the fat and breaking past the fibrous tissues (I had a lot of fibrous tissues *sigh) since it's right next to the ear (????). I just took a shower and I am swollen, not experiencing any pain the area is just extremely tinder to the touch. I applied the arnica cream and just take my meds and eating lots of pineapples lol. Also the garment is tight however I feel like I'm getting used to it. Few more days till I am able to remove this garment yay!

I just had mine done in Korea on the 8th. I was so nervous about having the twilight IV anesthesia but after reading your description, I'm glad! I hate wearing the compression wrap but I know how important it is so I will do it for the full week. But I cant wait to wash my hair!!!
