Cursed with double chin/heavy neck

I am 35 years old and have been cursed with a very heavy neck and double chin. From the neck up I appear to be a very obese person however elsewhere I am pretty normal size. No matter how much diet or exercise it just would not budge. I have been extremely self conscious for years. I've finally decided to have smartlipo on my neck and chin. Scared to death that it may not work or will make matters worse.

Feeling very sore, some pain around jaw line . Hard to open mouth, lots of soft foods. Noticed some very dark bruising around the ears. Haven't yet fully removed dressings, docs instructions are to wait for day 3. Even more nervous now than on surgery day.

Removed my bandages to shower last night. Honestly I feel as though I'm headed for a nervous breakdown. I am terrified of how my neck will heal. I know this takes time and ultimately months before I see final results. I am a complete worry wort and dread the thoughts of returning to work and facing customers all day. I have lots of bruising near my ears and light bruising around the jawline and directly under the chin. I have swelling right at the jawline which is giving me this boxed/square faced look when forward facing.
