Bett031, feeling depressed, blue or "down" is part of the package for many. It was even in my post op instructions for recovery. Regardless of the what kind of anaesthesia the PS has used, one can also figure that it takes time for it to get out of our systems. So it's easy to feel better, but not quite up to par and attach all of this to the work done on our faces and think it should be farther along or it's not quite symmetrical etc and then our minds start working. You said you were in the medical field right? So you get how long the drugs may affect our bodies. I remember thinking I had a very "plastic" and "waxy" look to my face post op, and it was a little scary to think it might stay that way. Keep telling yourself it's only temporary. Would love to see more before & after pics. From what I can see you look great! Hang in there. :)

Bett031 you look great! I can relate to feeling a little down. It comes and goes with me. My husband and someplace I read; said we we not perfect to begin with, nothing is ever "exact". He said to me "everyone has some differences in their face and body" I keep trying to think about his comment when I look at my face and think one eyebrow looks a little higher than the next, crinkle under my ear etc... Hang in there. Right now, we are all examining the surgery with a microscope. Time, I truly believe is a wonderful healing agent, for the body, and the mind.
In any case, you look fantastic!!!
