Good progress

Today I feel an acute type of pain on the left side of my face near the implant. Not sure if it's because my numbness is going away so i can start feeling pain. Hope it'll go away as it recovers. The pain is very annoying, it comes and go throughout the day.

Your results look great already!! What size did you get? Extended anatomical or just anatomical? I am 5 days post op right now with a Large Anatomical Implant.
I'm to sure since the doctor hasn't mention in during the pre-op nor post-op. He did insisted on a medium size implant because of my small facial features. I told him I feel a large is better but he just shrug it off. During my pre-op, I told him my expectations and he still insisted on a medium. But during the surgery, i guess he fitted a large in there and said it looks good so...cheers!
*I'm not sure*
Awesome, I'm glad you got the large like you wanted. I think it suits you well.
It looks so good!!
Thx

Progress

As soon as Dr. Elam took off the bandage, he said it looks good. His assistant came in after and also complimented on the look and told me to go check it out in front of the mirror. I notice a huge difference, it looks great from the front. But from the side, it looks a little too big. After going home, I did think about how it might be too big but I knew there was still a lot of swelling to go down before i get the complete picture of what it looks like.

After about a week and two days, I notice the front vertical length that was unveiled to me has shrunk. The vertical length still looks good but not as good as before. The side looks a lot better.
