Hi

I am not afraid to share my experience, especially to those that are considering this procedure. My insecurity wasn't brought to my attention till some time in high school. There was something I hate about myself-- I always felt fat despite having a 8 percent body fat in high school. After high school, I was able to pin point why I feel that way. It was the lack of a chin that causes me to feel I could never be a better version of myself despite working out. I felt like it was consuming me and made a huge influence with all aspect of my life. That includes romance, school, and work. I felt unmotivated to complete things. Slowly but surely, my life became less desirable and was on a path that I didn't really want. I know, it must be strange and ridiculous that I feel something so trivial can impact my life in such a major way, but it does. These last couple months, I eventually mustered up the courage to take the first step by scheduling an appointment out of state in Newport Beach, California. I research several doctor before deciding with Dr. Elam. I was on vacation with my family at the time and figure it was a good time for a consultation. I ditch them while they attended Disneyland for my consult. I was given a mock up photo as well as estimated price. Dr. Elam suggested a medium size implant even though I feel a large would be better. Fast forward two months, I decided to go through with it. Today was the day and I just got out of surgery. The pain was a lot more tolerable than I expected. I would give it a 3 or 4 out of 10 in pain. I am writing this from my hotel room. Will update after I wake up. Bye ????
