It looks good. The swelling varies from person to person and even in best of cases lingers for 2 months. You are middle aged so might take a bit more. Please include the forehead in next pics.
Btw is your health and sleep ok? You look much more bloated now than your last update in which you actually look quite good.
Oh i wond how its done" what muscle is involved with jaw impl is that why its hard TO YAWN NOW
The swelling can be hard to deal with. I had jaw and cheek implants a few years ago and I'd say it took around 6 months to look anything like normal. Hang in there, it'll subside. Just think of how the muscle etc had to be removed from the bone and all the trauma that's caused and you'll see that 4 weeks to repair that damage is actually quite a short amount of time. Also people with thicker skin will take longer fro the swelling to resolve.
Good advice. I bet you are younger too. That can be a factor.
Did you do your implants with Eppley larsvg?
Hi, nope I got them with dr Wittenberg in Vancouver but hoping dr Eppley can resolve my problems!
Ah ok, I'm looking into having implants with him too :)
Yes definitely. Just focus on the fact that the best possible surgeon in the world did the surgery :)
Yes tk im bloated yes unfortunately, its i guess fr sur
