4 month followup visit scheduled this Friday
Hi All,
Well I go for my 4 month followup on Friday and I've got to admit I'm a bit concerned. As time has gone by, the jowls seem to be returning more and the loose skin on my neck has increased. I will get some pictures posted later today or tomorrow. I have tried to remain upbeat and patient but it's hard when I see these things. I'm really curious to hear what he has to say about it all. I also have a couple of pretty noticeable scars behind my left ear and around both earlobes. The chin scar is better but still more noticeable than I'd like.

Pictures from one month post procedure
These pictures are from May 21 which is about 4 weeks out. I think they look better than I actually look. (Makeup works wonders) I have my follow up this Friday and I'm definitely going to address some issues that I still have. The scar under my chin is really bad and it is causing a crease between my chin and my neck. And I feel like my "jowls" are coming back as everything relaxes. Still a lot of random nerve pain in my neck and ears that feels like paper cuts. And the scars behind my ears haven't improved very much at all - especially the left side. And still not happy with upper lids. I know I have great improvement in my neck but I'm getting nervous that it's going to come back sooner rather than sooner since I'm already seeing some droop and laxity at only one month. Bottom line - at this point in time, I am NOT a happy camper! I feel like for the cost and risk of major surgery, I shouldn't have ANY "it's better BUT....." issues. I'll follow up after my appointment on Friday.
Eyelashes fell out!
Just thought of something else as just an FYI. Many of my eyelashes fell out! From the swelling and trauma to the lid I suppose. They fell in my eyes often so that has added to the eye issues in addition to the fact that I now have big gaps in my lashes. I'm not sure how long it takes for lashes to regrow but I certainly wasn't counting on this. I'm not a false eyelash person either so now I'm just hoping they are regrown by mid July when I go on my 15 year anniversary Alaskan cruise.
