Chin implant: Jowls still look puffier than before - no change there. Still swelling in my cheeks overall. Going to just have to wait to see how it goes over the next couple of weeks.
Rhinoplasty: Now, that I have the cast off, I’m not feeling near as zombie-girlish. The piggy nose isn’t near as noticeable (Thank you, God - I literally prayed all the way to the doctor’s office!). But, now, it’s so chubby! I cannot wait for the swelling to go down! I don’t feel like I look like myself, but I actually like my profile. Progress!

Rhinoplasty & Chin Implant

Had rhinoplasty on 2/11 to address bulbous tip and small hump. The chin implant was to smooth jowling and help with face proportions.
The office staff as well as the neighboring ambulatory center staff are all truly wonderful. They're friendly, warm and welcoming. Honestly, the degree of humanity displayed has been so out of the ordinary to me that I've mentioned it already to several people.
Dr Mesbahi has been equally fantastic. He's prompt to return calls, answers all texts and has been friendly throughout.
Today is only day 6, so I don't know about the outcome yet. So far, my concerns are:
1. Piggy nose (really freaking me out)
2. Too much distance between nose and lip. (Zombie girl? Skeleton? Who knows. Not good)
3. Jowls look worse that they did before.
My hope is that I don't really have a piggy nose and that it's just taped that way, and when my nose is released that will fix the 2nd issue as well. Not sure about the 3rd. A bit perplexing. I see filler in my future but we'll see. Splint comes off tomorrow!

I don't know much about rhinoplasty but I would think you are early in recovery at day 6. You should call your surgeon. Would you mind posting more pics of chin implant?
I can see that the implant definitely looks like it made your chin less narrow but can't really see a full view.
You are very pretty anyway but I bet it will get better!
