In the age of the selfie and everyone on stand by snapping pictures, it's hard to get away from the insecurity I have because of my "other" chin. I'm tired of always looking for "the right angle" before allowing myself to be photographed. No matter how much weight I've lost or gained over the years... My double chin has been a constant fixture. I don't want to see it or worry about hiding anymore.

The doc and staff have been awesome! There is one small are that I am concerned with but have been assured that it's normal and I am healing great. I've also been put at ease knowing that if something needs to be revised that it will be taken care of. As of now... 3.5 weeks post op... I am happy with the progress and improvement.

Did you have lipo on your neck, too? I have the same lumps. They haven't gotten any better a year later so I am having a revision. Your jawline looks nice.

Thank you. Did they tell you that they would go away? I'm hoping that if a revision is necessary that they don't wait a year praying for a miracle that won't happen.

What all will your revision entail?

I am not really sure. I have an appointment this week and I will set a date and get the details. All I know is that he will only be doing an incision under my chin. No incision around my ears.

I started complaining around the second month and was told to give it time. Finally around the 8th month he agreed to do the revision and I decided to wait until summer. The original surgery was done at the hospital now the revision will be done in the office while I am awake. I am kind of scared. Was your surgery done while you were awake?

No. I was sleep. But I am expecting that if there is a revision that I will be awake and under local anesthesia for a small cut and stitch to pull tight and even out.

Being patient and having confidence in my doc. Looking directly at me... Most people don't notice this. But when I tilt my head down its more obvious to the eye. Still like it better now than it was 2 months ago.

It will take about 6 months for it to smooth out and about a year for the scar to almost disappear. It gets better every month - so don't get too stressed about how you can see it at certain angles. Mine took a similar path and at about 6 months I saw exactly what I wanted. It will all work out in time :)

I'm having some soreness below my ears that I wasn't having previously. Very tender. The scar looks well. I still am a bit unhappy with the protrusion below my chin on both sides. I still have time to wait for settling. I hear this is common.
