I've wanted to do this for some time I hated my frog olé made me very insecure my face looked chubby and had chipmunk cheeks also looked like I had a big overbite. Finally decided to do it and had to go back to get it revised. The implant was too big didn't fit my small face it bothered me it restricted my speech and facial expressions like my yawn laugh etc. my skin was tight it pushed up again the bottom of my gums gods would get trapped my bottom lip was so sure he'd it was chapped and just was so uncomfortable so finally after 8 moths it was clear my face was not gonna stretch anymore and it needed to be replaced. I had the revision yesterday so far I feel good and I can already feel the difference in my bottom lip in the tightness and the stretched feeling of my chin I can lick my lips no problem I think I'm gonna be really happy and no more felling this thing in my face anymore looking forward to the results will keep you all posted.

What size of implant did you get?

You really should proof read your posts.... this entire thing is impossible to understand due to completely wrong words throughout every single sentence.

Sorry about the typo's on the previous post. Wrote it from my phone and on pain medication. So far I feel fine still swollen less pain today the first day was pretty intense 2 more days until bandages come off!

You look fabulous. Hope the recovery continues to go well. How did you like Dr Kolstad? Considering surgery with him as well and would love any feedback. Take care!

Thank you! I really like Dr. Kolstad I think he's a great doctor but I didn't have the best experience as far as the outcome but I guess with every surgery thats the risk you take. I was dreading having to do this again this was my last resort I waited almost 8 months and I could't imagine living like this any longer. I think it has improved my profile I look and feel better about myself I feel pretier especially in pictures I hope this fixes all the issues I was having because having to completely remove it would be devastating to me I think it has improved my profile and boosted my self confidence. What procedure are you having?
