Back to work, still tired, and still swollen but much better. I look soooo much better than prior to surgery. Starting to feel more like me. Very happy with my results.

3 weeks today
Well it certainly hasn't been an easy recovery but things are starting to look quite interesting. It is three weeks today and I am starting to see the " me " emerge. Still lots of swelling but Dr. Marten did an amazing job. Still can't truly smile yet but in the next week I am hoping that will change. I have had some difficulty healing with the lip lift as the internal sutures are quite irritated. However, Dr. Marten and Helen have been supportive and available throughout. The swelling has gone down significantly this week but still look very swollen..... getting there... excited :).

Feeling a little down today
Not sure If my eyes are seeing correctly but looking awfully weird today. I keep looking at the pictures of before the swelling really blossomed to remind myself that this is temporary . Today is just harder than any other day so far....

Aww, sorry to hear that. This too shall pass. You were smart to take photos before the swelling. Hope it starts to go down soon! I'm sure it will.

How hard is it to get a consultation with him?
Does he do online / Skype consultations or does he only do them in person?
