Cheek Implant W/ Smart Lipo Under Chin

For years I've been dissatisfied with my lack of cheekbone structure, one that both my mom and sister were blessed with. I also have an abnormal amount of fat around my cheeks and chin, so no matter how lean I get, my face persists with a baby-like" feature. I sought my doctor to visit options to correct this. We decided on mild cheek implants and smart Lipo below chin area.

Its been 3 days after my cheek implant surgery and thought I would journal my experience, particularly because I found patient reviews scarce and from the reviews I received, appears to be mixed conclusion if the procedure is worthwhile. I also had under chin smart-Lipo, sidalaze, Day 1-2 I don't recall much, slept most the first 48 hours. Pain meds were Vicodin and a muscle relaxer. Pain was high, 8 out of 10 and very uncomfortable. My first pst-op visit day 3, my cheeks are beyond swollen, 3x what I expected and I'm hating life. At this point, all I can think is what a giant mistake this was and Hoping the future will leave me more optimistic.

Front shot and side shot. Will continue to add photos as time goes by.

My sister and I joke because I resemble any actor you see wearing a fat suit, like you know what they normally look like, but appear over-bloated and with an extra-fold of skin all around the face and under the chin. So far, I'm kicking myself every day for doing this to myself. As an overly-active athletic person, it's clear I have another 10-14 days before I can even consider med-impact activities, so this certainly stacks the deck, add another fat "con" to the "pros/cons" list.
