Update and disappointed

At this point I’m not sure about my implant. I have days I’m ok with it and days I’m disgusted with it. It helped my profile but has changed the shape of my face in the front... I had a more round face and now I have more of a square face. So disappointing as it took me 20 years to get the nerve up to do it n totally put my trust in the drs judgement... I completely should’ve educated myself about wings or no wings n what type of material. I think the dr is skillful n my scar healed well n it could’ve been worse... but that’s not good enough for 5500 dollars worth... I’m trying not to be a princess about it but I can’t gelp it no I’m more self conscious than before

I’ve been wanting this for years... it didn’t mat...

I’ve been wanting this for years... it didn’t matter how skinny I was I had this horrible chin. I’m writing this bc it helped me make decisions and I sought comfort here after my surgery. I at first wondered if I’d made the right decision bc my dbl chin appeared worse at first and my bruising took 3 weeks to go away... I still have a good amount of swelling but I can now see better results... cpl more weeks n I should see more final results. I’m still numb on the right side of my mouth but the staff at my dr office have been very good about letting me know all the things that are normal to feel. Dr Castellano is super understanding and even sweet... his staff very gentle to my vulnerable state. There was not really any pain... my biggest worry was sleeping and not wanting to mess anything up... I didn’t take any pain medication and my dr didn’t recommend wearing a garment after the first initial few days... there are mixed reviews on that but I had an implant in addition to lipo. My results are subtle but I’m excited to see the final results!! And look for to seeing Dr. Castellano for my next age defying venture.

Dr. Castellano is considerate to each individual unique case. The staff has been attentive to my sensitivity coming out of surgery. My results I believe might be a little slower than some but I’m starting to see my swelling go down ... but not completely, I feel like I might have at least another cpl weeks. At first I questioned if I made the right decision bc initially I felt my double chin looked worse. Some days it would look better than others. I had dr castellano do the jowl area and at first that looked bigger too!! I was starting to be discouraged but I’m on my 4th week and I’m seeing the difference. I still have numbness in the right side of my mouth n feel my smile is not even but I’m confident now after reading so many reviews that all this is normal. That’s why I’m writing this review... bc it helped me make my decision and I came here for comfort after my surgery. I can’t wait to see the final results!!
