6 weeks out

I can't believe it's been six weeks already! It's been a bit mucky for me personally lately, but otherwise all is good. I go for my 6 week post-op appointment on Monday. Hopefully he can tell me if this 'stringy' apperance under my chin will go away. I'm hoping so, considering what I've read. For the most part I'm happy. I'm happy to turn my chin down to my neck and not have them smush together! My jowls definitely look better too. It's all very subtle, which I think is the benefit of doing something before it gets super droopsy. We do what we can do, right?

Day 15 pics

After spending the day with my bandage on and taking it easy, I'm feeling better about the way everything is looking this evening. I appreciate everyone's encouragement and words saying this is normal. I realize looking at the pictures I'm talking about minor changes, but they matter to me at this point, small as they may be. In some ways I feel like I'm being too picky, but it is what it is at this point and I'm positive I'll get to where I want to be in due time. In the meantime, I want to document this process for myself, and also for other people who go through it in future so they can feel comfortable when they reach this point. This is in the hope that weeks from now it will be all good! I am a worrier but I'm also an optimist!

Day 15

I've been crazy busy and unable to update. Everytime I've thought about it I've been totally exhausted and sleep sounded much better! The swelling is still present enough that I don't like taking pictures because my results are depressing right now. I know it's temporary but that doesn't mean I have to look at them in detail! I also know my profile is better, it's just not where it was day 1/2 when it looked the best. I'm pleased to note that if I tip my chin down to my neck there is no longer a big fatty roll that I can feel touching my chin, so that makes me happy. It's really just the angle right under my chin that I reserve judgment on. My scar is looking better, or so I'm told. It's hard for me to see it properly or take a good picture of it. Just to make myself feel better I've been wearing my bandage as much as possible when I'm home and I've been taking it easy as much as possible. I think I'll try and take some photos later on today and post them.
