Just Turned 25! Had a Much Needed Kybella Injection After Years of Bad Photos! - Wilmington, NC

Good afternoon ladies and gents! I've been researching ways to get rid of this stubborn chin fat since I was 12! Went on diets, "kiss the ceiling" exercises, chewing gum, nothing worked. It was simply genetics. No amount of weight loss would fix. Proven, I graduated USMC basic training in 2012, at 100lbs, I am 5'5, if that says anything, the chin pudge was STILL THERE!!!! Curiously, I was googling prices of liposuction, and came across Kybella! I immediately got on the phone and scheduled my consult.
It has been 3 days, and I still have a bull frog look, but I made it out of the house today with a cute fall scarf, please ladies/gents get this in the fall or chilly weather so you can wear scarves and turtlenecks to hide the swelling. The swelling is real, don't think you are going to be the one with minimal swelled no that goes away in 3 days. Be realistic. You can go to work, ect, but there is slight discomfort, and pressure the first 3 days, which I am on day 3, and its easing up more.
Definitely request the lidocaine shots, because the pain of the injection really hurts, lol. On my right side there wasn't enough lidocaine and the pain throbbed to where my wisdom teeth once were. Weird right? Obviously a nerve, which is another, there are lots of nerves in your neck, so request the lidocaine shots and ice for immediately after.
I could swallow just fine, but I am a big baby so I just souped it for the week. Prepare for that. And prepare to be scared to look in the mirror. I sure was.
I had minimal bruising, and the pain subsides after 20 minutes.
I am so excited to see my results, which can take 2-4 months, I really just can't wait to stop wearing a scarf, it gets old.lol
Totally worth it for me, because I am super confident in my Doctor and I know it will look amazing, sooner or later. Be brave and go for it. The younger the better, that's why I did it, since my skin still has a lot of elasticity, but I'm 25, so it is probably losing elasticity before my eyes and I don't even know it yet.lol

Here's some before pix, sorry I dread taking those photos and I had to crop and zoom in like a trillion.you can see the pudge though

I'm still pretty swollen, numb, weird feeling where I got my injections. Thankfully it's chilly out, I've been avoiding going places but can manage with a cute scarf and turtleneck. The swelling went down a ton but still, swollen. I'm hoping it really goes down before I visit family for thanksgiving. I don't want to have to explain, they are extremely against any alterations.

If you don't like something about yourself, change it, don't sit around and pout about it, then say, but God made you this way. Really doesn't help you. I joke around and say, yeah maybe He had too much wine when he was making certain things on me, or got tired because I was taking too long.lol!!!!

Jokes aside, if you have something you just don't like, for a reasonable....reason??...like proportions ect, just stop complaining about it and make it better for yourself. Who cares what anyone says, it's your confidence that is being effected!!!

Love
