3 weeks have come and gone!
The usual.. Swelling is continuing to resolve, and my brows seem to have dropped around 1mm each since my last photo post. I think my left brow still has a little bit more to go as is evident by the swelling still present near the hairline incision on the left side. The swelling atop my nose is considerably less, and I'm starting to see the contours of my face again = yaaayy! I am looking forward to not feeling like a balloon head!
Last night I had a bit of pus ooze out near the middle of the incision. I freaked out for a second but then wiped it away with some hydrogen peroxide and then applied some polysporin after it had dried. In the morning all that was left was a small little scab about 1mm wide. You can kind of see it in the first pic, but really it is unnoticeable and I'm pretty sure it was just a trapped hair as Mayer warned me about.
Here is a photo waiting at a red outside of work this morning (sorry for the crazy hair thing going on, I dry it on the way to work by opening up all the windows
):
And then tonight. Usually I would hate this lighting: strong overhead light that used to cast an enormous shadow over my eyes. Not really a concern I have anymore
There is still a lot of swelling getting trapped in the very middle of my forehead, the indentation test still works really well.
Getting lots of eye batting from people at work (I just started a short gig on Monday) and I don't think anyone suspects at all that I am trans. A really cute producer (kinda looks like Tom Cruise) sat next to me and was kind of awkward and soft spoken in the most adorable of ways. You could smell the sexual tension in the air. And then... Disaster struck. Later on I overheard him talking to one of the other freelancers about his WIFE. Buzzkill! Oh well
