Well, its been just 2 days shy of 4 weeks. I thought I'd try to match up my before/after photos with current ones.
I think I was wearing a small amount of makeup in the original photos, but the current photos are makeup free, so please ignore my splotchiness
I've also moved since I took the original photos, so can't quite create the same lighting. Also seems the camera was slightly lower, and shooting at a slight upward angle in the current photos.
The swelling goes down more every day, but these areas are still pretty noticeable:
-The tip of my nose
-Upper lip, up to and including the base of my septum (where the incision was made for the lip lift)
-Below my lower lip, above the chin implant
-Cheeks, all the way down to the jaw line.
Most of the swelling from my forehead and lower neck appears to have dissipated, but there is still probably a small amount.
I also thought I'd throw in a closeup photo of the two incisions on my neck from the trachea shave and chin implant. These have both looked amazing since the dressings were removed, they are simply going to heal up amazingly! As the stand, the are completely unnoticeable with a light coat of foundation. Dr. Mayer really did some amazing work closing these!
(please forgive the small amount of beard stubble!
I took these at the end of the day. I can wait to resume laser removal in another couple of weeks!!)
