Hi Roni,
Yeah I decided to post a couple pics because I'm healing so well! Sucha surprise! Thanks for the feedback, I think he did a good job on my forehead too. In my case we got rid of the bossing, but type II does not set the forehead "back"... I don't think I "needed" it per say, but I could have opted for it. We did agree right before surgery that once he got in there and had a "look around" that if type III was required then I wanted it and he would do it. Make sure you have that conversation
PS - If he recommends an upper lip reduction make sure he sees you smile first. He recommended it to me and I agreed initially, but I changed my mind last minute because I already show a lot of gum and teeth when I smile and I felt the reduction could exaggerate that. I expressed the concern and in response he wanted to see how my lips were resting once I was "under" and would then make a determination if the lip reduction was a good idea OR if fat infiltration would be a better option. He ended up doing the latter, so I'm glad I spoke up. Once you get to that pre-surgery consultation you get so excited you can forget your own name... make sure to write out your list of questions. Have a clear primary strategy going into the operating room but also an alternate strategy, plan B if plan A doesn't work.
Good luck! I'm excited for you! This is going to be the longest 4 weeks of your life, you know that right? :0
