Title: 1 Week Post-Op
Post by: Hurtfulsplash on October 05, 2011, 09:39:14 AM
Hey all, I had my surgery on September 27th, everything went well and recovery is easier than I expected. A lot of stress and anxiety was relieved when it was done. I'd like to get your opinions on my results, there's still a lot of swelling, and I'm a little unhappy that the right side is lower than the other, but what do you think?

2 days after surgery

Congrats. It looks like the incision followed the contour of what was there. Think most folks are asymmetrical.
Once the swelling has gone down more and the scars heal, it will probably not even be noticeable.
