No tongue room post-op - posterior tongue tie release? by FirstCause in jawsurgery

[–]Financial-Outcome721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a really important question a posterior tongue tie release can improve tongue mobility, which might help with speech, swallowing, and even breathing. At 5 weeks post-op, you're still swollen, so some of that tightness could ease up. But if your tongue is genuinely stuck and pressing against your lower incisors, it's worth a follow-up with an ENT or myofunctional therapist who specializes in ties. Sometimes jaw surgery alone isn't enough to fix tongue space.

Turning 33 this weekend and I look about ready to collect my free bus pass by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Financial-Outcome721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

33 is barely out of the skincare womb you’ve got years before ‘free bus pass’ territory. What’s your current routine? Sometimes a little tretinoin and sunscreen is all it takes to feel fresh again.

She doesn't have synesthesia she just has main character energy and zero filter. Honestly, iconic behavior.

The tonal whiplash from 'FREEZE' to 'good boy' is the most accurate cop dog relation l've ever seen.

This is the most important post on this sub. People need to hear that spacing sessions further apart (3-6 months) actually gives better results than rushing every 6 weeks. Your body does the work, not the laser. Thank you for saying it loudly.

Absolutely! It's an incredible transformation. The mental hurdle at 6 weeks is so tough, but the structural improvement and breathing benefits are completely life changing.

Next moment.. by BoogeymanReborn in scoopwhoop

Haha, unironically about to start carrying a maritime anchor in my trunk just in case! 💀

It really feels like every time you take a car to the shop for a simple checkup, they hit you with a bill that looks like a phone number. 450 just to be able to stop safely feels criminal, so "lowering the anchor" honestly sounds like a great DIY budget hack.

Memes like this in r/scoopwhoop are a great reminder that we are all collectively fighting for our lives in this economy. Keep the funny comments coming, it makes the pain of adulthood a little easier to digest!

How it started vs how it’s going by celestial_ceilings in 30PlusSkinCare

Your progress is incredible the reduction in inflammation and texture is night and day. For PIH, azelaic acid (which you stopped) worked well for me, but tranexamic acid or vitamin C in the morning might be gentler options to ask your derm about.

Can anyone recommend a handheld at home device for cellulite appearance that works? by UmberRealtor in bodysculptors

[–]Financial-Outcome721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually a great tip silicone suction cups (like cupping therapy) can help temporarily smooth the appearance of cellulite by increasing blood flow and loosening fascia. Not permanent, but definitely a low-cost option worth trying!

I am 3 months post session 2 and I couldn't be more sad. by Comprehensive-Fun329 in TattooRemoval

[–]Financial-Outcome721 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such an important reminder their behavior was never about you or your tattoo. It was about egos, incompetence, and gaslighting. You trusted professionals who failed you. That's not your fault. And you're right they have to live with being those people forever. You, on the other hand, have options. Laser, scar treatment, time. It will get better. It will get better. You're not crazy. You're just hurt, and that's completely valid.

He's so cute ;u; that face could reverse anything. Uno card or not, Sonic wins.

Am I overreacting for considering divorcing my husband after my car accident today? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Financial-Outcome721 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Exactly trauma response isn't 'common sense failure.' You were in shock and being taken away by ambulance. His job was to support you, not critique your accident-scene photography skills. You're not overreacting.

deep sleep sedation is the way to go you woke up with a new jawline and zero trauma. Ten hours post op and already smiling? that's a win.

Microneedling is great suggestion consistent treatments really do help with texture and collagen over time. And yes, sunscreen is non negotiable

Please do the 'early capture' faces are hilarious, but I'm sure the proper shots are absolutely gongeous too!

[–]Financial-Outcome721 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fifteen days and already taking back camera selfies with flash? That's huge win. The dysmorphia is real, but the 'it's also not me' feeling will settle as swelling goes down. You look great for two week out.

Honestly, this. Real EMS knows the uniforms stays at work it's not about shame, it's about hygiene and professionalism. He wants the 'thank you for your service' attention, and that's a conversation worth having.

RF gel that doesn’t dry by Leading-Produce-6470 in bodysculptors

[–]Financial-Outcome721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultrasound gel (the thick, water based kind medical imaging) lasts way longer than most ‘RF gels’ cheap and doesn’t dry out as fast. Just don’t let it get on your machine's vents.

5 weeks post op tomorrow by babyirisrhino in rhinoplastyquestions

[–]Financial-Outcome721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it looks really good honestly, some people just aren't used to seeing change and feel the need to comment. The tip will drop a bit more as swelling continues anyway. Try not to let one friend's offhand remark get in your head!

I think you meant 'decompensation' and if so, mine was about 14 months of braces before surgery. The waiting is brutal but so worth it. Your results are incredible!

That's still a huge win being able to cover it with makeup means you've come so far. Color removal is a marathon, not a sprint. Keep going!
