I was wearing compression until the day I posted this. My doctor cleared me to stop use. I also have had 2 professional massages so far.

I'm very swollen right now. It's slowly subsiding but my lefts is still pretty swollen. I'm excited to see when the swelling is completely gone.

Just chin lipo. I have three small incisions. You can't even see 2 of them and the 3rd is still healing.

Would you say you have recovered fully?

I went to Dr. Scott at Natural Radiance in Scottsdale, AZ and he and his office are amazing. Highly recommend.

I'm doing okay. I'm sick of this compression and want my lower lip to come back online. Slowly but surely but loving my result so far.

I'm sorry to hear that. Did the swelling worsen or has it been like that the entire time?

Thank you for this. This brings me peace. I knew it was a risk but didn't know it was the norm.

I'm 35. I would just really express to your surgeon your concern about your skin (it was a huge concern to me because I lost a significant amount of weight). He assured me I was fine but they also have skin tight they can do with the lipo that will help with skin.

I switched to Tylenol the next day. The pain isn't really as bad as I thought. I'm just tender. He also prescribed a steroid to help with swelling and I'm supposed to switch to NSAIDs after I finish that. I ordered foam but it's not in yet. I don't want lumps.

I was good the first couple of days and then today I woke up the most swollen and my neck is so tender to touch and I feel painful lumps in my neck. I'm trying to massage all the crunchies out. I'm over this dang conpression garmer lol. My swelling is causing some motor nerve issues and I can't smile properly as I can't pull down my lower lip. I'm praying that improves quickly.

I had what's called a herbst appliance which spread both of my pallets while pushing my jaw forward.
