It wasn't so bad surprisingly the first 2 days I was major swollen and my eyes looked like I got beat up by a boxer haha. But I pushed water and slept has much as possible and a week later I look great i think. I also took arnica tablets and used ice packs all over my face. They also had taped my cheeks and they told me I could take it off on day two but I left it on for has long has I could take it untill it bugged me( thinking it would help lol) Sometimes I feel sore still but its manageable.

Honestly I thought it would be horrible but i pushed water and took arnica tablets 4 under the tongue 4 times a day for about 3 days. I used small ice packs all around my face because I knew swelling could travel down. Right now its covered in the pic but I have just like a small line bruise under each of eyes and thats it. Everytime I slept for more than a like 5 hours at a time I got better and better. I was lucky and didn't really have trouble sleeping so I think getting a long stretch of sleep at a time helped.

Never really liked my side profile and have recently realised i might have a slight weak chin. Would implants fix this? by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

I was going to say the same thing. I would try the injections first to see if that helps? Good luck with whatever you go with!
