Hello all. Here is my 1 week update since surgery. I had some leaking of clear fluid from one area of stitches behind my ear and had some more drainage done from my chin area, but less painful this time. It is mainly due to me eating foods that cause more saliva production, like saty, spicy, and sour foods which is pretty much all Korean food😅. I’m eating more egg sandwiches and red bean cakes. My bruising and swelling has reduced, but will persist for months so I have to keep positive. I had my eye and some nose stitches removed. I have one more week until the lifting stitches around my ears and chin are removed. Minimal return of sensory input from the majority of chin, neck, and ears.

I am happy to see a drastic difference from before surgery. I also had my LED skin treatment. My CO2 laser peel has recovered with only a tiny spot with soreness. More updates in three weeks!
