Hello, stranger in the mirror
I'm still a little swollen at the nose area but basically the lower jaw swelling has gone down almost completely. The corner of my mouth is still a little dark due to bruising during the surgery (what I heard is they use some tools to force open your mouth during the surgery.)
Ok some people commented I look kinda fair. NO. That's PALE. Lack of food I guess. And I guess invasive surgery is still damaging to the health in one way or another. Plus I am still growing haemoglobin. Hahaha...
From the picture, it's hard to believe I deflate from a pig's head to this state in mere 14 days. My OS did mention I have minimal swelling and that I am recovering at a very fast rate. Hopefully, my splint can come off faster than normal people.
Picture below: This was taken before my surgery.U can so see my upper teeth and braces.
Picture below: This is post-op. U dun see my teeth anymore. Or the white white thing u see is the splint. I had Lefort Osteotomy and lower segmental hofer osteotomy.
Which means I had 4 pre-molars pulled out:
And I had the excess bones removed and joined together with metal plates i think..hahaha
I still have trouble recognizing myself when I look into the mirror. I try to cover myself nose down so I can use my eyes to recognize myself. Ha.
I still need time to get used to the new placement of the jaws and new position of my teeth I guess.
Meanwhile, it's still "Hello stranger" for me.
Great, my mum is frying bacons now. The smell is killing me.
