This video is taken three days or 72 hours after Dr. Castellano completed my Lifestyle Lift surgery as well as my Blepharoplasty or eyelid lift surgery. You will see that I removed my wrap and bandages so you can see my progress and my incisions around my ears and under my chin for the liposuction.
I’m very bruised in my neck and even down into my shoulders at this point. I’m also very tight through my chin and neck. I’m treating my sutures with a mixture of peroxide and water and my bruising with Arnica bruise gel. Pain and discomfort is still a problem, and since I could not tolerate the Vicodin I am treating my pain with Extra Strength Tylenol.
At this point I am happy that I’m beginning to be able to open my mouth more which means I can enjoy a good meal again. I missed that. Overall I am happy with my progress and I’m very thankful that I have not had any complications.
