Have I made a mistake getting my underbite corrected??
« on: May 11, 2013, 04:09:21 AM »
Hi everyone! My name is Sarah, 21 and just had my underbite surgery after waiting almost 10 years for it. I always thought I would be delighted with the results as I hated my profile (my chin was too big). But now it seems like I have no chin at all and I keep getting these horrible "did I make a mistake" thoughts.
I know I'm only on day 5 and the swelling is still really bad, especially in my lips but most people are usually delighted with their results even with swelling.

Here's me before, you can see my face was very long and I had a bad underbite:

Here's me after on day 3:

And now on day 5 (swelling considerably worse.)

I know Ive always hated my chin but now I feel as if I've lost a huge part of me. If you guys could be honest and give me your opinions that would be great! Thanks

I think your gonna look great.   You are only a few days out.   Concentrate on getting stronger and letting your body heel.
Distract yourself with walks and movies or something.
