I feel good about myself
4,325Looking back; I think I was scared to undergo surgery but all I can think is that I make the right choose of getting the surgery. If I looked average normal male, now days I’m more confident to take photos and I feel good about myself. 87 0 13012 After 30 days It’s nearly one month after my surgery; most of the swelling seems to be gone and now I think I’ve become more handsome than before!
I dress up and do my hair before I go out and I can’t stop looking at myself. Most of the stitches inside my mouth has melted away there’s just cutting marks left but that should go away in time. I have to mention that my confidence has grown and it’s fun to take selfies; I think this is why everyone gets plastic surgery?
After 7 days It’s about a week after my surgeries; I had the drainage tube and think that was the hardest part but now I’m all good. I don’t feel pain so I’m amazing about that; just really wish the swelling would go down faster. Feel so good to get the stitches taken out; did feel pain but wasn’t that bad and I was worried that my eyes looked too feminine but think it’ll turn out good.
