OK, here are the "after" pictures. First let us refresh our minds about what "before" looked like:
Let's ignore the fact that the little goatee makes me look like a gay pirate. The beard actually helps illustrate what I call "the pain zone". First of all, I wasn't able to shave under my nose for 7 days because there were two pieces of white plastic sticking out of my nose over my lip. Also, pressing under my chin with a razor created an nice jolt of pain. I'm gonna shave the whole thing off really soon. I'm just not cool enough at 38 to carry off the slacker look. It is far too popular of "a look" for me. Besides, what's the point of finally losing weight in my face, if I'm just going to cover it up? So, by the time you read this the beard is probably already gone.
You can see in the top and especially the bottom picture, the slit right under my the septum of my nose where they sliced me. t actually shows up more in the pictures than it does in real life (at least, that's what everyone is telling me). I'm told that that scar will disappear very quickly. On an unrelated note: Man, do I have some major hair between my eyebrows! It's basically a uni. That's what happens when you've been on your back for almost two weeks.
But look, I don't have as much "chin fat" as I used to have. And the main thing is that my nose is somewhat straighter. As I said yesterday, I didn't go into this surgery for a straight nose, I went in to stop snoring. And now I don't.
