Lopsided Smile Posted: 05-11-07 09:59am
I had a neck lift plus chin lipo 2 weeks
ago, and all went well apart from the fact
that I've been left with muscle weakness
and a lopsided smile. My mouth looks ok in
the relaxed position, but when I start to
talk it's noticeable that the lower right
part of my lip doesn't go with the flow.
It's really obvious when I smile. I'm so
self-conscious of this, and so distressed,
I wonder if anybody else has experienced
this. My surgeon says it's probably
bruised nerve, and should return to normal
in a few weeks, but I'm still scared it
will be permanent. I'd be so pleased to
hear from anybody out there who's had a
similar experience.
