Posting my day-7 review!
The swelling has gone down a lot compared to the beginning! But it’s still tight and puffy, so my family teases me and calls me Hamtori, but I’m still happy because I went from being super puffed up to Hamtori..
For pain, because I laughed so much yesterday and today, the stitched areas inside my mouth feel a little tight and my lips tingle a bit from time to time. The stitched areas won’t get inflamed just because I laughed, right? ㅠㅠ I’m worriedㅠㅠ
I walked around inside the house for exercise, and for food, I got tired of eating only soup, so I put castella bread in it, mashed it up, and ate it. When I said I wanted ice cream, one of my family members bought me a pint from Baskin Robbins with no chunks in it, so I ate about half of that! I know that walking more helps the swelling go down faster, but it’s not easy to go outside ㅠㅠ Tomorrow will be my first outing in a week.
I’m planning to go to the hospital with my mom tomorrow to have the stitches beside my ears removed, and they said they’ll do Healite, infrared, radiofrequency, and a recovery injection (I asked about aftercare during the first consultation and wrote the names down because they were difficult), so I’ll receive those and come back!
They say it’s unlimited, but since I live in the provinces and it’s hard to go, I plan to go once a week! I’ve never had skin care before, so I don’t really know what’s what, but I should ask while I’m getting it tomorrow.
They said if a lot of swelling hasn’t gone down by week 2, they’ll also give me a swelling injection. If I receive it, I’ll post that in my week-2 review haha
Tomorrow, before going out, I washed my hair for the first time in a week (gross... but I had stitches beside my ears, so I couldn’t help itㅠㅠ). I recommend going to a hair salon if possible.. I washed it lying down, and it felt like I was a critically ill patient... My whole family mobilized to wash my hair.. I’m grateful, but since they’re not professionals it was uncomfortable, and at one point my jaw got bumped, so I yelled outㅠㅠ I strongly recommend leaving it to a professional!
