UPDATE
Thanks for the support ladies. Holly in answer to your question that is me and the staff at the hospital said the same thing you did, that I looked like Angelina Jolie, but the swelling in my lips has gone down a lot don't you think? Michelle, the name of the cream is Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP, 0.1% and I use it every eight hours. It is a steroid cream to help with the swelling and believe me it has. My lips really hurt but feel so much better than they did. I also wanted to let you know that they gave me a lot of antibiotics by I.V. (8 bags) and I ended up with a yeast infection; just wanted you to be prepared, they gave me meds for it and the itching has stopped but not exactly something I wanted to deal with. Anyway, just glad that it's dealt with and one less thing to worry about. I am really tired so I'm gonna go now, will continue to keep you posted on my progress. Again, thanks for the support I love hearing from everyone.

I forgot to tell you I was not wired shut but do have elastics. I will take a picture tonight and post tomorrow. I am able to open quite a bit I think. So, anyway will post those pics tomorrow.
Heather, I noticed you have stitches on the sides of your face.. Did they make cuts from the outside?
I'm so excited for more pics!
By the way... nice profile. ;) Even though you are swollen, you look great!!!
It's good to see that your doing well and the swelling looks great - for now! Wait a couple more days. hehehe
Looking good and great that you're feeling well Heather! :-)
Keep up the positive attitude!
SOOO good to hear (and see) you back safe & sound!!! Hope med stuff gets sorted so as to be more effective for you :)
(I'm assuming the exterior cuts were from placing the bottom screws for the lower BSSO......Give it a couple weeks and you won't even know they were there!)
DEFINATELY Angelina Jolie-esq. HOT Mama!!
