when they opened your face up again, how much swelling occurred? How was it? and the recovery?

also, did you become numb in places again? I am asking not because I am planning having my metal removed right now( I am only 8 wks post op), but my septum got moved during the surgery and now my surgeon want to open me up again and correct the septum and then close me again. He said this is similar to when they open you and remove screws.

I had slight numbness again after one of my plates was removed. You will probably have minimal swelling. Good luck
