This is really absurd, but it has been leaving me in torment for the past 6 months. What originally started was me being unsatisfied with the way I look (the massive amount of hairs on my face - well not massive, but quite a few I suppose). Did some research and went ahead for hair removal treatment (Electrolysis). Treatments were done on the lower part of the face including lips. At first was great, problem emerged 8 months after when I woke up one morning and saw disfigurement in my mouth. One side of the lips was slighty slanted, can feel it when I talk, the tightness in the area - completely unnatural.
Figured it was nerve damage, didn't go away for a month. In a mode of desperate panic, I held up my two hands (a stupid move probably), placed them on my mouth, and begin rubbing it like it wasn't my own. Continued the action vigorously, daily, figured it would loosen up the nerve and rectify the problem - but I guess it didn't. In turn, my mouth became enormous.
Seen doctors, including a Neurologist and nothing could be done. Said it would eventually heal on its own.
It's now 6 months past. Although I admit the swelling doesn't look as bad like it was at first, but it's still very visible. My mouth would occassionally
feel tired because of the tension caused by the swelling. It has also screwed up my facial expression making me look like an angry person and negatively impacted my relationship with others and my social life. I've went into depression and thought about suicide before. It has also resulted me with social anxiety and been locking myself up in the house for a long time.
What do you guys think?
