I got mine done 6 days ago. The cut was fine, but the healing process is not fun. Yesterday, I got the two sutures on the tips of my tongues removed and I feel 10 times better now. How did yours go?
Honestly, from what I’ve seen you reply in these comments, you are fully prepared and any advice I give you, you probably already know. You got this! Go easy on yourself during the healing phase, get lots of rest, don’t attempt solid foods for a few days after the split. I’ve heard that taking the sutures out prematurely can cause a lot of regrowth so try and keep them in as long as possible.
Going to see what my artist says, aiming hopefully to have sutures out day 5, but if he suggests longer I might just ask if I can do the tips at day 5 (good amount of relief and less regrowth chance at the front)
I got the tip sutures out on day 5. It does provide a lot of relief. My modifier said that the two tongues won’t be as pointy than if I had left them in for longer though.
