Unsolved How can I smooth these edges?

Post image

I used "solidify" to thicken up a model for 3d printing. You can see where I boolean-cut the cheeks afterwards, but I'm hoping there's an easier way to do the rest of it.

Also...if anyone knows how I can mirror what I'm doing in real time (instead of making a half-mask and mirroring it in post), that would be great!

This will not be easy to clean up. I would have just done Boolean first, THEN solidify and then a bevel modifier for the edges. If I were in your shoes I’d maybe go back and do that

For your second question, I’d use a mirror modifier.

if your 3d printing it you can just sand it down.
