A broadly flat face, a square jaw... and facial asymmetry caused by different jaw sizes on each side... I had always thought I would need to fix it someday, but I finally made up my mind and had surgery recently. Now that it has been 1 year, I thought it would be okay to post a facial contouring review, so here it is. 1. Why I chose the hospital I had surgery with Dr. Jeong Seong-mo at Cookie Plastic Surgery, and the reason was that, unlike other hospitals, he did not recommend extra procedures and said he would make me as pretty as possible within the range I wanted, which felt the most trustworthy to me. He is already very well known in facial contouring anyway... Before the consultation I had so many worries, but after the consultation I felt completely sure. 2. Surgery review Right after surgery, my mouth was swollen inside and it was hard, but the toughest part seemed to last about 4 to 5 days? It was a long time ago, so I do not remember exactly. What was amazing was that even though I was puffy from swelling, my family said my face looked smaller. I could tell that the flat parts improved and the asymmetry was corrected, so my face felt much more balanced. As time passed, the swelling gradually went down and my face shape became more balanced. Being able to clearly feel the before-and-after difference is nice. Back when I was stressed, I tried everything from Botox, Ulthera, Shurink, InMode, contour injections, and more, but I regret it... I should have just spent that money on contour surgery from the start. My face has gotten much smaller and the symmetry has improved a lot, and I really notice it, especially in photos. 3. 1-year review My impression after 1 year is that my sensation had fully returned by around 6 months, and I do not really feel sagging or side effects or anything like that. The biggest thing I notice is that the asymmetry has improved a lot. Of course, since it is a human face, the two sides are not perfectly identical, but compared with before, the symmetry was corrected so well that what used to bother me has decreased a lot. I think the director performed the surgery very carefully and well. It is something you should think through carefully, but if you have several worries about your face shape like I did, and you are sure it is bone rather than fat or muscle, then the answer may be facial contouring... It would have been best if I had been pretty without surgery, but it had already become a worry... I am not recommending surgery, but I felt it was a good option, so I wrote this review.
