I Found the Face Shape I Never Could Have Imagined Before Surgery at Yi Clinic

To resolve the malocclusion I had struggled with for a long time, I had double jaw surgery with Dr. Shin Hee-jin at Yi Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and it has already been 2 months since the operation! Since childhood, my malocclusion and underbite have been a complex of mine because of my long face and facial asymmetry, and my teeth were also misaligned, so eating was uncomfortable every time. I was also stressed in functional ways to the point that people around me often commented that my pronunciation was nasal. I started orthodontic treatment early, so my teeth became fairly aligned, but I learned that the malocclusion itself is a case that is difficult to resolve with orthodontics alone. So after much deliberation, I decided to have double jaw surgery because I wanted to improve both the functional discomfort and my appearance-related complex. The reason I chose Yi Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was that I often heard from people around me that malocclusion surgery is functional treatment rather than cosmetic surgery, so it is better to have it done at an oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic! While looking up actual surgery cases from different hospitals, I came across reviews from Yi Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery patients, and the changes in cases similar to mine, with malocclusion and an underbite, were what I liked most. Then after visiting for a consultation myself, they carefully analyzed my current face and bite condition through detailed examinations, and because they explained the surgical process and the expected changes in an easy-to-understand way, I felt confident. Because I cared most about achieving a natural result, I became convinced this was the hospital that suited me best, so I decided to have the surgery!! Now that it’s been 2 months, I still have a bit of residual swelling around the chin tip and mouth area, so I sometimes feel a slight tightness, but it keeps getting better over time, so it doesn’t bother me much! I’m able to go about daily life without major discomfort, and I’m satisfied that my face line has been organized much more naturally than before. People around me also keep telling me my face has become smaller and that my overall impression looks so much better. I can comfortably eat most foods, including meat, and I’m only avoiding very chewy foods when necessary. My condition has also stabilized a lot to the point that I can do light exercise, and as the swelling goes down over time, my facial line is becoming a little more natural, so I’m even more excited about the changes ahead:) Thank you for reading
