I am still in the recovery phase, but I wanted to leave a record, so I am writing my 1-month review. I had 3-type contouring surgery with Dr. Kim Jong-yoon at Iyu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Before surgery, my protruding cheekbones and jawline were what bothered me most whenever I smiled or talked. Especially when taking photos or meeting people, I was often told that my face looked strong because of the asymmetry of my cheekbones and the protruding look, and I even became conscious of smiling naturally. More than simply wanting to look prettier, I wanted to comfortably improve the part of my face that had caused me the most stress for the longest time. When choosing the hospital, because this was surgery rather than a procedure, I thought safety and expertise were more important than flashy advertising. Since one surgery cannot be undone, I looked into it carefully, and after trusting Iyu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Dr. Kim Jong-yoon, I decided to have the operation. I am now one month out from the 3-type contouring surgery. My jaw still feels stiff and swelling-related discomfort remains, but the frequency of pain is gradually decreasing, so I can feel that recovery is going well. Most of the bruising has faded and is hardly noticeable except around the left cheekbone and around the mouth, and it is much better than at the beginning. Swelling is still present, so the left eyelid area, inside the nose, and inside the mouth can still feel uncomfortable at times, but compared with right after surgery, things are gradually settling. In particular, I can slowly start to see the facial line becoming more refined, so I am looking forward to how it will look once the swelling goes down further. Sensation on the right side feels about 80% recovered, while on the left side the jaw, cheek, and area around the cheekbone still feel somewhat numb. But considering that it has only been a month, I feel like I am still in the process of recovering little by little. As for eating, anything harder than rice is still a burden, but bread, soft foods, protein drinks, milk, and pumpkin juice are all fine. For aftercare, I have also been walking consistently for 30 minutes or more, 4 to 5 times a week, and my physical condition seems to be improving little by little. My skin condition goes up and down, and it is still a bit awkward to take off my mask, but overall I am recovering with satisfaction. More than anything, the cheekbone asymmetry and protruding facial line that stressed me out the most before surgery are showing signs of improvement, which is what I am happiest about. It is still only the one-month mark, so it is too early to talk about the final result, but thinking about why I wanted contouring surgery in the first place, even the changes so far have made me feel positive, and I am looking forward to the recovery process ahead ^^
