I looked into several hospitals and had consultations, but the biggest reason I trusted this place was that I received double-jaw surgery, cheekbone surgery, chin surgery, and square jaw surgery from Director Shin Hee-jin at Yigam Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Because of my Class II malocclusion, I had spent a long time habitually pushing my short lower jaw forward when eating, speaking, and living day to day, and over time this put increasing strain on my temporomandibular joint. In the end, my jaw started making sounds and slipping out repeatedly, and it even got to the point where my jaw would dislocate when I spoke, so I began looking into surgery. The examination results showed that I was a case that needed double-jaw surgery, and my left TMJ disc was already severely displaced and worn down Since I was already deciding on double-jaw surgery, I also wanted to improve my large cheekbones, which had been a lifelong complex, so I decided to have cheekbone surgery, square jaw surgery, and chin surgery at the same time. The reason I chose Yigam Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was that I had known about the hospital through YouTube and cafe reviews even before seriously looking into surgery, and after watching a great many videos and reading many reviews in detail, I had consultations at several hospitals. Compared with the others, the examination process before consultation was extremely professional and detailed. The consultation was based on sufficient testing, and after hearing Director Shin Hee-jin's detailed and easy-to-understand explanation, I could feel the difference from the hospitals I had visited before, so I decided to go ahead with surgery~ It has now been 4 months since surgery, and I am really happy with how things are going^^ I recently met friends I have known for 10 years for the first time after surgery, and they said my facial shape has changed a lot. In particular, they said the jawline that used to be receding has been naturally refined, making my side profile look much prettier, and overall I look softer and my face looks smaller, which made me so happy. More than anything, the change does not feel overly dramatic, but rather naturally improved, so the reactions from people around me are even better. I was worried about having double-jaw surgery together with contouring surgery, but as time passed the swelling went down a lot and I could see my facial line becoming more refined, so I feel like I made the right choice. At this point, most of my facial sensation has returned, so the dull feeling around my mouth and eyes is gone and daily life is not uncomfortable at all. During recovery after surgery, I did have a period when my skin broke out a bit more than before, but I think of it as part of recovery and am taking even better care of it. Overall, I am very satisfied both functionally and aesthetically. If you are worried about malocclusion and TMJ problems, or if you are considering double-jaw surgery together with cheekbone surgery and chin surgery, I recommend Director Shin. Thank you for reading.
