Double-Jaw Surgery Reviews

A real review of how getting double jaw surgery turned taking great photos into everyday life

Hello! 😊 It has been 8 months since I had double jaw surgery from Dr. Shin Hee-jin at I U Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery! I used to have a bit of an underbite and facial asymmetry, so I had a strong complex about my appearance, and I would almost avoid photos taken by other people and gradually stop taking selfies too. Every time I looked in the mirror, I only saw my flaws, so I decided to get double jaw surgery because I wanted to improve things before it got any later~! I consulted at two hospitals, but compared with the other one, Dr. Shin Hee-jin at I U Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery examined my condition much more carefully and explained things realistically while considering both my facial shape and bite, which impressed me the most. In particular, unlike another hospital that said only IVRO was possible, he explained that SSRO would also be fully possible, which made me trust that I could expect both functional improvement and facial shape improvement, and I naturally decided to have the surgery! After half a year, the swelling was almost completely gone, with only a little residual swelling that I could personally feel, so there was no inconvenience in daily life and no special side effects. Before, I especially avoided taking side-view photos, but now that is the biggest change for me. I can take photos naturally with my friends, and as my face became more balanced, I often hear that my overall impression has become softer. Now at 8 months, unless I tell people first, they cannot tell I had surgery haha ✨ My face looks smaller overall and my lips sit further back, so my proportions feel more balanced, and I am quite satisfied. My nostrils do feel a little rounder, but that is also part of the change as my whole face has become more balanced, and it gets even more natural with time so it is fine! Compared with the time I spent worrying about double jaw surgery, life is now much more comfortable functionally too, and the stress I had about my appearance has really decreased, so personally I am extremely satisfied!!! 😊 😊
