I am a patient who had double jaw surgery from Director Shin Hee-jin at Iyu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery! Ever since I was little, my underbite was a complex for me. Looking at people from the front was fine, but the moment they saw me from the side, it felt like they were looking only at my chin, not my face, so I was always self-conscious. Even when taking photos, I would cover my chin or try not to show my side profile T_T So I started orthodontic treatment. At first, when my chin moved in a little, I even gained some confidence and thought maybe it was getting better. But as time passed, it started feeling like my chin was growing back, and my underbite looked like it used to, so I realized braces alone would not be enough and began looking into double jaw surgery! Before surgery, I looked up quite a few good hospitals for double jaw surgery. What really made me trust Iyu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was that they only perform one surgery per day and they disclose CCTV from the operating room. The before-and-after results also felt like the kind of natural facial refinement I had in mind, so after the consultation I decided to have surgery with Director Shin Hee-jin! It has now been 7 months since my double jaw surgery, and once the swelling mostly settled, people around me have been saying things like I look prettier and my face got smaller, so I have been feeling ridiculously happy lol. Before, I felt a bit insecure if I did not wear makeup, but these days the biggest change is that I can just go out comfortably with a bare face! I am still being a little careful with very hard foods, but my regular meals are no problem at all, and my sensation has come back to about 98 percent, so sometimes I even forget that I had double jaw surgery lol. I had been stressed about my side profile for so long that now I feel much more comfortable taking photos, and the most satisfying part is how my facial shape has been refined lol. If you are thinking about double jaw surgery, I think you may also feel the same kind of improvement in both function and facial line that I did!!
