My lower face used to bother me so much whenever I took photos because my jaw looked long, and it was really stressful. So I eventually decided to have surgery, and I chose an oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic because it had the best aftercare and reviews, and because the director's aesthetic sense suited me well. Now, one month after surgery, the eating restriction is finally lifted! I tried having lunch for the first time in a month, and it was so moving T_T The director told me the swelling has gone down a lot and that my recovery is going well, which put my mind at ease. That said, the orthodontic department said my right teeth are not biting together well, so I have to keep wearing rubber bands for two more weeks. To be honest, that was a little upsetting, but I'm still going to keep wearing them diligently every day and focus on recovery. Over the past month, my energy has come back a lot, and I've almost returned to normal daily life. Walking, light exercise, and eating soft foods are all going fine, and I'm satisfied because my face and jawline have visibly slimmed down. The swelling and bruising have not completely disappeared yet, but they are much more natural than before, and I can feel myself gradually adapting to everyday life and recovering. If you're thinking about surgery, I think choosing an oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic and Director Kim Jong-yun, whose aesthetic sense matches yours and who provides solid aftercare, can be a big help during recovery as well. Going forward, I plan to keep up with palate exercises and meal management steadily, and I look forward to the day I fully recover.
