Now that it's been 4 months, it hardly even feels like I had surgery anymore. It just feels like I'm living with my face. Haha. I had double-jaw surgery plus facial contouring together with Dr. Shin Hee-jin at IYU Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The thing I hear most these days is that my side profile looks prettier. Before, my lower face felt too large and my chin projected so sharply that my face felt kind of masculine, which was stressful... I also had a habit of covering my chin when taking photos, and even in daily life I think I often walked around with my shoulders rounded and my head down for no real reason Looking back, that was surprisingly stressful These days I don't worry about that kind of thing and I just take photos comfortably haha And I really thought I was the type of face that looked terrible in a baseball cap, but lately I've heard quite a few times that hats look fine on me and that my face shape has gotten prettier, so it honestly makes me feel good. In the early period, breathing felt a little stuffy and there was definitely an adjustment period, but after that passed, I've been living almost like usual and eating most foods comfortably! When I first started looking into double-jaw surgery, I was honestly pretty scared, but every time I looked in the mirror I hated the stress from my lower face even more, so I started looking for a hospital. A big reason I decided on IYU Oral was that someone close to me had surgery there too, and their face shape really changed so much and became doll-like and pretty. So after seeing that person myself, I made up my mind to do it there, went for a consultation, and eventually even had surgery with Dr. Shin Hee-jin haha. Now my facial lines feel overall more refined, so I'm living much more comfortably than before. If I could go back, I would absolutely have the surgery here again haha!
