It has been 8 months since I had double jaw surgery with Director Shin Hee-jin at Iyuu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery! The reason I decided to have surgery was a long-standing complex caused by the teasing I received since childhood because of my malocclusion and underbite T_T I did get orthodontic treatment in high school, but even then I was told that orthodontics alone had its limits and that double jaw surgery was the fundamental solution. At that time, though, surgery felt too scary and the burden was too great, so I chose to go with orthodontics in the hope that it would at least improve things a little..!! However, even after the orthodontic treatment ended, my lower face still looked long and my chin still seemed protruded, and that did not change much. Every time I took photos, I kept covering my chin and worrying about my side profile, and the stress continued T_T If I could not wear my retainer even briefly, I would become so sensitive that I would worry about it all day, and seeing myself like that made me think I needed a fundamental solution. I consulted several places to see whether chin surgery alone could solve it, but most places explained that in cases with malocclusion, double jaw surgery was the most certain method, so I ended up getting consultations for double jaw surgery as well!! After visiting several hospitals, the reason I chose Iyuu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was that Director Shin Hee-jin explained my condition accurately without exaggeration and only talked about the surgery I truly needed right now, which made me trust them. Rather than recommending surgery unconditionally, they calmly explained why this surgery was necessary and what changes would be possible afterward, which put me at ease. Above all, the fact that they value a natural face shape also matched the direction I wanted!! Also, because they have a system where dental treatment and orthodontic management can be received together, it felt more stable when thinking about the period after surgery, and since it is double jaw surgery, I became convinced that choosing a specialized oral and maxillofacial surgery hospital rather than a plastic surgery clinic was the right choice, so I decided to have the surgery!! It has now been 8 months since the surgery, and honestly there are almost no inconveniences in daily life. The double-chin feeling that bothered me most has also been greatly reduced, so my facial line looks much lighter!! When I recently checked with CT at the hospital, they said the bones were healing well, which put my mind at ease. There is still a very slight swollen look around the philtrum when I smile, but since it has not yet been a full year since surgery, it may still be residual swelling, and no one around me can tell, so I think it will become even more natural with time haha Most of all, I have gained so much more confidence when taking photos! I also hear more often that my face looks smaller, so I feel really glad I decided to have surgery with Director Shin Hee-jin, and I gently recommend it to anyone with the same concerns!
