Since high school, I realized my jaw was longer than other people’s, and that made me start worrying about my appearance. My side profile bothered me whenever I took photos or talked with people, and especially as my wedding approached, the thought of standing in front of many people at the ceremony made me seriously consider changing my appearance. For that reason, I decided to have two-jaw surgery about nine months before the wedding.It has now been seven months since the surgery, and my facial line has settled in almost naturally. Compared with before the surgery, I can clearly feel how different I look. Not only the major swelling but also the residual swelling has gone down a lot, so my face shape has become smaller and smoother, and people I meet after a long time often tell me my face got smaller, which makes me think I really made the right decision to have the surgery.In particular, even friends I meet again for invitation gatherings have said I must have lost a lot of weight or that it looks like I got a lifting procedure on my face. The fact that there is almost no obvious sign of surgery and the change looks so natural is what I’m most satisfied with. My worries about my long jaw and side profile, which used to bother me every time I took photos, have also decreased a lot, and now I feel more confident about my face shape when taking photos or meeting people.More than anything, I’m even more satisfied seeing my face settle in naturally over time after the surgery by Dr. Kim Jong-yun at Iyugukang Maxillofacial Surgery. Right after the surgery, all I could think about was recovering day by day, but now that seven months have passed, the best part is seeing the post-surgery changes continue in such a natural way.There is now about one month left until the main wedding ceremony, and I’m looking forward to being able to wear my dress in my prettiest condition before getting married. Since the time I’ve spent satisfied after the surgery has been much longer than the time I spent worrying about it, I really think deciding to have two-jaw surgery was a very good choice as I prepare for the wedding. I’m hoping that during the remaining recovery period, everything continues to settle in naturally like it has so far.
