Before surgery, I kept wishing that my face would look a little smaller in every photo, especially that my lower-face line would become prettier and softer. After deliberating for a long time, I decided to undergo aesthetic double-jaw surgery. Since double-jaw surgery is major, I worried a lot and was scared before deciding. Still, I was sure of the look I wanted, and after 충분히 considering it through consultations, I had surgery at [Clinic A]. Around two months, I could eat somewhat hard foods without major problems as long as I was careful. Seeing the major swelling go down made me very happy. I kept hoping the candy-like swelling would disappear faster, and I was thrilled whenever people around me said my face looked smaller. My function and bite were completely normal, so I just relaxed and waited for my face to shrink away. I had originally considered philtrum shortening after aesthetic double-jaw surgery because I was slightly concerned about how much of my upper teeth showed. But as I watched the swelling decrease, I started thinking it might be fine to live as I am, so I decided to keep watching how my face settles before deciding. By about five months, I felt my facial contours were gradually settling properly. Compared with last month, the swelling had decreased a little more, and since it is said to continue decreasing for up to a year, I was excited to see how much more refined it would become. I also wanted to have the fixation pins removed soon. The most amazing thing was that friends I had not seen in a long time could not recognize me right away. I wondered whether one double-jaw surgery could really change my impression that much, and it was fascinating. It does not look obviously surgical; my face is smaller and my lower face is more refined, but the change feels very natural, which I like most. I am satisfied that it is aesthetic double-jaw surgery without looking artificial ><!! Time seemed not to move at all until two months, and now it is already six months, which is amazing. I can now crunch ice and eat frozen jelly ^..^ haha. Since I look at my face in the mirror every day, I cannot tell how much the swelling has gone down, but before, residual swelling was subtly visible in camera photos. These days it is barely visible even in photos and on camera, which makes me so happy. Before surgery, all I wanted was for my face to become just a little smaller and for the lower-face line to look naturally prettier. Now it seems to be settling exactly in the direction I hoped for, so I am truly satisfied. Rather than changing too much by wanting more and more, I like that it has been naturally refined from my own face. I worried a lot before deciding because it was major surgery, but I feel I made the right choice trusting [Clinic A]. It is exciting to see my face become more natural as the swelling goes down.
