Hehe hi, I can’t believe 8 months have already passed.. It feels like just yesterday that I posted my 1-week update lol The photos are unedited photos. Even before surgery, my face didn’t protrude severely or anything, but in photos my face looked flat, and I had some asymmetry, so I was stressed and got it done!
I had it done at ㄴㅌ. In my previous post, I deliberately didn’t mention it because I was worried I might look like an ad or a broker, and also because side effects could possibly show up later.. But now I’m satisfied, so I’m just saying it~ I had consultations at about 8 places, and this place felt the most trustworthy. If you visit several hospitals, you start to get a feel for them. Of course, you shouldn’t decide based only on feeling, but you can’t ignore it either. If something feels off, it’s best to rule it out no matter what. Absolutely don’t do it at a place that’s much cheaper than other hospitals (excluding cases where the hospital offers conditions). I almost did that, and I’m glad I didn’t!
As for side effects, decreased sensation in the lower lip? But it doesn’t interfere with daily life, and they said it comes back with time, so I’m just living with it lol There are many more serious side effects, so I recommend not only looking at successful surgery reviews, but also reading lots of reviews from people who had side effects and searching a lot about hospitals too!
Looking back now, it’s a surgery I’m very satisfied with, but if I were told to do it again, I think I’d have to think about it a bit. Why.. For a week, it was so, so hard, and the swelling took quite a long time to go down too (I think it’s still going down). There’s absolutely no way you can rest for just one week and go back to work. It’s hard to eat, and your face is extremely swollen too.. lol After about a month, daily life became somewhat possible. For a month, I couldn’t drink alcohol and couldn’t blow my nose.. lol I’m not sure whether the chin liposuction had an effect. I think it’s mostly because I didn’t manage it well! But I recommend doing it together.
The good points are obvious, but I became more confident when taking photos or videos. (I was told I looked like Karina, which I had never heard before... and twice at that... seriously.. I think it’s because of my face shape.) People I’m close to and meet often have no idea I had facial contouring! They did it so naturally lol And I showed them photos of Go Youn-jung. If I think of it again later, I’ll come back to write a 1-year review!! If you have any questions, leave a comment :)
