It has been 2 weeks since I had 2 types of facial contouring (chin tip, square jaw) at Jeonhu Note Plastic Surgery. I decided to have the surgery because my lower face was long and the asymmetry bothered me, so I felt scared whenever I saw a camera, and I thought it might help somewhat with my low self-esteem.
Although it has only been 2 weeks since the surgery, I personally am really satisfied! The director said many times that it was unfortunate because my nerve line was low… but even taking that into account, I think the length was reduced more than I expected, and although there is swelling, my facial line looks more refined, so the asymmetry has improved a lot too!
I was also very surprised that there was less difficulty than I expected after the surgery. There wasn’t anywhere that particularly hurt, so my most painful memory was probably when the tape was removed from my chin in week 1? I was really scared when getting the stitches removed too, but it wasn’t that painful
For meals, during the first week I think I ate things like tofu, soy milk, and ice cream as a snack, and from week 1 onward I mainly ate soft bread with milk and porridge. At first I wondered how I would get through a week eating only things like tofu… but after the surgery, I just didn’t have an appetite? I think it just passed by smoothly.
Seeing the swelling gradually go down makes me look forward to what’s ahead even more! I’m staying safe, taking good care of myself, and imagining a bright future!!
