Hello~ I only had cheekbone surgery. People say cheekbone surgery is the surgery with the most side effects. But I couldn’t find anyone in this community who had written a 2-year post-op review. Maybe I just didn’t find one...ㅠㅠ So I’ll leave one myself :)
First of all, as you can see in my pre-op photos, my only concern was my cheekbones. I didn’t want my lower face to become any slimmer, and I wanted only the cheekbones on my face to become smaller.
Everyone has different criteria for choosing a clinic, but I only looked for single-surgeon clinics and went for consultations there. The reason was that at a single-surgeon clinic, there would be no shadow doctor, and one chief director would perform the surgery, so I felt reassured. Also, since the doctor works alone, they can’t schedule too many surgeries, so I thought they would be able to focus more on me.
The reasons I chose the clinic where I had surgery were: 1. A private clinic 2. They perform only exactly 2 surgeries per day, 1 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon 3. They don’t excessively recommend this and that, and only recommend what is necessary 4. The director performs customized surgery according to the style I want, not according to the director’s own preferred personal style 5. No accident history 6. Whether the doctor had specialized only in facial contouring surgery 7. There were many review photos of surgical results that I liked
For these reasons, I chose my current clinic, and as a result of choosing that carefully, I’m living very satisfied with my surgical results. Whenever I took photos, I used to be busy Photoshopping my cheekbones, but honestly, I don’t do that now. Unless a photo occasionally comes out looking too bulky, I hardly do it anymore.
When I was getting cheekbone surgery, I looked up so much information, reviews, side effects, etc. on YouTube, community sites, apps, and so on. People said cheekbone surgery is especially known for having many side effects. They say that if the surgery is done well, side effects almost never appear, but I was really worried. Honestly, surgical side effects could happen to me too.
Taking this into account, I chose my clinic very carefully, so I wanted to stop stressing over it. I trusted the director and had the surgery. I remember repeatedly telling the director on the day of surgery to please take really good care of me haha
It has now been about 2 years since my surgery, and fortunately, no surgical side effects have appeared yet. Cheek sagging * bone nonunion * noises coming from the cheekbones These things have not appeared in me so far. I think I also saw someone say that even though they had surgery, their face seemed to be gradually getting wider and flatter. That has not appeared in me so far either. I’m currently very satisfied with my condition. I do think it’s true that if the surgery is done well, there are almost no side effects. Recently, I had another CT scan, and the director said there was no problem.
Currently, for maintenance, I’m only getting Shurink treatment on my whole face at the clinic where I had surgery.
After cheekbone surgery, I haven’t been eating things like squid legs or makchang that are hard or tough, or foods that require a lot of muscle force when eating. It’s to prevent the muscles from getting bigger!
And what I definitely felt is that bone surgery really seems to have a dramatic effect. I’m so happy I’m no longer stressed over it. Everyone, become prettier ♥
If you leave any questions in the comments, it may be hard for me to check right away, but I’ll still try to reply quickly haha
