Before-after-before-after hellooo ( ´ ▽ `) I'm coming up on 3 weeks after getting one type of facial contouring, cheekbone reduction, at The Contouring Standard
First, among many clinics, the reason I chose The Contouring Standard was that when I went for my first consultation, the consultant treated me very comfortably, and Director Oh Jungseok also explained in detail what direction the surgery would take, which really resonated with me! In my case, my cheekbones were not severely prominent, but whenever I looked in the mirror I kept noticing them, so I decided to have surgery
On the day of surgery, I fasted starting 8 hours before and went into surgery Before surgery, I met the consultant and director once more, heard the precautions, and was able to ask everything I was curious about!
When I entered the operating room, the anesthesiologist was there on-site, so I wasn't that nervous And as soon as I breathed in the anesthetic gas, I had no memory and was just in the recovery room Afterward, I was out of it, and because of the anesthetic gas I felt a bit dizzy and nauseated, and except for a slight dull ache around the cheekbones, everything was okay
I was so out of it that I moved around here and there, but the consultant and the operating room nurses took care of me, so it was at least bearable My memories are patchy, and all I remember is the director coming in and giving a thumbs-up, saying the surgery went very well…
After I came to my senses somewhat in the recovery room, about 2 hours later? I came home For about two days, the throbbing feeling and anesthetic gas made things hard, but maybe because I took my medicine well, after about two days? the pain completely went away
More than anything else, I was supposed to eat a liquid diet for about a week, but that was so~ hard for me that from day 5 I ate regular food… hehe Of course not hard foods or tough meat, but I ate soup, rice, and side dishes. I couldn't open my mouth super wide, but it wasn't particularly difficult
At week 1, I went to have the sideburn stitches removed and asked the director everything I was curious about, and at week 2 I had the stitches inside my mouth removed. Both were removed well without pain, so I was really happy
Swelling probably varies by person, but for me, after about a week, aside from candy-like swelling, there wasn't enough swelling to interfere with daily life Now I'm eating freely to some extent while still being careful
The director reduced them elegantly without overdoing it, so both my 45-degree and lateral cheekbones went completely inward! My features look more defined too, and I'm so satisfied Thank you once again for making the surgery turn out so pretty
