After getting zygoma reduction surgery, square jaw reduction surgery, and anterior chin osteotomy, since they’re big surgeries, I first heard things like it hurts a lot and daily life is uncomfortable, so I was nervous and scared. But once I actually had facial contouring surgery, about 3 days later there was some throbbing, but it hurt less than having a wisdom tooth pulled.. Honestly, not being able to brush my teeth was more distressing and uncomfortable than the pain, but if you have a tongue cleaner, it’s much better! So until I got the stitches removed, I cleaned thoroughly with a tongue cleaner.. lol It was way better than feeling the foreign-body sensation.. lol I ate pumpkin porridge, but I got so sick of it that I alternated between soup and milk. My face was swollen and felt tight, but it wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t sleep all night.
After the stitches were removed, my teeth felt a bit sensitive and there was a tingling feeling, maybe because sensation was coming back, but I definitely liked that the swelling was continuing to go down overall. I was anxious because with the bruising, swelling, and pain, I couldn’t tell whether my face looked natural, and I couldn’t open my mouth either, but all of that turned out to be things that resolve with time.. My jawline is visible now, and it feels like my face shape has completely changed!! I’m moved.. My friends around me also compliment me, saying my face is gradually getting more handsome, so I feel good. While adapting after surgery, my cheekbones throbbed when I ate, but that feeling has lessened too, so it’s more comfortable now. I like that my facial line has become pretty and natural. Since facial contouring surgery is major, my lips looked slightly unnatural when I smiled, but as time passed, my lips and my smile became natural too, so I’m busy showing it off lol Now I’m going to crush my body with home workouts.
