Hello It has been three months since I had surgery at Y Oral & Maxillofacial Clinic! I was concerned about my protruding lower jaw, so while having two-jaw surgery, I also had two facial contouring procedures (square jaw and chin) to improve the length and overall line~ Up until the second month, it felt like time was passing a bit slowly, but suddenly it’s already been three months As the residual swelling goes down, my face is becoming more natural There hasn’t been a huge change in my face compared to the one-month mark, but my facial line looks more refined, so I think I look a bit prettier
Of course, just because I had surgery doesn’t mean I suddenly became an insanely gorgeous goddess lol But even when I look at photos my friends secretly took of me, I don’t look that bad I think the degree of how bad a bad photo looks has changed lolololol No matter how a photo is taken, it doesn’t come out as a face I couldn’t show to other people, should I say? I really feel my self-esteem has gone up a lot, and I like that my mind feels more at ease
- Sensation As for sensation, my upper gums have almost none, and the roof of my mouth is about 30%? The center of my chin has recovered about 70%, and there are no issues elsewhere!
- Eating I can eat chicken really well, munching away But it’s still hard to chew things like chewy snacks or almonds without hesitation If I hold them in my mouth a bit and they get softer, I can crunch them little by little I can chew rice pretty thoroughly too, but it still doesn’t feel like I can chew everything completely
- Swelling Now, when I’m just still, I really don’t think it’s noticeable that I had surgery It feels like I have a little cheek fat? The muscles look much more natural when I smile too But the way my mouth moves when I eat is still a little awkward And personally, I still feel a lot of heaviness when I move my face But from the outside, I don’t think there’s any problem!
- Snoring I thought it might go away as the swelling went down a bit, but I think it has just fully appeared But I don’t think I snore that severely; there are days I snore, days I don’t, days it’s bad, and days it’s mild, something like that So it is a little embarrassing when I sleep around other people, but some people snore anyway, so,, I don’t worry about it much!
- Double chin I also developed a double chin! But honestly, if you dislike even this amount of double chin appearing, I think it’s right not to have the surgery For me, even if I developed some degree of double chin, having my chin brought back was the priority And compared to before, I don’t feel like the double chin is extremely emphasized, so I don’t worry about this either It seems about 1.5 times more visible than my original chin fat But I think this may be because it still feels heavy due to swelling, so it’s hard to conclude yet!
- Nose widening Up until the one-month mark, I think I said it seemed like it had happened a bit Maybe I just got used to this widened nose? I do wonder that, but if I got used to it, I think that means there’s no problem Honestly, when I look straight in the mirror, my nose doesn’t look emphasized at all If my nose looks wrong, it could really look like a pig nose But I really can’t tell any difference from before surgery!
- Sagging skin Before surgery, I worried the most about sagging skin and was so scared But I really can’t tell at all The double chin feels more like an actual double chin rather than sagging skin That drooping feeling? It could be because it’s only been 3 months, but I really don’t see it at all
- Rhinitis After surgery, I thought maybe it had gotten a bit better But although it’s not as bad as before surgery, I think it has gotten worse again,, hehe This seems more like a constitutional issue regardless of the surgery,,,
One thing that’s slightly disappointing is that I wonder if I should have done my cheekbones as the director said,, But I still like my face without having done it, and I don’t think I’ll go out of my way to have cheekbone surgery again! If I had done it, there would have been parts I liked more, but I also think there would have been parts I didn’t like Maybe because I had one major surgery, while looking at my changed face, I kept evaluating things like, should I have done this area too,, now this area stands out, should I do it later,, but as time passes, I think I’m gradually getting used to my face and becoming attached to it Or maybe that was when the swelling was going down in a really odd way! Before, it felt like, I might think differently later, but for now I’m satisfied But now I’m definitely satisfied without any doubts! My confidence has gone up, and I feel confident wherever I go I’m happy because when I dress up, I think I can achieve the vibe I want!!!! I hope you can think about what you want the most and make your decision~!
