No, not just words — I really went all-in and emptied my whole money. I took the severance from leaving my old job and the savings I’d put aside. I did 3-step contouring and got a complete full-face setup..ㅋㅋ My wallet situation got poor, but I have absolutely no regret, really. This was also a contour surgery I had dreamed about my whole life, and the result came out exactly how I wanted, exactly to my taste… The pre-op photos taken at the hospital are a bit embarrassing, but I feel they were totally raw photos with no touch-ups at all, so...ㅋㅋㅋ
Even when I looked at myself alone in the mirror, I knew there was facial asymmetry. But when you look at the photos taken during consultations at the hospital, it’s a huge reality check. “Did I really look like this? We just met, and who are you?” kind of shock. Plus, when I was going to consultations, I ate poorly and my skin got totally messed up, so my appearance obsession might have gotten even stronger. The cheekbones bothered me the most, so at first I only wanted to do cheekbones. Because of human greed, as they say..^^ㅋ once I started, I thought, maybe I should trim more. From reading reviews, it seemed that contouring looked prettier when done in a more decorative “doll-line” style, and it made you look more glamorous (not a recommendation, just my own taste ㅇㅇ). In the end I ended the consultation planning for 3-step contouring. My face is naturally a bit bumpy and round... I think I probably paid special attention to clinics that intentionally go for a more glamorous look. I’d already decided to spend all my money on this contouring, and if I’d done it naturally and nobody could even notice it around me, I felt like it would be unfair. Anyway, I wanted to slim the cheekbones and make the lower jaw softer... I wanted an influencer-like look. Every clinic also recommended contouring 3-step, and I chose the clinic after considering cost, side effects, swelling, and bleeding.
I live by myself, and I never told my mom about it. Since they said one guardian can do real-time monitoring, I basically forced my boyfriend to sit and monitor me (half-voluntarily). After surgery, honestly, saying I didn’t feel pain would be a lie. Because I’m still quite young, recovery seemed faster than usual. Even the clinic said for this level it was a pretty fast recovery..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ This was truly a lucky one, right?…ㅎ Anyway, my surgery was also finished quickly. I don’t know if it’s linked to operation time, but because bleeding was low, it seemed like there was hardly any swelling from contouring either? They said things like pumpkin tea are not really effective for reducing swelling, so I thought, “just stick to basics,” and just went for walks.
After surgery my overall vibe became softer and more delicate in a good way, and most of all, because my face shape is now tidier, I really enjoy taking selfies again.... But my mom is definitely my mom... As soon as she saw me, she immediately said, “What did you do to your face?” and thought I had injections. I still don’t plan to remove the pins yet, and right now I can put two to three fingers in my mouth. I checked the CT too; even though I’m not knowledgeable about this stuff, it looked nicely and cleanly shaved. What I like the most is that the asymmetry is corrected..ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
