Hello, I am someone who had cheekbone surgery five years ago. To put it briefly, after the surgery, it was not that noticeable and there was no dramatic effect, so I was reasonably satisfied. But if I had to point out a drawback of quick cheekbone reduction, it would be that because it was finished without fixation, I felt over time that the bone was growing back again. So now I am considering revision surgery using fixation pins at another clinic.
First of all, the doctor tended to speak honestly, and the surgery itself was done under sleep anesthesia, so I do not think there was anything particularly difficult. I think recovery was quick too, and from what I remember, the kindness and aftercare service were neither more nor less than ordinary. Maybe because the volume was not reduced much, I have no cheek sagging at all. Still, I think the fact that I did not get the effect I wanted is probably a side effect. I think they said they would shave the 45-degree area too, but honestly, there is so little effect that it would not be wrong to say it is just the same. The cheekbones did seem to go in a little.
