I really hope people considering facial contouring surgery will read this

I had 3D cheekbone reduction when I was 20, and I didn’t have side effects like nonunion, but I did develop the unavoidable sagging of the cheeks. Rather than writing a review, I’ll explain what I’ve felt up to now. When cosmetic surgery was really booming, I saw before-and-after facial contouring photos of famous celebrities like Hani, Shin Se-kyung, Suzy, IU, and others circulating on social media, and I decided to have the surgery thinking, “So you really can become this pretty. A lot of celebrities do it too, so it should be okay.” But I’m not lying: after having the surgery, I could see it. The celebrities I mentioned earlier became prettier through weight management, facial massage, and simple procedures, not surgery. Son Na-eun, Kang Min-kyung, Choi Jung-won, Baekhyun, Yoon Kyun-sang, Park Min-young, and others had surgery and have been consistently getting lifting treatments. But in the long term, lifting also makes the skin sag more, so if you look at Choi Jung-won now, even though she has had lifting, it has reached its limit, and you can see that she is sagging more than people her age who have not had lifting. Park Na-rae is a case where she at least did not get additional lifting or fat grafting after shaving down her face, so her cheek sagging did not get worse. Even with Park Na-rae, if you compare her with past photos, her face has definitely become flatter and sagged, making her jaw look angular. The conclusion is: absolutely do not get facial contouring surgery. You can see YouTubers like Han Areum-songi, Jo Hyo-jin, and Ozil Hye looking really pretty after facial contouring without cheek sagging, but cheek sagging will come someday. The principle behind it makes it unavoidable. It seems like they had lifting done together with the surgery, and these days people say they do it without cutting the retaining ligaments and so on, but that only makes cheek sagging come a little less or delays it. Since the skin and muscles have nowhere to go, they can only sag downward, and as you age and skin elasticity decreases, the strength that was barely holding the extra skin and muscles weakens, so it sags faster than other people. What’s important here is that the speed of sagging accelerates. For example, if at first the sagging speed was 1.5 times that of others, as you age and skin elasticity declines, it becomes 2 times, then 3 times. That’s why people can’t stand it and get lifting. Please don’t do it. I hope there will be no more victims like me.
