Since contouring is such a major surgery, I was very strict about checking safety and the doctor's experience. Because every clinic has different goals, I deliberated a lot until booking surgery. I thought [Clinic A] was safe because an anesthesiologist is always present and they insist on general anesthesia for contouring surgery. It is also mentioned so often for doll-like lines that I absolutely included it on my shortlist. I have some soft tissue and facial asymmetry. Anyway, I would have been grateful if I could get my preferred doll-like line plus symmetry. The doctor is not particularly flashy with words, but answers honestly and explains even possible side effects, lol. After telling the doctor everything I was worried about, the plan was three-part facial contouring with cortical shaving, plus soft-tissue contouring of the deep cheek fat. At first I only planned contouring, but the eye-surgery reviews kept catching my attention, lol. TMI: I had buried-suture double-eyelid surgery before, but one side loosened and I developed uneven eyes. Then I saw [Clinic A]'s eye-surgery reviews, with glamorous yet natural in-out lines, exactly my taste. I thought that if contouring refined my facial shape, the harmony with my eyes would improve too, so I went ahead with revision eye surgery as well and negotiated a little more. I liked that two doctors specialize separately in contouring and eyes. I booked the first surgery slot in the morning, had my eyes done first, then contouring. Around two weeks after surgery, the follow-up CT showed that the asymmetrical lines had been neatly refined, so I was simply thrilled. They also included chin surgery and platysma tightening under the chin as a complimentary service, so even now at four months I have no turkey neck. My eyes were done with buried sutures, but there was little swelling or bruising. People who saw me after a long time did not even realize I had redone my eyes, lol; they just thought my makeup had changed. That is how well my eyes turned out!!!! ✌🏻✌🏻 The contouring swelling still fluctuates, but I like my face shape on days when the swelling is down. I am managing it by alternating different products such as Danggui-Su-San, Venosine, and Trypsin.
