It has already been 3 weeks.
The time when I cried and laughed because of the swelling feels like just yesterday, but now I don’t really pay attention to it anymore.
Around day 5... when I first felt numbness and wrote a review about side effects, "My life is ruined!! F***" "Getting cosmetic surgery was just a total disaster ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ" I was in depression-and-despair mode all day, searching the internet... For days and days by myself, I searched things like "zygoma surgery side effects," "facial contouring side effects," "numbness after zygoma surgery," "cosmetic surgery side effects," etc. I don’t remember now, but I probably did a frantic search with about 300 keywords.
Anyway, to give the conclusion about the parts where I worried about side effects in week 3: My nerves have not fully returned yet. Discomfort still exists, but compared with weeks 1-2, I feel it has improved considerably. Sensation has come back too... The issue is abnormal sensation, but that abnormal sensation has also improved a lot, so now I only notice it a few times before bed when I consciously pay attention to it. Until day 10 after surgery, it kept getting worse, so I was like, "Wow, f***, my life... wow... charcoal briquettes... lighter... oh right, paper to write a will,,,,,,,, Mom, I’m sorry ㅜㅜㅜ," and fell into self-loathing.
After that, it slowly started getting better, and honestly now, when I came to write this review, I don’t pay attention to it to the point of thinking, "Oh right, that happened." I feel sorry for whining to the clinic almost every single day...
I have no pain at all~

Oh, recently I met a friend for the first time in about two weeks, and that friend didn’t know I had surgery. As soon as they saw me, they said, "Why did you gain so much weight?" So I said, "I don’t know, I gained over 10 kg." And left it at that. Around week 3, I guess it just looks like you’ve gained weight in the face.
Just for reference...ㅋㅋ
//
Also... um, what else was there? It’s about swelling.
Once you’re exactly at week 3, it just looks like you’ve gained some weight. The difference in swelling level between daytime and nighttime is still serious, but when I look in the evening after sleep swelling has gone down,
major swelling > medium swelling > fine swelling
It feels exactly between medium swelling and fine swelling... Maybe medium-to-fine swelling? At this point, even if you go out, it seems like you just look like you’ve put on a bit of weight. Even when my family sees me, they don’t particularly pay attention.

What I most wanted to talk about was food.
Pizza Chicken Spicy stir-fried chicken Short rib soup Makchang Gopchang Pork cutlet Sweet and sour pork + jjajangmyeon Pork belly Five-layer pork belly Pork jowl Rib meat Salmon steak Snacks x20
These are all the foods I ate from week 2 to week 3.
GOOD.
Oh, wrapping food in ssam is impossible... Honestly, I haven’t tried, but I think it would be impossible.

Recently, I was trying to fall asleep in bed while watching YouTube before sleeping, and I don’t know if I fell asleep while watching or if my hand slipped, but I dropped my phone... The corner of my phone and my left zygoma did an exact high-five.
The moment I dropped it, my intuition went, "I’m... screwed..." 0.3 seconds later, thud. For the next 0.3 seconds, I frowned and thought, "Ah... it’s going to hurt, right?? It’s going to hurt a lot, right??" "Surely something won’t go wrong?" "Ah, damn ㅡㅡ why did I drop my phone ㅡㅡ" I had all kinds of thoughts and imagined every possible thing,
then about 1 second later I came to my senses and thought, "It doesn’t hurt as much as I expected? What?!" And after a little while, I slept.
// Around week 3, I have no idea what to write, or what people interested in the zygoma area would be curious about at week 3. I really have no clue hahaha... Please leave a comment about anything you’re curious about! From now on, I’ll answer sincerely and thoroughly!!
Oh, and about clinic information. It’s not like I’m two or three months out yet... I don’t know the results for sure, and I haven’t received all the post-procedure care yet... So I think it’s meaningless for me to evaluate the clinic itself...
Once I’m exactly 2 months out, I’m going to reveal photos! I’ll cover my eyes and nose, but... I’ll show the full line. Still, I think it would be better to explain everything about zygoma surgery before and after surgery with photos... After I reveal the photos, I’ll tell those who want clinic information.
P.S. Of course, if I like my clinic...
