My first procedure was around 2016, when I got domestic square-jaw Botox cheaply.
I have a lot of cheek fat on my face, so I was caught up in the fantasy that my face could become slimmer. I just made the appointment and got it without even checking whether it was domestic or imported.
It was my first time at a plastic surgery clinic and my first procedure too, so I was half excited and half worriedㅋㅋ The problem was,, when I went, the consultation felt.. a bit.. lacking?
Even though it was just a petit procedure, I wanted more detailed explanations like imported is better for me, domestic is better, or at this price the dose is small so the effect may be minimal.
But they just asked, “What would you like to get?” gave me a paper, didn’t say anything, and just stared blankly;
In the end, because I felt like I had to decide quickly, I chose while reading the room.. I thought I was going to sweat to death.
Even after going to the consultation room, I sat alone blankly and waited for a long timeㅜㅜ That’s how I got my first Botox.
But the strange thing is, right after getting it, my muscles felt stiff, so it seemed like there was some effect at first.
But about 2 to 3 months after getting it, I felt like my jaw muscles were coming back to life ㅡ,ㅡ;;
Maybe it was because I have a habit of biting my nails,, I used to chew on my nails.
Later I realized they really had come back... Next time I get it, I thought I should not bite my nails and should also check the dosage..
After that, I moved down to a provincial area and got Botox again at a place that is fairly well-known locallyㅠㅠ
Because I was worried I wouldn’t see effects again after getting domestic Botox, I thought I’d rather pay more and get imported Botox so I could see the effect properly.
So I got imported Botox. I also got a dose of 100ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ(They say average people usually get around 50.)
Imported really is much more expensive. Sob.
And because my jaw muscles are truly developed.. even though I had ice packs before getting the injections, it hurt so much;;
It’s been over 4 weeks since I got it, and when I touch the area, my jaw muscles have definitely weakened a lot.
I’m concentrating all my nerves on not biting my nails, and even when I sleep, I’m always conscious of whether I might clench my jaw while sleeping.
My face seems to have gone in, but because I have so much cheek fat, there isn’t a dramatic effect on my broad-looking face.
So now I’m thinking about facial liposuction again... ㅡㅜ
