It’s day 2 after revision cheekbone surgery + midface lift. I feel like I’m going to die... It’s the most painful and difficult surgery I’ve ever had. What’s hard about it is, first of all, the pain is so severe ㅠㅠ I’ve had my eyes, nose, and jaw all done, but this feels like my whole face is throbbing and torn apart. I don’t know if this is because of the cheekbone surgery or the lift, but it hurts so much. And I’m naturally the type to bruise and swell badly, but the bruising and swelling are truly the worst ever. My face literally feels like it’s going to burst;;;;; The consultant says it’s okay, but I’m worried whether this is really okay. Even the inside of my mouth is so swollen that it feels like there’s almost no space inside my mouth. Even before surgery I went in feeling so worried and scared, but it’s even more, more, more painful than I worried it would be... I’m in my 30s now, so I wonder if recovery is different from when I was in my 20s. Since I had general anesthesia, my throat hurts so much because of the intubation, and even though it’s day 2, my throat still hurts, so I keep eating ice cream frequently. Yesterday I felt really nauseous and dizzy, but today the dizziness and nausea have improved a lot. If there’s anyone who wants to do cheekbone surgery + lift together like me... I hope you know it’s this hard before doing it ㅠㅠ I wanted to get everything done at once, so I did them together, but it really is hard. Time won’t pass, so here I am coming into this community and writing a review...
