<Before surgery><Before surgery><After surgery><After surgery>Hello I had been stressed for a long time because of my cheekbones protruding sideways. In particular, the area beside my eyes looked wide, so my face looked wider and flatter, and I also had hollow cheeks, so my facial contour felt uneven. More than from the front, especially when seen from a diagonal angle, my 45-degree cheekbones stood out so much that I was reluctant to take photos. My face was originally on the short and wide side, and my cheekbones made it look even wider, so I always covered them with my hair. That was really stressful. I found out about the clinic while looking at an app event, and honestly, the price was the biggest reason I chose it. Still, the fact that it was a one-doctor clinic specializing in facial contouring, and that an anesthesiology director was on-site, made me trust them. They also had CCTV installed, so that reduced my anxiety about the surgical process. Personally, I tend to feel hesitant about large hospitals, but because this was a one-doctor clinic, I actually trusted it more. At Yungwakui Jeongseok, when I had my consultation, the staff were kind, and when I asked the director questions, he explained things in detail, so I developed a basic level of trust. He explained everything I asked about without leaving anything out, and also guided me through the surgical method in a way that was easy to understand. After surgery, I’m so satisfied every time I look in the mirror. Before, I disliked taking photos, but now I want to take photos confidently. In person, people also say things like, “Your face looks smaller,” and “Did you lose weight?” Before, my cheekbones stood out especially in photos, so I was often shocked by photos other people took of me, but now that part has definitely improved. When I wash my face, the face shape I feel with my hands is completely different, so I’m surprised every time. Before, because of my cheekbones, I couldn’t even apply blush prettily, but now I enjoy applying blush. I do feel like my smile has changed a little; before, it was a smile that used the cheekbone muscles a lot, so the corners of my mouth lifted sharply upward, but now it feels like the corners of my mouth spread more sideways? It doesn’t look strange, and actually looks more natural, so I like it. On the first day, there wasn’t much swelling, so I could immediately feel that my cheekbones had been reduced to the point that I wondered, “Is this the final result?” But from the second day, I started swelling, and on the third day, I really laughed every time I looked in the mirror lol. Even so, I wore a hat and mask and went out just fine. From the third day, the swelling started going down quickly, to the point that my face looked different in the morning and evening. From one week post-op, I went around without a mask, and I was already satisfied from then. When I went to the clinic at week 2, they said more swelling would go down, so I’m looking forward to my future face. Maybe because I also had deep cheek fat removal done together, there is still swelling in the deep cheek area, so my cheeks feel slightly plump, but I don’t really care much. Right after surgery, I had no sensation under my eyes and around my upper lip, but my upper lip has almost fully returned, and there is still a little remaining under my eyes. The clinic said it would take 2 weeks to 1 month, so I guess I’m on the slower side. It’s not uncomfortable, just something I’m subtly aware of when I touch it? Anyway, I’m satisfied!!
