I had been worrying for years about my long face shape and the hollowing beside my nose, and I tried various procedures, but there was nothing that noticeably improved itㅠㅠ So in the end I made a big decision and chose double-jaw surgery. I chose Iyoo Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery without hesitation. A close acquaintance had surgery there and their impression really changed dramaticallyㅎ After seeing them in person, I gained trust, so I also decided without hesitation!! The day before surgery, I was nervous and had a lot on my mind, so I couldn’t sleep well. But once the surgery actually happened, it was over much faster than I expected, and even after waking from anesthesia, the pain surprisingly wasn’t severe. However, my swelling really rose a lot. I’m already the type who swells easily, but this time it was rather severe. On the first day, even drinking water was hard, and my stamina was so depleted that even going to the bathroom was overwhelming. Because of mouth breathing, my mouth got dry, and I couldn’t sleep properly at night, so I kept waking up.. It felt a little hopeless, but from the next day, breathing definitely became a little easier, and New Care and water also started going down slowly and well. I also received swelling laser treatment, and the nurses kept caring for me attentively, so during hospitalization I was still able to stay with a sense of stability. After discharge, I’m recovering while taking medication, but the powdered medicine was so bitter that taking it was a bit hard. I also got tired of New Care, so I could barely drink it. So I looked at reviews and barely got through it by using tips like mixing it with Yakult or Pocari. I also tried to walk consistently to reduce swelling. When I walk, I can definitely feel the swelling go down a bit, but my body still hasn’t fully recovered, so even moving a little makes me dizzy and my head feels foggy. I also had frequent headaches, so I relied a lot on medicationㅠ As time passed, the swelling has been gradually going down, but swelling remains asymmetrically on both sides of my face, so I end up looking in the mirror every day. When the stitches were removed, I was nervous because I thought it might hurt, but it ended cleanly with no pain at all, and after that the tight pulling inside my mouth also disappeared, so it became much more comfortableㅎㅎ Now I only wear the wafer when sleeping, and brushing with regular toothpaste is possible, but sensation still hasn’t fully returned, so it feels a bit foreign. After about a month, the swelling is severe in the morning and settles down around evening, and that keeps repeating. The location of the swelling is different every day, and the speed that swelling goes down on each side of the face is different, so I do keep paying attention to it, but I’m managing it well by taking swelling medication and pumpkin juice. Overall, right after surgery there were many moments that felt overwhelming, but as time passes, it is gradually becoming livable, and I am very satisfied with the results^^ If there are people considering surgery, I think it is definitely !!! worth considering~!
