<After surgery><Before surgery>I decided to get double-jaw surgery because of an appearance complex that had built up over a long time. Since my early 20s, I had always been bothered by my protruding jaw and uneven teeth, and because of that, it became hard to smile in front of people and I started avoiding taking photos, so my personality gradually became more passive. Because of that, people around me often said I looked cold and stiff. Actually, I had thought about surgery once before, but I was scared and the cost burden was big, so I ended up giving up. But even as time passed, the concern continued, and I thought, if I’ve been worrying about it for almost 10 years, doesn’t that mean I really want to do it? So this time, I gathered my courage. I chose the hospital after looking into several places, using as criteria whether they coordinated well with orthodontics and whether I could get a sense of the doctor’s atmosphere to some extent through YouTube or reviews. Then I found Iyoo Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, which had all the conditions I wanted, and after receiving a consultation, I gained trust and proceeded right away. At 1 month, the swelling was severe and sensation was dull, so eating and speaking were not easy. Still, as I recovered day by day and my facial contours slowly started to show, I finally felt that the surgery had been worth it. lol Honestly, it was really hard at first, but I felt like this was just the beginning. Around 3 months, my mouth opened better and sensation returned, so daily life became much more comfortable. It was amazing to see my orthodontic treatment gradually settling into place too. People around me said my impression had become much softer, and when I heard that I looked younger than my age, I felt good for no reason lol After 6 months had passed, the external change felt almost complete, and I had almost no discomfort in daily life. I also stopped the habit of covering my face with my hair, and my expressions became much more natural. Honestly, from around this point, I think I lived forgetting that I had double-jaw surgery. Now I’m at 10 months, and sensation has almost all returned, and my teeth have become much straighter through orthodontics. Every time I look in the mirror, my image has changed so much that my pre-surgery appearance feels unfamiliar, and I’ve gained a lot of confidence. Other than wearing elastics and finishing orthodontics, there’s no particular discomfort, and smiling has become much more natural. Most of all, I think the biggest change is that meeting people has become much more enjoyable than before. Now that 10 months have passed, I have not regretted it even once. Rather, I finally feel like I’m living as myself. If you’re considering double-jaw surgery, instead of struggling with it for a long time like I did, gathering your courage may also be a really good choice.
