Male, 4-Month Review After Spending Quite a Bit of Time Researching Jaw Surgery

I had been stressed about my malocclusion and lower face since I was young, and after making a big decision, I underwent double-jaw surgery with Dr. Kim Jongyoon at I-Yu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. I had already looked into whether orthodontic treatment alone could fix it, but in my case I was told that braces alone would not solve the root problem and that double-jaw surgery was necessary for skeletal improvement. Since it was such a major surgery, I had a lot of worries, but rather than keep obsessing over it, I decided to get proper treatment. When choosing a hospital, I did not decide after looking at just one place; I went around to several clinics myself and had consultations. What I remember most from my consultation at I-Yu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was that Director Kim Jongyoon explained in detail, step by step, how the surgery would be performed based on my skeletal structure and bite condition, and what the process would look like! It gave me trust because he did not just say nice things, but explained my condition objectively based on my own case, so after much deliberation, I decided to have the surgery there. I’m now 4 months post-op, and the remaining swelling has almost completely gone, so I’m living with satisfaction haha This was something I had worried about for a long time since childhood, so deciding on surgery was not easy, but up to now my recovery has been going well and I’ve been able to go about daily life comfortably!
