Double-Jaw Surgery Reviews@jaw-review

Male underbite, orthodontic treatment alone wasn’t enough, so I had double-jaw surgery… 7 months post-op

After completing my service as an industrial technical personnel member, I decided to undergo double-jaw surgery, which I had been considering for a long time! To be honest, the stress about my appearance was also significant, but the biggest reason was a functional problem! My lower jaw protruded too much, so my chewing function did not work properly, and because of that I had a lot of discomfort in daily life, such as poor digestion. Like people often say, “If it’s not a jaw like this, who would get double-jaw surgery?” I was the same. Fortunately, thanks to the money I saved through alternative military service, I was able to proceed with double-jaw surgery without financial burden, and because I wanted more specialized and trustworthy care, I chose an oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic rather than a plastic surgery clinic. From about one month after surgery, bloody sputum and pain completely disappeared, and the facial swelling would be okay during the day, but it would swell up again after I slept and woke up. But now my old underbite has been completely corrected, and even just looking at my side profile, I can see such a normal jaw shape, so I felt very satisfied after the surgery. At 2 months post-op, the swelling went down noticeably, my facial line gradually became more natural, and although tough foods were still difficult, the range of foods I could eat widened, so I started gaining weight again haha. Once only the foreign-body sensation at the gum suture sites was resolved, I was almost close to fully recovered. At 3-4 months post-op, almost all the major swelling had gone down, and I had completely adjusted to how I looked in the mirror, so I could not remember my pre-surgery face haha. My impression became much softer and more natural than before surgery, and above all, the functional discomfort disappeared, so my quality of life improved greatly. I think this is probably the most important part. However, my chin fat and cheek fat still feel a little chubby, but compared with before surgery, my condition is a hundred times better, and I am now 7 months post-op! Now I sometimes take comparison photos with before surgery, but other than those times, I forget that I had double-jaw surgery haha. I am so satisfied because Director Shin Hee-jin performed the surgery so naturally!!
