Cheekbone Surgery Reviews

From facial contouring consultation to ~ 1-week post-contouring review

**Facial contouring consultation My criteria for choosing a hospital 1. The director has over 20 years of experience 2. An anesthesiology director is on-site 3. How the surgery and postoperative care are handled 4. Whether hospitalization is required and what the hospital room is like 5. Whether there is no overtreatment I set these as my criteria. Since it was bone surgery, not just anything else, I thought the risk was too high to look only at the cost, and the place I chose based on prioritizing the above conditions over price was Glam Plastic Surgery. My concerns 1. Broad-looking lower face + a contoured/uneven feeling from a square jaw to the chin tip 2. My anterior cheekbones that seemed to stand out whenever I smiled or took photos 3. Plump-looking cheek fat + double chin After consulting with the consultant, I had a consultation with the director. While looking at my CT, he explained medical aspects in an easy-to-understand way, such as the nerve lines in my face, asymmetrical areas, and how my facial structure was the kind that inevitably creates a double chin. Seeing that he said my anterior cheekbones were developed but that there was no real need to do my lateral cheekbones, I also really liked that there was no overtreatment. After hearing that the anesthesiology director is always on-site, I chose the hospital based on the directors. **Facial contouring surgery The operating room itself was very clean, and the nurses and staff treated me very kindly. The anesthesiology director reassured me, and after general anesthesia, the surgery proceeded. I had facial contouring surgery + double chin treatment, but it did not take extremely long and finished quickly. And I also woke up from the general anesthesia quickly. What made me feel that the anesthesia + surgery were done well was that after waking from anesthesia, I was completely fine. People say that if you have endotracheal intubation, your throat hurts and your shoulder and neck muscles hurt too, but I was just completely fine. After moving to the recovery room, I slept, woke up, and was so fine that I could video call my friend. The nurses + Director Lee Tae-sung came by the hospital room frequently to check my condition and reassure me. The hospital room was a private room, and the view was really nice. I could also watch Netflix, so I stayed comfortably the whole time I was hospitalized. The nurse changed my ice packs whenever they got lukewarm, took careful care of me, and also gave me a discharge kit when I was discharged. **1 week after surgery Every time I woke up after sleeping, the swelling had become extremely severe. It was swollen to the point that I wondered if it could really swell this much. I was so swollen that it was hard to eat anything, I had no appetite, and I could not chew, so for about 3 days I got by on drinks like misutgaru and watermelon juice. From day 4, I started eating things like porridge. I dropped about 1 kg each day. Forced dieting. Even with swelling, I could really feel that my face shape had changed a lot. They told me not to brush my teeth until the stitches were removed, so I diligently disinfected with mouthwash. As the swelling gradually started going down a lot, once I could chew food, I carried scissors around and diligently cut up my food with scissors before eating. Things like jajangmyeon, cold noodles, and noodles were easy to cut and swallow, so I ate them a lot, and every time I ate, food would get stuck inside my mouth, so I used mouthwash really often. From the time I started eating food, it felt so unpleasant that I secretly brushed my teeth with a baby toothbrush without telling the hospital.
