I knew I had large cheekbones ever since I was young My face shape was slightly more diamond-shaped than oval, so whenever I took photos, I had a habit of naturally parting my lips,, lol. It didn’t cause any inconvenience in daily life, and I wasn’t someone who was very dissatisfied with my appearance either haha. Then one day, I suddenly couldn’t resist the urge to get it done, so I decided to have surgery!!!
I visited about 8 clinics over the course of a week, and among them, The Standard of Facial Contouring was the first place I had a consultation. After comparing several clinics, I felt that this clinic’s surgical technique was the most balanced yet professional. It’s not that the other clinics were bad; I think it’s important to clearly set your own standards and choose accordingly. Each clinic differs in surgical method, fixation method, incision line, and the way they handle the bone…?!
Now it’s been 6 months since my cheekbone surgery. As time has passed, I don’t even really remember what I was worried about before surgery. I remember looking at reviews and wondering whether they were promotional or AI-generated, but now I think everyone must have been sincere!! haha
The change is, of course, my face shape! Up until the 3-month mark, I still had some swelling, so I told the doctor that I was satisfied, but not extremely satisfied yet. Now, I’m completely satisfied. When I compared my 1-month and 3-month photos and touched the area myself, the change was clear. I honestly told them that I didn’t want to have surgery twice and that it was okay if the change was somewhat noticeable, and maybe because of that, I have absolutely no thoughts of revision surgery. That’s the part I’m most satisfied with!!
Now I’m eating well, going out, laughing, and working just like normal. The only thing I’m a little disappointed about is that I used to like making big ssam wraps or eating a big burger like a Big Mac in one bite, but I still can’t do that yet. Still, I plan to work hard on rehabilitation and recover that ability haha
This is a surgery review for a procedure pursuing a dramatic look.
