It’s been one month since surgery. My side cheekbones were prominent, and they said they pushed them in slightly so it wouldn’t disrupt the overall feel of my face. I don’t know if they’re just hidden because I still have residual swelling, but I can’t see the side cheekbones now. Looking back, even though I tend to swell easily, I think the major swelling went down quickly. It was a bit much, but I was walking around downtown after just a week. Now some people even say my cheeks look slightly fuller and pretty.... But... but..... I want to ask those who are a few months out from cheekbone surgery... Has anyone who had cheekbone surgery lost their under-eye aegyo-sal? When I smiled, the aegyo-sal used to bulge up on both sides, but one side disappeared, so I’m really upset. When I smile, my expression really looks noticeably uneven. On the other side, instead of the aegyo-sal disappearing, there’s a thick fatty bulge under the lower eyelid, you know? The kind older people often get.. the one that makes you look a bit tired.. That appeared instead. Anyway, when I smile, should I say it looks like I’m frowning... I saw photos taken outdoors and was completely shocked, and since then I can’t smile. ㅠ.ㅠ Will it come back later? Has anyone been in the same situation as me and returned to normal? Actually, I had no complaints about the surgery... the clinic staff were kind too. The doctor seemed trustworthy and was nice... The doctor told me to wait a little longer... but these days I’m trying not to smile in front of people and living with a blank expression, so I’m really anxious. I think I’d feel a bit relieved if someone said they were in the same situation as me and got better. Is there anyone like that?
