Before surgery, as you can see, my cheekbones looked prominent and my face had a lot of shadowing. I thought it might be an issue with my face shape, so I tried procedures and meridian massage too, but in the end, it wasn’t a bone issue. Actually, during the consultation, they said my bones were small. They said my face looked uneven because I didn’t have much facial fat, so I was debating between filler and fat grafting, and ended up getting fat grafting at Saegim. People here who, like me, are worried because they don’t have much facial fat are probably debating between filler and fat grafting, so I’ll make it easy to decide. Want to add natural-looking volume > fat grafting ⭕️ filler ❌ Worried about the solution migrating > fat grafting ⭕️ filler ❌ Want to do the whole face at once with fewer worries about side effects > fat grafting ⭕️ filler ❌ But fat grafting almost never ends with just the first round. You need to do up to the second round for better longevity. I also discussed up to the second round with the director during consultation before getting the surgery. On the day of surgery, the swelling was pretty full, so my face looked big lol. It felt heavy and tight. It felt subtly awkward when I smiled, but there wasn’t much pain. After a week passed, I started to feel like the swelling had gone down somewhat, and my sibling, who had watched my whole recovery process from before surgery, said around then I finally looked somewhat like a human face. To my eyes, it still looked excessive. The time when my satisfaction really got higher was after the 2-week mark...... There was almost no minor swelling, and my facial line looked more refined. It wasn’t awkward when I smiled anymore, and I especially genuinely loved my forehead. Looking back now, since it was full-face, the swelling was unavoidable, but I think I was being overly dramatic by myself;; Still, it has settled exactly the way the director initially designed it, and it’s getting more and more natural, so I’m satisfied...... Oh, with fat grafting, you have to be careful even when sleeping. Even now, when I do makeup, I tap the puff gently^^ My fat is precious..... I hope it lasts a long time
