Before surgery, my chin was on the long and pointy side, so I was always concerned that my overall face looked sharp. In photos or depending on the angle, my chin line often looked even longer, so rather than wanting an obvious “I had surgery” look, I wanted a natural improvement where my chin looked a bit shorter and the line was softly refined. So during the consultation, I emphasized that what mattered most to me was not an excessive change, but a refined look that suited my face. Director Oh Jeong-seok was also on the same page.
What I felt most strongly after anterior chin surgery at the clinic was that my impression definitely became softer. The tip of my chin is no longer emphasized in a pointy way like before, and as my overall facial contour became more refined, my facial vibe feels softer. Rather than a noticeable change, it is closer to looking cleaner and more refined overall. That natural kind of change was exactly what I wanted, so I am even more satisfied with the result.
I think the recovery process was better than expected too. I was able to return to daily life relatively quickly, and now I am living without any major problems in everyday life. I do not really remember having discomfort severe enough to interfere with daily activities, and as time passed, it felt like everything was settling in more and more naturally.
My friends almost never noticed that I had surgery, and most of them just said my face looked more refined or cleaner. I liked that response even more because it matched what I was aiming for. I am currently 6 months post-op, and as time passes, the line feels like it is stabilizing more naturally, so overall my satisfaction is high.
