I had always had a complex because my face was somewhat angular and my square jaw was prominent. My confidence had dropped a lot because of the first impression my appearance gave, so I decided to undergo square jaw surgery to improve it.
Among many clinics, I chose this contouring clinic because its expertise and reviews were very positive. Most of all, I liked that they listened carefully to patients’ concerns and provided a customized diagnosis. Unlike other clinics, they did not pressure me, I could be discharged the same day, and I did not have to wear a drainage tube, which were also advantages. Above all, the doctor’s confidence gave me certainty. There was also no attempt at all to push me into having other areas done unnecessarily. When I said I was considering cheekbone surgery too, he said, “Then I would not recommend it. Do it when you are sure you really want it.” I really liked that!
When I went for the consultation, the doctor carefully examined the overall bone structure of my face and explained in detail the appropriate surgical method for me and the expected results. He kindly answered every question, and he also honestly explained recovery and postoperative care, so I trusted him. During the consultation, I felt reassured because he seemed to genuinely empathize with my concerns, and I also liked that he did not blindly recommend surgery.
The biggest change I felt after surgery was that my facial line became much softer and my impression changed to a more balanced one. Every time I look in the mirror, I can see a look I am much more satisfied with than before, so my confidence naturally increased as well. People around me said they did not even know I had surgery! They said my face looked smaller and my impression became softer.
The recovery process was not as easy as I expected. Right after surgery, the swelling was severe, so my face looked quite swollen, and I had pain for a few days. However, after faithfully following the cold compresses and medication treatment recommended by the clinic and resting, the swelling went down significantly after about three days, and my facial shape recovered to some extent. I also managed my meals and lifestyle habits carefully, and by closely following the instructions I received during the consultation, I was able to recover without any major issues. It was hard to get through two weeks on a liquid diet, but I made the effort for better results! The managers were always kind, answered sincerely whenever I asked about swelling care, and even adjusted the schedule so it would work with my available time, which moved me.
Overall, I am very satisfied with my decision to have surgery at this clinic. The anxiety and worries I had before surgery were greatly eased through the consultation and professional surgical process, and the results were also better than expected. If there is anyone with the same concern as me, I would like to recommend this clinic!! Above all, because its expertise and consideration for patients stood out, I think it is a good place to undergo surgery with peace of mind.
