Two-month review after cheekbone reduction surgery~

I had cheekbone reduction surgery with Director Im Jong-woo at a plastic surgery clinic, and I’m currently two months post-op. Even at the one-month mark, I still had quite a bit of swelling, so I was worried, but after two months, the major swelling has definitely almost gone down, and my facial contour feels much more refined. There is still some residual swelling below my cheeks, but in everyday life, people I know barely notice, so it doesn’t bother me much. What I feel most is that my facial line has definitely become softer. Before, my 45-degree cheekbones stood out, so my impression looked a bit strong, but now I feel like my overall image has changed to something much more feminine and calm. People around me also ask more often if I lost weight, but I think it’s actually largely because of my cheekbones, which is fascinating. At two months post-op, I can eat almost everything freely, and opening my mouth has become much more comfortable. However, I’m still careful with hard foods, and very occasionally I feel a slight stiffness when I laugh or move a lot, but it’s gradually decreasing. The speed at which swelling goes down probably differs from person to person, but even for someone like me who swells easily, I can clearly see it settling over time, so I think waiting is the answer. Thinking back to how hard it was in the beginning, I’m much more comfortable now, so my satisfaction is gradually increasing.
