This is an honest review of jaw surgery and contouring surgery at W Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, where I had surgery for an underbite and had my plates removed one year later. I had a severe appearance complex throughout my school years because of an underbite that started in elementary school. It was not just an issue of appearance, but I also really love eating and had reduced chewing function, so I always had a lot of discomfort every time I chewed food. In the end, after a long period of deliberation, I decided to have jaw surgery at W Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. A full year has passed since the surgery. Now I can live comfortably like I did before surgery, without having to be especially careful in daily life, such as when eating or exercising. It has also been quite some time since I had the plate removal surgery, so I have now fully adjusted without any foreign-body sensation or other bothersome issues. As for appearance, I think jaw surgery is a procedure that brings much greater personal satisfaction than hoping for some dramatic celebrity-like transformation. Of course, not only long-time acquaintances but also people I meet for the first time these days sometimes compliment my appearance, so it really makes me feel good. When I took photos to write this review, I could clearly feel the change myself because pictures came out much better than before. Even if it is not an enormous transformation, functional chewing problems and appearance-related complexes are factors that cause stress every moment in daily life, so I am certain that for people with similar concerns, this will be a decision they will not regret. Lastly, my initial recovery after surgery was faster than I expected, so I underestimated how major the surgery was and overdid things, which led to inflammation a few times. Each time, the hospital handled the aftercare very quickly and carefully, so I was able to recover healthily without major problems. Because it is such a major operation, it is important not only to choose a surgeon with strong technical skill, but also a hospital that takes full responsibility for meticulous aftercare, and in that sense I strongly recommend W Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
