My biggest complex had always been my angular, wide lower jaw, so I recently had a pinless V-line surgery at [Clinic A]. I was concerned about the line from the lower jaw to the side of the jaw, but during the consultation they said dramatic change might be difficult because my nerve line is relatively low. Still, they said they would improve the areas bothering me as much as possible, so I trusted them and had surgery.
What surprised me most was that it hurt less than expected…! Even after surgery, the pain was not as severe as I had feared, which was a relief. The clinic facilities were also excellent, so I was able to stay overnight and be discharged comfortably.
The swelling was worst on days 2–3, and my face was quite swollen then. After that, I took walks whenever I could and used a compression band and ice packs, and I could visibly see the swelling go down. There is still swelling around the side of my jaw, but the swelling under my jaw has decreased a lot, and I can clearly see that the line is different from before.
What is amazing is that people around me are already saying my face looks smaller and my midface looks shorter, so I am already looking forward to the final result! Haha. It has only been two weeks, so there is still swelling and I have to wait longer for the final line, but so far I am more satisfied than expected and enjoy looking at my face every day.
