As I got older, the nasolabial folds gradually deepened, the jowls beside my mouth started sagging, and a double chin also appeared under my chin, so I was under a lot of stress by myself. People around me kept saying I looked tired and gloomy these days, so every time I looked in the mirror I became more aware of it. I had always lived thinking I was scared of anything involving a knife on my face, so I had never even considered a plastic surgery clinic, but when I told my eldest daughter about this, she seemed to have looked everything up on her own. She said she had searched reviews and also asked people around her for recommendations, and told me that this time we should at least go and hear about it, so I was led by my daughter to go for a consultation with Director Kwon Joo-yong. Since it was my first time in a plastic surgery clinic, I was very nervous until I actually went in, but once I sat in front of the director and started talking about my concerns, the atmosphere felt more comfortable than I had expected. He explained one by one why my nasolabial folds looked deep, and why the jowls beside my mouth and the area under my chin looked saggy, and because he explained it in a way that matched my level instead of just using difficult terms, I found myself nodding along. He said that instead of just pulling the whole face up blindly, it would be better to first slightly refine the fat along the jawline and jowls, then lift the sagging areas upward with a mini vertical lift, and then use thread lifting once more to shape the line. At first, because it was surgery talk, it only felt difficult, but as I listened carefully to the explanation, I began to picture roughly how it would change, and I thought this might be worth trying. It also helped a lot that my daughter was sitting there listening with me and catching the things I might have missed. So after that consultation, we ended up setting the surgery date, and I had the first lifting procedure of my life~~ I also liked that the incision goes inside the hairline, so it would not be very visible from the outside. After the surgery, the jowls that had been sagging bulgily beside my mouth and the double chin under my chin were tidied up, and my dull-looking jawline seemed much smoother and more alive. The deep-looking nasolabial folds also smoothed out more naturally than before, so my whole impression looked much brighter and softer. More than anything, my expression does not feel awkward as if my face were being forcibly pulled, and it seems like only the sagging areas that had bothered me were naturally corrected, which is what I like most. Right now I am diligently receiving the care the hospital provides and also walking with my daughter to reduce the swelling, and watching it gradually settle over time makes me feel that it was really a good thing that I was led there by my daughter for the consultation.
