I had surgery for facial asymmetry, protruding jaw, and aesthetic improvement. There was the hardship of having to eat only a liquid diet for a month and sleep sitting up, but now, 8 years later, I’m generally satisfied. To the point that I regret not having the surgery sooner. However, since I’m older, I do have sagging cheek fat, so I think I’ll need maintenance later.
