It has already been a year since my double-jaw and facial-contouring surgery—time really flies haha. I had the surgery with Dr. Shin Hee-jin at [Clinic A]. These days, daily life has become so comfortable that I sometimes even forget I had surgery. Especially now that I am 12 months post-op, the residual swelling has settled considerably, and my facial shape blends naturally with my features, so I am very satisfied.
Originally, my protruding chin and malocclusion made eating difficult, and I was sometimes told that my pronunciation was unclear. Since my facial contour had also become a concern, I decided on double-jaw surgery to improve both function and appearance. Because it is a major surgery, safety was my top priority. I visited [Clinic A] after hearing that they had extensive surgical experience and thorough consultations. During the consultation, they explained everything in detail, from my condition to the surgery and recovery, which made me trust them and ultimately decide to proceed.
From month 11, my bite stabilized and I became comfortable enough to eat tough foods without difficulty, which greatly improved my daily satisfaction haha. Now, one year after surgery, the pulling sensation and foreign-body feeling around my mouth when making facial expressions have disappeared, and I like how my facial line has been refined without looking excessive. I started this surgery because of my protruding chin and malocclusion, but one year later, everything from eating to making natural facial expressions feels comfortable, so I think I made the right decision!!
