An honest review~ (jaw, cheekbones day 9)

I kept thinking I should write a review, but I was lazy and only picked out the information I needed before leaving... As of today, it's day 9 since my jaw and cheekbone surgery.. From the first day after surgery through days 3 or 4, I went through almost the same things as many of you.. swelling, bruising, eating, and so on Since I enjoy smoking and drinking, it was hard to resist the temptation, so I started smoking from day 5. Other than my lips hurting because they pull from the healing wound tissue when I smoke, so far I haven't had inflammation from smoking or swelling that is not going down, things like that... Still, there are individual differences, so I hope you won't do risky things like this To reduce swelling, I diligently did warm compresses, and from day 5 I also walked around the school field for 2 hours... Other than elementary school students looking at me strangely, there wasn't much to worry about... The swelling and bruising started noticeably going down from day 7, and yesterday a lot had gone down, so I even went out. I still had bruising and bloodshot whites of my eyes... but I covered them with the horn-rimmed glasses and hat I had wanted so badly to try wearing (after surgery, the swelling made the facial contour unclear, but my cheekbones and jaw were much smaller, so even swollen, they suited me well) and met a friend I'm 27, and one friend I've known since I was a baby said I looked like I did in elementary school and seemed secretly jealous... I felt like I was flying. The right side is slightly more swollen than the left, and when I chew, I have slight pain around the cheekbone and temporomandibular joint area... I've read in many reviews that this can happen too, so although I'm anxious, I'm trying not to worry about it Before surgery, I had a face shape with very prominent cheekbones and a square jaw, so if ranking face size, I was about rank 1 or 2.. It was a face that wouldn't lose to anyone even to men After going through the hard and painful time of surgery, I've become a little more confident. I used to not look in the mirror even when washing my hands in the bathroom, and I used to be scared of elevators covered in mirrors and walk up the stairs, but now I check my face in every reflective surface, feel reassured, and secretly feel happy again~ I didn't have surgery to become pretty~ I just wanted to have an ordinary face size like other people... Fortunately, I'm satisfied even now... and when the swelling goes down a little more, I'll probably be happy...^^ Yesterday I couldn't control my appetite and ate a lot, including dumplings, a hot bar, a bottle of Capri, stone-pot udon, and so on... I guess the wounds inside my mouth have healed a lot, because the stitches have melted here and there and are hanging loose.. It should be okay, right? lol I'm writing this at dawn because I can't sleep, so the order may not make perfect sense.. I trust you'll understand that And to those seniors who had jaw and cheekbone surgery before me~ When I make facial expressions, especially on my right cheekbone and jaw, it feels a little tight/lumpy and painful.. The left side has no problem, but only the right side does, so I'm anxious. Has anyone had this like me and then returned to normal?
