I'm leaving a post as soon as I woke up. I could have written yesterday too, but it wasn't that I was in pain; my body felt exhausted and I didn't want to do anything, so I couldn't even come into the community. I had it done at ㄱㅀ. I had nose surgery on Friday, and yesterday I had my cheekbones and jaw done, and as expected, nose surgery and facial contouring can't be compared. Maybe because it was general anesthesia, it really wasn't painful, but my body felt a bit worn out. Surgery started around 10:30 a.m. In the hospital room I got a sedative (but I guess that was the anesthetic). I don't remember walking to the operating room, but they said that when I saw that Dr. Park*ho, who was originally supposed to operate on me, wasn't there and Dr. Jung** was in the operating room, I kept looking for the doctor who was originally supposed to be in charge of me. Even in that state, as if I were looking for a boyfriend or something.. lol Anyway, I had the surgery done by Dr. Park**. When I woke up from anesthesia, I was sleeping on the operating room bed. So I said I was awake and asked them to send me quickly to the hospital room, and I was moved there. The woman who had only cheekbone surgery right before my surgery was already fully awake and walking around. I was groggy, and with this indescribably stuffy and unpleasant feeling, I just fell asleep again. Then when I opened my eyes again, another person had only jaw surgery and was struggling like me. Fellow sufferers... ugh.... Soon a nurse came in and handed out one bag to each of us. Inside, she explained a gargle solution in a big saline bottle and several medicine packets, gave us cold compress packs, and explained precautions about the facial compression band. Then before going home, the doctors came and checked all their own patients, even looked after patients they hadn't operated on, and the anesthesiologist also came and asked if I was okay. Anyway, I have no choice but to acknowledge how kind the hospital was. Especially for me, the doctor took me back to the operating room, loosened the pressure bandage and facial compression band once, and let me touch my jaw and cheekbones. I was distressed because I felt like I was the only one who had swollen dramatically compared with people who had cheekbone or jaw surgery, but there was just a lot of gauze inside the compression band, and I actually wasn't that swollen. Anyway, when I touched the cheekbone under my eyes with my hand, it was gone. It was fascinating. I felt good for a moment then. lol Then he showed me the jawbone that had been cut. He had said my jawbone was curved inward, so even if the frontal effect might not be big, the bone itself was large, and it really was large compared with other people's. After confirming that, they said I could go home, so I got dressed, called a taxi, and came home. Maybe because I did both cheekbones and jaw, it's hard to eat by myself with a spoon. I just lie there like someone waiting for a persimmon to fall from a persimmon tree, and if I open my mouth a little, my mom puts porridge through that opening. lol And I'm having a lot of things like ice cream and drinks, and they said gargling often is the most important, so I'm gargling diligently. As for swelling, seeing that one double eyelid has come back, I think it's better than yesterday, but I'm not sure. For photos, because of the facial compression band, and because my nose has a cast so I can't even tell the shape, I'll upload them after these are taken off. This got too long and disorganized. I guess I'm still not fully myself...
