Surgical Motivation
I had a complex since I was in middle
school, so I had a habit of pushing my jaw inwards without realizing it. As a
result, my jaw was strained and I started to chew on only one side. As it
continued, I felt my jaw hurt and my face turned asymmetrical when I had to eat
with my mouth wide open. So I decided to have a fundamental double jaw surgery,
so that I could eat comfortably and not be more uncomfortable in the future.
Why
I chose EU
I have been to various hospitals. I was so
relieved to see doctor try to understand my point and explain specifically how
many mm are coming out and what's going to happen after surgery.
Post OP 1day
I was very nervous, but I fell asleep. I
woke up and the operation was over. I wanted to sleep because of the
anesthesia, but I couldn't sleep, which was painful and difficult to sleep. I
kept the ice pack on my chin so it didn't hurt much.
Post OP 2days
I was happy to be able to be much more
comfortable than the first day because I removed the tube from my nose and
urine line. I can't open my mouth, so I feel uncomfortable when my nose is
stuffy, but I think it's tolerable.
Post OP 6days
It's a little easier to breathe than
yesterday. I can see some bruises, but I think they'll reduce soon.
Post OP 7days
It's getting easier to breathe with nose
because it's getting more healed inside. And the bottom of the chin is getting
less swollen. As I turned my head, I
felt less pulling and softer.
Post OP 9days
I think the deafening symptoms are almost
gone. The face has become a little softer. After a week of surgery, I was going
to lie down and sleep, but I feel a little uncomfortable breathing, so I sleep
on a high pillow
Post OP 12days
My left cheek is a little swollen than
yesterday. He also said that his ears felt stuffy several times a day and
disappeared. It's not too uncomfortable.
Post OP 15days
I got stitches removed from the hospital.
It was so painful to remove the stitches, but it was good to tie, untie, and
fix it. My gums bleed because I am not used to the intermaxillary fixation yet,
but I have to do it, so I try to adapt hard.
Post OP 16days
I do 10 sets of open-mouthed exercises four
times a day. The movement of the mouth is unnatural and swollen. It's recovering
well and I think this part will become natural over time. I don't worry about opening my mouth because
I think I'll be able to adjust well.
Post OP 21days
The swelling has not gone away yet, so I
feel uncomfortable about moving my mouth. The jaw area doesn't look natural
either, so I'm doing a short cold massage and exercise my mouth.
Post OP 27days
There is discomfort at the tip of the chin.
The other cheek area first softened, and now the chin tip is softer to move.
Post OP 32days
The jaw joint sounds were much better than
before the operation. My mouth isn't wide yet, but I think it's softer than it
was before the surgery when my jaw joint made it difficult for me to open my
mouth.
Post OP 42days
The philtrum and chin on the mouth are not
soft yet. It is uncomfortable to re-tie the upper and lower legs with wires
because they said that it is not easy to get a jaw bite from the orthodontist.
I'll have to work a little harder to improve.
Post OP 48days
I think all the pain in my jaw is gone now,
but my mouth looks a bit unnatural.
Post OP 55days
It's a little swollen in the morning, so
it's unnatural and it feels natural in the afternoon. I think opening my mouth
is getting softer and I can eat more and more well.
Post OP 83days
As I moved my mouth, my right jaw felt more
painful and slowly healed. Now there's no pain and it's soft. But there is
still swelling on the cheek.
Post OP 3 Months
The left jawline feels slightly untidy and
the face under the chin is irritated when the face is swollen. But it doesn't
bother me much, and it doesn't affect my life at all. My jaw is much softer
than before and I am satisfied enough.

Post OP 6 Months
There is little inconvenience these days. I
still get swelling around my jaw when I wake up in the morning, but I don't
care much because I get better quickly. Eating is much more comfortable than
before.
Post OP 7 Months
Now there is nothing uncomfortable about
using the full jaws. I am looking forward to it because I think my teeth will
become more comfortable after finishing the braces.
Post OP 8 Months
I'm always doing well. Surgery is no longer
inconvenient at all the time.Satisfied~ I hope my braces are finished soon.
Post OP 10 Months
Until a few months ago, I could see some
sagging under my chin. Now I don't care if it's because I've lost some weight
or if it's because I'm more settled. There are no inconveniences when eating or
living.
