Motivation & Why EU?
I was consulted at the dentist because of
the severe malocclusion and discomfort both in cosmetically and functionally.
As a result, I was diagnosed with double jaw surgery. I tried to operate at
another hospital, but I also hesitated because I was afraid of revision surgery
since I had experience with failed to do face bone surgery in the past. I was planning
to give up, but after six months of surgery, I was told that I had to removal
pin surgery and my parents persuaded me to remove the pin and consider revision
surgery. I has been search about the hospital and got to know where the EU is,
and it was more professional than the hospital I had the first surgery, and the
staff was kind. Above all, the doctor's
explanation was easy to understand, so I decided to revision surgery at EU.

OP 1 Day
I was too difficult to breathe, but I was
able to hold out when I heard the surgery went well.

OP 3 Days
When I came home from the hospital and
looked in the mirror, my face was so swollen that it was funny. Breathing was
still uncomfortable, but it is bearable to think of improvement.

OP 4 Days
The doctor said I could wash it, so I
removed the tape on my face and washed it. It was so refreshing and I feel more
comfortable breathing than yesterday. I felt so good because I felt that I am recovering
well.

OP 12 Days
My face seems to have lost a lot of
swelling, and easy to breathing now. However, it is so hard to eat because my
mouth is still tied. I can't wait for the 2nd week to release the fixed one and
eat porridge.

OP 14 Days
It's the day to get stitches out. If I
remove the stitches, the intermaxillary fixation will be more comfortable than
now. I was so happy that I could finally eat porridge and other foods. I was
happy to hear that I lost a lot of swelling and I was glad to hear that my postoperative
recovery is good.

OP 17 Days
I had double jaw IVRO surgery and I go to check
progress outcome on the 17th days. Now, it is easier to eat than
before and I can hang out with friends. The discomfort of surgery has
disappeared a lot, but I still have to wear a rubber band for a long time, so I
feel a little uncomfortable. I hope the time passes quickly and the recovery
goes well.

Everything is comfortable with daily life.
I think the surgery went well, so I'm so happy, and I hope my upper teeth sensation
comeback faster than now J

OP 35 Days
I visited EU to check the progress of the
surgery and took pictures with X-rays. The outcome of the surgery is very good
and the recovery is also going well! It's a relief, but I was so happy to think
that I don't have to suffer like this again. Now I met my friends, and at
first, my pronunciation was leak, but as time goes by, I think I can speak
better. The swelling hasn't all gone yet, so I hope the swelling goes down more
quickly and becomes natural.

OP 45 Days
Now I feel much more comfortable chewing
and my molar slowly moving to the right position as I get the orthodontic
treatment. I am happy to hear that I look better after the surgery than before.

OP 60 Days
Now, it has become so natural that people cannot
recognize that I did surgery if I did not tell them.. Eating and talking have
become so comfortable that it's no different than before surgery. Compared to
the photos before the surgery and now, I think I look definitely better than
before but my mouth isn't as wide as it used to be, so I'll have to practice
opening my mouth often!
Post
OP 3 Months
I was worried about the revision surgery,
but I'm glad surgery outcome is really good!
Post
OP 4 Months
I almost forgot that when I had surgery, I
feel so comfortable chewing, I feel more comfortable eating, and I've been told
that over time, I feel more natural and better.

OP 6 Months
Now I'm gaining weight as much as I used
to. I still have braces on, so I want to get rid of braces as soon as possible.
