Motivation to get surgery
Since I was young, I have been under a lot
of stress with underbite and facial asymmetry. In particular, the photo taken
by others showed that my mouth was twisted, but the jaw surgery was so big that
I didn't even think about surgery. However, it was a case that I couldn't
improve even with braces, I became more stressed and decided to have surgery.
Under pressure because of
Underbite, lantern Jaw, Facial asymmetry

After the anesthesia, it was very hard to
get my consciousness back cause of anesthesia gas. It was really hard not being
able to sleep even though I kept falling asleep, and above all, my throat hurt
so much. As soon as it reaches at 9 o'clock, I drank some water and went
straight to sleep, but I woke up countless times and fell asleep all morning.
It's been repeated. Thanks to the nurse for coming and taking care of me during
the night. Still, it was fortunate that it didn't hurt as much as I expected.

Clearly, after a day, I do not need to
suffer for the discomfort. As soon as I woke up in the morning, I drank water
first, and I emptied all the new care that was hard to eat yesterday. After
that, I got disinfected by a doctor and discharged! I was so happy to be able
to wash up after I was discharged from the hospital, and it was even better to
see my face shape changed even though I was still swollen!

Today, I ate beef and vegetable porridge,
but it was more convenient to eat after blend the solid ingredients of the soup.
The overall swelling has decreased more than yesterday. The bruises come down
to my neck and swell up, so my neck looks thicker, so I feel a little awkward.
I hope the swelling goes down soon.

The inconvenient things go away one by one.
I'm appreciating that I don’t need to wake up the middle of the night due to breathing issues. I
went for a walk at night today, and I can definitely see that my face is less
swollen after walking.

I visited the hospital to get disinfection
treatment and deswelling laser treatment. Also, I am glad to hear that I can
brush my teeth lightly.

As the swelling gradually receded, finally
I can see my jawline! Of course, it's still a long way to go, but it's also fun
to check the swelling going down every day. I'm drinking pumpkin juice
steadily, but I heard drinking a lot of water will help, so I'll try my best to
drink it!!

I visited the hospital to get laser
treatment and I think it really helps to reduce the swelling and I am
stratifying with it.

I am really getting sick of food since I
have been eating the same food for so long! I wish to remove stitches as soon
as possible. Also, I am not sure why I tend to force my chin and lip area. The
doctor told me to relax it!
Post OP 15 Days
Finally, I visited the hospital and remove
stitch out. When I read the reviews some people said its painful but for me it
was not bad at all. After stitch out, I can eat rice as usual and I can
eat soft food without the wafer. As soon as I got home, I ate custard and
soaked in milk and I was happy. I can't wait to reach post-op for 1 month!

It's slower than the beginning, but as the
swelling goes down, the facial line gradually shows! At first, I thought my
chin was too short, but as time went by, my cheeks became less swollen, so I'm
glad it became more natural. Haha
Post OP 18 Days
The philtrum and cheeks are still swollen.
I think it's because I haven't been taking a walk in the evening lately. Also,
I can eat all the soft food well that I start to gain weight. .

The morning and evening swelling seems to
be definitely different. The morning is swollen, but the evening feels less
swollen! What I feel whenever I take pictures these days is that I can see that
the face without Photoshop is prettier than the face I did Photoshop before.

My cheeks don't seem to improve, so I'm
trying to drink more water and pumpkin juice. I'm trying to take a walk after
dinner that I haven't done recently! I hope the awkward swelling goes away
soon.

I thought my chin is too short but as the
swelling goes down feel like my chin looks much natural! Now that my cheeks are
less swollen, I am getting more natural as time goes by. And I met my relatives
after a long time and they said my face has gotten much smaller.
Post OP 30 Days
These days, I'm practicing facial
expressions and opening mouth exercises to relax my mouth muscles! I still feel
like tight, but by the way, I hope my nose gets rid of swelling soon. My face
is relatively small, but my nose is bigger and I can only see my nose.

Now I can chew food more comfortably than
before. However, for the next three weeks, I tried to eat soft foods that are
easy to chew. In fact, there is a lot of delicious food and I am used to
eating, so I am not that tired yet. If I eat food like tteokbokki, I think I
will feel more awkward.

So far, I think my face is swollen a lot
in the morning. So I am trying to eat pumpkin juice steadily!
Post OP 38 Days
Just a few weeks ago, I couldn't open my
mouth when I was eating, so all the food crumbs on my mouth area. Now my mouth
is open quite well and I feel that time has passed really fast. I wish I could
get rid of the swelling in my cheeks.
Post OP 40 Days
I'm eating soft food without difficulty.

I went for a walk after dinner, and it was
amazing that there was a difference in swelling before and after the walk even
though it was a similar time. LOL I think walking is the answer to reduce the
swelling.
Post OP 42 Days
I had a lot of fat under- chin until last
week, but I guess I'm losing a little bit. I hope the swelling goes down soon.

I really wanted to eat a dried snacks when
I saw my dad eat snacks tonight. I cannot eat that food since I need to avoid
it after surgery.
Post OP 54 Days
I walked a little after work for the first
time in a long time, so I looked less swollen in the evening. I think walking
is the best way to reduce swelling!!
Post OP 56 Days
I showed to the doctor how I open my mouth
complimentary and he told me that I practiced well to mating the occlusion
without wafers. It's still hard to live without wafers, but I was happy that I
could live without wafers the next time I visit the hospital.

I went around Myeong-dong to shop all day
long, but I think my face is still swollen because I ate a lot. I'm still
wearing a wafer because I am on the process of getting braces treatment, but I
don't feel much uncomfortable except when I eat. If I wear a wafer, I feel
stable.
Post OP 68 Days
I certainly eat a lot of food and sleep
late the day before, and my face swells the next day. I never really
cared about swelling before the surgery.
