Motivation of the surgery

The malocclusion avoids me from chewing food with my front teeth. I hated that my chin was curved every time I took a picture. So I didn't want to take pictures, and I was very worried. In the meantime, I searched on Google for a double jaw surgery in Seoul and went to the EU homepage. I really like the surgery reviews and I decided to get the consultation at EU & did surgery there!

Post OP 1 day :

It was the most difficult to overcome dizziness like a hangover because of the effects of anesthesia and painless injections. I kept sitting that my butt feels numb. It was difficult to swallow water, but I was thirsty and drank.

Post OP 4 days:

I was comfortable when I came home after I was discharged. The dizziness disappeared a lot. However, when the pain disappeared, I was so hungry. I was drinking New Care, but my neck was still swollen so it was hard to swallow it. Still, the dizziness disappeared, making it much easier.

Post OP 7 days:

Stuffy nose and pain disappeared, making sleeping easier. Still, there are still a lot of things I want to eat, so I only watch a lot of them on YouTube. Time doesn't seem to go very fast : (

Post OP 10 days:

New Care has already begun to get sick of it, start to skip to drink new care. Still, I didn't feel hungry because I drink a lot of water but I start to get stomach due to drink a lot of liquid. While sleeping, sleep comfortably unless the humidifier is not turned off.

Post OP 14 days:

Today, I was able to remove the stitch out and detach the wafer from the hospital. The part where the seam was removed hurts a little, but I came home and cleaned my teeth and ate the porridge comfortably. It was so good to be able to eat more conveniently than when I had a wafer. I want to be able to eat everything quickly soon!

Post OP 18 days:

Cheese cake or castella was added to the milk and grinded. It's pretty good because there's more to eat. Because I was worried about the wafer when I was sleeping, there were many things that were quite comfortable except for the occasional situation such as wafer is bothering me. I'm also trying my best to do mouth exercise, so I hope I can open my mouth a lot sooner.

Post OP 21 days:

It’s getting easier to to brush my teeth. The inside of the mouth also heals a lot, so it doesn't hurt to touch it when brushing my teeth. Since the uncomfortable things disappeared from the beginning, I do not have any issues during daily life! It just like before surgery. I hope the remaining swelling will disappear soon since school going to start soon!

Post OP 24 days:

I thought I had reduced swelling a lot that so I went to see my friends. They also said that my swelling has been reduced more than what I expected. The swelling gradually reduce and the wounds in my mouth seem to recover, so I feel comfortable. It's time to go to the hospital soon. I want to eat chicken soon.

Post OP 28 days:

I ate ramen because I was get tired of eating only new care and porridge. I couldn't chew it, so I just cut it with scissors and swallowed it without chewing it. I think I can eat it again next time. Now, there are few orthodontic treatments left and I should take care of myself well J

Post OP 31 days:

Two days later, I will visit EU soon. Probably I will take X-rays and took picture of my face. I used with asymmetric face that, the face seems to be bent even after surgery. I think it's because of the muscles, so I'll take a look after get rid of with all the swelling.

Post OP 34 days:

From EU, I took a picture of my face and X-rays so I get can consulted with the doctor. The doctor told me about the future schedule. And the important thing is that I can chew foods that are crushed by hand and soft foods little by little. Now I can eat rice more comfortably.

Post OP 40 days: 

My friends were aware that I will do the operation. They told me that my swelling has been reduced a lot. I was pleasure to hear that my image looks different before and after surgery. These days, I have neglected the

movement to open my mouth exercise, but I have to work hard again.

Post OP 46 days:

The orthodontist told me that I still had to wear wafers longer since mandible is still bent to the right when I close my mouth, so it does not come exactly to the center. I thought it would work by wearing only a wafer, but I realize that I must have to use my own muscles to adjust it too. I should try to stay in the middle steadily.

Post OP 58 days:

In recent years, my mouth has been wide open! Also orthodontist advises me to chew the food more often. But I still cannot eat a lot of food that I am craving for other delicious food. I think it's a good thing because I still can eat a lot of food than before.

Post OP 64 days:

It's polite and the swelling in the cheek clown is really missing. I still have left, but the people I have seen for the first time are so much missing. And my right jaw hurts so I have to ask the hospital on Friday.

Post OP 67 days:

I removed the screws on the gums and changed the wires. Orthodontist said that if the lower teeth try to go back to the position as before the surgery, I don’t need to force the wafer. I still have to worry about my chin moving to the right, so I have pay attention to my chin during the daily life.

Post OP 73 days:

Now the lower teeth do not fit the wafer. Still, the underneath teeth are still going to the right, so when I open my mouth, they open to the right. So, even when I open my mouth, I should pay attention, and it seems to be working.

Post OP 76 days:

Even when chewing rice, I feel so good that it doesn't hurt anymore. Still, chewing is still dangerous, so I'm chewing carefully. Still, it is good to have a lot of menus to eat. Currently, I can eat most of the soft food.

Post OP 79 days:

When I open my mouth, sometimes it just makes a sound, but it doesn't hurt, but the sound is so loud that I have to ask once when I go to the next hospital.

Post OP 88 days:

Now the sensation is starting to come back, but when I touch the left cheek I still feel numb it.. The left cheek and upper gum are still numb.

Post OP 94 days:.

I hope the day will come so that I can eat meat and chewy food as soon as possible. When I try to eat that its so painful that I cannot even try it.

Post OP 5 Months:

Now it is completely back to daily life. I also can eat what I want to eat. Orthodontist said that the braces are also very good, so it would be okay to remove the wire. When I look at myself through the mirror, my nose and cheek are still swelling but I'm also working out hard. I assume that I will look much better soon! I am so happy!

Post OP 6 Months:

It seems like the sound from the left chin is getting better when time goes. I think it will be completely better when I take out the braces. Since school is on vacation, I can go on a trip and eat meat without any concern! so I think I can eat meat casually.

Post OP 7 Months

Post OP 8 Months:

The brace is now complete. Now, I have been waiting for only 2 weeks because any food will be stick on the braces. I want to take it off as soon as possible! ...

Post OP 9 Months:

After removing the braces, the sound from the jaw disappeared.

Post OP 10 Months:

I am wearing retainer and it is very convenient, except that the pronunciation is strange. Now there is no food that will stick on the braces and bothers me. So this brushing teeth time has been reduced.

Post OP 11 Months:

Almost a year has passed since the operation, so there is nothing uncomfortable. I wear a retainer only when I sleep, so I feel like I'm back in my normal daily life.

Post OP 12 Months:

It has been over a year since the surgery. It was tough experience, but the operation was good and I am satisfied with the result!. At first, I was scared and afraid that there would be side effects, but when times goes everything gets better. I am glad to meet EU and did surgery here!​
