Rather than making a small incision in the temporal area of the head, the surgery is performed by making an incision all the way from one ear to the other. And, as far as I know, there are only a few hospitals that perform such large-scale surgeries.
Therefore, there are not many reviews about this type of surgery, but the reason I am leaving a review is to share my surgical experience to help you make a choice.
I have written a review for up to a month, so I would appreciate it if you could check it through the link.

From one month to two months, the swelling begins to gradually subside. In my case, I think most of the swelling went down by the 2nd month.
For this reason, it is often said that in plastic surgery (especially contour surgery), the progress must be observed for up to a year, but I think that after 2 months, you can determine whether the surgery was successful or not and the extent of the large contour.
My cheekbones actually felt bigger because of the swelling for a month after the surgery. After two months, the swelling went down and I began to see my original appearance.
There hasn't been much change since then. What this means is that I am not sure about the effectiveness of cheek reduction surgery. Of course, if you compare it closely, it may have decreased a little.
I was concerned about my face shape having large side cheekbones, but the sides are equally large, and my friends and family would not even be able to tell that I had cheekbone surgery just by looking at my face.
When deciding on surgery, you must weigh the pros and cons.
In my case, there were too many things I didn't expect and the benefits were very minimal.
From now on, I will tell you what I think.
My hair started to fall out a lot for a month after the surgery. It falls straight out to the width of a finger.
Please check the attached photos of one month later and five months later.
Until the first month, I thought it was temporary hair loss and wasn't too worried.
But I started to feel anxious when the hair, which was supposed to start growing after 3-4 months, stopped growing.
So, around the third month, I went to a hair transplant hospital and received a consultation, and they told me that hair growth could go on for up to six months, but if it goes beyond six months, there is little chance that the hair will grow any further.
At that time, I received an estimate for 1,300 hairs, but 6 months later it didn't come up, so I got another estimate and it came out
as 2,200 hairs. The hair I expected to come up didn't come up, so the estimate actually increased.
Hair transplantation for scars aims to cover up scars, so the goal is to fill 50-80% of normal density.
My actual hair loss is much more than 2200 hairs.
Regarding hair loss, I would understand if this happened because I did something wrong with the care instructions given by the hospital, but I have not heard anything about hair loss.
However, if you had surgery through a scalp incision, if you treat the two weeks as a period of hair growth at the incision site and treat it carefully, you may lose less hair than me. (I learned this later while researching about hair transplantation.)
Anyway, I have a lot of hair at the incision site. What if it doesn't grow? I suffered with this thought for 6 months.
In the end, permanent large and small solders were created along the incision line.
The hospital easily says that it can be tied off after a year, but as a person myself, I feel skeptical.
The reasons are as follows.
1. When twisting, an oval-shaped incision is made and the surrounding normal hair is inevitably removed.
I have already lost over 2,200 hairs. How much more hair loss do I have to endure?
2. When performing an incisional hair transplant, open scars often occur even though the occipital area is excised to a width of 1 to 1.5 cm. Therefore, even if you cut a large piece of bread that is over 2 centimeters wide and twist it, there is a high possibility that it will open again.
3. Incision scar hair loss that extends less than 5mm along the incision line cannot be cut and twisted.
For the above reasons, I don't think it's something to be taken lightly and assume that permanent hair loss areas can be easily removed with scar excision.
I have a large scar at the incision site. The right and left crowns are especially wide open, leaving a large patch.
I told you earlier that I was skeptical about scar excision.
So, can I get a hair transplant on the scar area? That's not it either...
If you look at the scar area, it's hard, unlike normal skin. There aren't many blood vessels. Therefore, even if hair follicles are planted in the scar area, engraftment does not occur well.
Because the suture line is damaged deep into the skin, you can think of it as being covered with scar tissue.
It is said that the survival rate of scars from surgical incisions is 10-20% when hair transplantation is performed. It's a surgery guaranteed to fail.
This is what it means to have a scar on your head.
Can you see the circled part in the attached photo?
It would be nice if it was stitched cleanly, but mine was twisted unevenly. (Please look at the picture. It was not twisted like the blue box, but bumpy like the red box.)
Please keep in mind that since the incision line is very long, it may be difficult to suture all areas neatly like I did.
As two months passed, wrinkles appeared under my eyes as if they had been cut with a knife. The right side is especially severe.
The Indian band has become darker and the side of my nose is more convex, so my nasolabial folds have become very severe, making me look older overall.
I attached a photo before and after the surgery. How does it look? The hospital says it is absolutely not sagging cheeks, but I would appreciate it if you could leave an honest comment on whether or not it looks like sagging cheeks
(I wish it was just my mood.)
Even though it has been 7 months since the surgery, the head incision area is itchy. It's hard to express, but it's not a tickling feeling on the outside, but rather a tickling feeling on the inside of the skin. It really drives people crazy.. hahaha
They said they pull the periosteum upward and suture it to prevent sagging cheeks, but I feel like the inside of my cheek area is constantly being pulled, and when I make a frowning expression, the pulling feeling gets worse to the point where it hurts.
But instead of preventing sagging cheeks, I look older when I look in the mirror and my face is pulled...
It's been 7 months and I'm getting anxious because it's still like this...
As I keep writing, the more I want to say, the longer the post becomes.
Whether it's cheekbone surgery or a face lift, scalp incisions are necessary. I hope my experience can be a reference for those considering it.
Next, I will write a review about the consultation I had at the hospital in April.
Thank you for reading this long post, and please leave a comment if you have any questions or an evaluation of sagging cheeks.
