-Hospital reviews (Please keep in mind the author's opinions!)
Advantages
1. Since we operate a YouTube channel, there is less need to go to Seoul in person to check questions. (Still, if there is something you want to know for sure, make a note of what questions to ask and take it with you)
2 . Most of the time, I will be spending time with the manager, and I felt like this person had a lot of experience during the consultation because he was good at pointing out the key points that many people were worried about.
3. As someone who lives in the countryside, I thought it was more reliable to get surgery in Seoul, and I thought it was nice that everyone treated me kindly during the examination and various pre-surgery tasks.
Disadvantages
1. Because it is a hospital located in the center of Seoul, even if a reservation was made, there were often delays during consultations and post-surgery progress checks (up to over an hour). 2. A big burden to go to the hospital in Seoul/Gyeonggi or nearby areas
. It may not be possible, but if it is a bit far away, it can be difficult in terms of time and travel costs. (I used intercity buses and subways, and the transportation cost was 900,000 won for the first year.)
- Surgery review
1. Because I had a serious complex about my appearance, I entered the operating room half nervous and half happy on the day of the surgery.
2. After the surgery, I was hospitalized for a day. I fainted and woke up repeatedly, and I didn't eat anything, so this was the most difficult and drained my mental power.
3. I had to sleep sitting down for a while, and I had to eat water, drinks, and porridge for 4 weeks, but I lost a lot of weight and saw the effect of the diet. Killing two birds with one stone
4. I have to practice opening my mouth after taking off the compression bandage, but I remember this being painful and difficult.
5. I mainly ate porridge until the 60th day after surgery, and after that, I started with soft foods.
6. I started braces in September 2022 according to the doctor's diagnosis that braces could be done after surgery, but it seemed like the two months were difficult because my teeth were sore even after braces.
7. Half a year after the surgery, a lot of the swelling went down, and I heard a lot from people around me that my appearance had changed a lot.
8. The biggest experience I felt after the surgery was when I entered the 9th month. After the surgery, my face, which I thought was too deep in my chin, started to look more natural, and my chin did not stand out even after I styled it, so my satisfaction with the surgery was maxed out. hmm.
9. It has been 1 year and 2 months since the surgery, and the biggest change is that my mindset has changed. Unlike in the past, the habit of walking around with my mouth closed with my upper and lower teeth slightly open to hide my chin has disappeared, and I have also developed a hobby for decorating, such as styling my hair and clothes.
Lastly, I am now satisfied with my current facial shape, and my mindset has changed quite positively, so my overall quality of life has improved.
