Before the surgery, my cheekbones and chin looked very distracting and ugly. In particular, the photos taken by others always made me look shockingly ugly (my broad face), so after thinking about it for several years, I decided to have surgery.
My body is slim and I am young, so I was confident that I could lift even if it was still saggy. I would be happy if I didn't have a complex, and I would have more confidence and be able to tolerate a little sagging.
But after the surgery, my thoughts changed. Since the bone that supported the cheekbones has disappeared, the front cheekbones appear more protruding and the nasolabial folds have become deeper. By reducing the tip of my square jaw, my face became smaller, but my double chin and profile became more rounded. Because of the sagging skin and bumpy facial curves, he looks like he's in his 20s or 30s. It's not just that I'm sagging because I'm old, it's that it looks a bit ugly.
Now I miss the spiky but sharp-looking, firm-looking face I used to have. In the photo, it looks even narrower because it is 2D, but I found out after the surgery that the photo is not my actual appearance. The photo after contour surgery looks better because the face has become smaller, but in reality, the face looks saggy.
If you gain something, you are sure to lose it with contour surgery, and you think you can handle it, but when you actually go through it, you realize how weak you are.
I feel like I was short-thinking in thinking that an angular and wide face = ugly. I could have covered it up with makeup and hairstyle, and it would have been nice if I had changed my mind and thought I had personality.
There were people who liked this angular face and complimented me, but things ended up like this because of greed. I wish I could use this as an opportunity to be less obsessed with my appearance...
It feels like the before and after photos below.
