It's been 2 months since I did 3 types of contouring surgery. Facts that the Internet or places like this do not tell you about the surgery when you search for surgery 1) You can return to your daily life a week after surgery: This is really just a lie. Even for a week, I was a loaf of bread, and I couldn't even eat properly. It's actually been 2 months now, but I can't eat meat well. I couldn't even open my mouth properly, so I couldn't even dream of a hamburger. And I hate the feeling of a foreign body (especially in the front chin area). It feels like I'm wearing dentures for 365 days. And when I smile, the shape of my mouth is strange, so I like to laugh, but I cover my mouth and laugh. 2) Swelling: Even though it's been 2 months, there is swelling on the side of the lip (especially severe in the morning).

I think it's because I have good conditions for surgery. If I had to do it again: never. It's so hard, it costs money, and I want to buy it and go through all these hardships. no matter how good the results are. Some of the things I didn't understand as a Korean-American: It was actually strange to consult with a non-medical person, not a doctor. In the case of the United States, it is against the law to consult with a non-medical person, no matter how small the surgery. Actually, the doctor who operated on me was very kind, but I don't think he consulted for even 5 minutes.
