I went there wondering if it was a protruding mouth or a protruding chin or not, but like at the hospital I went to earlier, the director just looked at me and told me that I had a protruding mouth and a well-developed chin.
The atmosphere at the hospital was cozy, but he took a picture of the estimate with a Canon camera and told me to look at him and then told me there would be a difference of a few millimeters. I had doubts about whether it was accurate, but I think it was because he said it with confidence. The consultation fee is free, but when you have a new consultation after surgery, you will receive another dental examination and internal medical examination and be discussed in detail.
If I go to another hospital, 4 out of 5 places will ask me to have double jaw surgery, and he confidently says that it is possible without double jaw surgery. It was nice to see many similar cases with before and after photos. I was dissatisfied with the angle of my teeth, saggy cheeks, protruding chin, asymmetry, and profile, but he did a good job of capturing the areas I felt I was lacking. The dentist said that they were lenient in straightening the teeth and told me not to be too obsessed with the angle of the teeth since they are still at normal angles. I was
hospitalized for a total of 1 night and 2 days and was told that the progress would be seen on the 5th, 14th (removal of stitches), and 6th week after the surgery. It was a real advantage that there were no blood pockets and the recovery was faster compared to the orthodontic jaw, but I was worried because they said I needed tooth extraction. (At the previous hospital, I was recommended a orthodontic jaw + V-line that did not require tooth extraction or correction.) 1. Protruding mouth (ASO) + chin
tip Retraction surgery (including T osteotomy): 1.5 hours
- Protrusion KRW 12 million
- T osteotomy KRW 1 million
2. Cheekbones: Additional 50 minutes per side
- KRW 4 million
3. Reverse square jaw surgery: Additional 1 hour
- KRW 4.4 million
The cost is the same if you do it individually, but if you do it all at once, it is 19.5 million won including VAT. It seems to be more expensive than orthodontic treatment. It's the price of a car.. haha. But I heard that depending on whether it's correction or prosthetics, dental treatment costs millions of won more. It seems like the director's pride is reflected in the
cost. The doctor seems to have quick recovery without blood pockets and is skilled in aesthetics, but due to cost issues and the need for a tooth extraction, I am planning to go to other places for consultation first!
