Hello !
I had a malocclusion , a protruding chin , and a slightly asymmetrical face shape. This became a complex and caused me a lot of stress .
So after thinking about it I chose double jaw surgery and first went for a consultation at Y Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The director clearly identified what I wanted and told me what kind of surgery I should do .
I also liked Dr. Seok jae Lee because he told me exactly what I needed and was curious about . More than anything , I felt confident in the director and director because they seemed confident in double jaw surgery.
So I decided to have double jaw surgery and square jaw surgery and made an appointment right away ..! I don’t regret my decision at this time !!
On the day of surgery
On the day of surgery, I wasn't nervous and just went into the operating room hoping it would be over quickly .
When I woke up after anesthesia , I was in a hospital room, and the nurse told me that I couldn't sleep for about 6 hours (?) because the anesthesia gas had to be removed !
There was no pain, but it was very difficult to breathe due to the swollen throat and blocked nose . I kept dozing off, so the anesthetic gas remained for a long time .
So I had a high fever , but the nurse continued to take care of me every hour, and I was really grateful. The director said it would get better after today ! Because you said
I worked hard to endure it with the thought, “ Let’s just hold on for today .”

Day 1
In the morning, I removed the pain reliever , urinary line , and hose from my nose , and it was definitely much more comfortable.
It's amazing how much better he gets in just one day . I feel like he loses energy when he lies down, so I take him for a little walk in the hallway .
I stayed on the sofa and drank an entire bottle of New Care ! Of course, the sore throat , pain , nasal congestion , and runny nose were still severe.
( I didn't suction my nose on purpose !! If you asked me to do it, you would have done it, but I heard it was only temporary ... so I just thought that not knowing is better ... )
Day 2
I was discharged from the hospital ! I definitely felt more at ease when I got home and my appetite improved , but the only thing I could eat was New Care ..!
There was no pain , but I had to take one pill at a time. I hated the discomfort and the feeling of not being able to brush my teeth .
I went for a walk for about 30 minutes, but the runny nose kept coming out , so I was embarrassed haha .. Take tissues with you ..
Day 3-4
On the 3rd and 4th day, the swelling reached its peak ..! It was so swollen that it hurt a little and everything was uncomfortable .
In particular , my lips were very swollen and torn , so I used a lot of Vaseline . After I applied it, it felt good, and I went for a walk for 30 minutes and moved as much as possible .
As expected , New Care was the best option for me to eat , and I applied hot packs and cold compresses and hoped that the swelling would go down .
Oh , and my throat didn't hurt, but my nose was a little swollen and the runny nose continued !

Day 5-6
The swelling went down a little , but only a little ... I couldn't eat properly at this time , so I lost my stamina .
Even a 10- minute walk is not enough ..! I tried anchovy noodles, but failed, so I'd rather I think it would be okay to just eat anchovy broth !!
Due to concerns about inflammation, I decided to focus on New Care and drinking as much as possible ! ( If I do this, I will regret it later .)

Day 7 ( First visit )
First visit ! After 30 minutes of swelling treatment , I showed my mouth to the director, but he didn't say anything .
I was given permission to brush my teeth + to eat without the wafer ! Just this The quality of life improves ... really ....
I didn't have an appetite, but I forced myself to eat it because I thought I might die like this .. This is how I live .. Really .. Make sure to eat it even if it's annoying and difficult .
( Recommended to grind 100 % Bonjuk !!)
Week 1
Pain : It hurt a little on the 3rd and 4th day , and other than that, there was often a tingling sensation around the mouth. It wasn't painful , but it was a little annoying .
Swelling : Peak on day 3-4 , then gradually subsides.
Face elasticity Band : When I sleep, it seems like I usually do it for an hour and an hour off , but the original rule is to take an hour and a 30- minute break . Poultice : cold compress until the 5th day , then hot compress.
Gargle : It's convenient to use a syringe
Food : Mainly liquids ... Using a syringe or sauce container was inconvenient , so it was more convenient to just drink from a paper or plastic cup .
Sleep : I sleep sitting up, but I often wake up in the early morning because my tailbone hurts .
Days 8 to 13
I felt like I was definitely alive compared to the first week . I could breathe through my nose , and I mainly ate soft tofu and porridge .
It's best when mixed with curry sauce or pasta sauce !! I ate a lot of Yoplait for dessert ...
It's definitely better to take out the wafer and eat it before brushing your teeth !! The swelling is gradually going down and there is no pain, but sometimes the stitches hurt when I laugh or eat !!
The swelling of my lips doesn't go away very well , so I need Vaseline !! Please apply it
I had diarrhea and hives as a side effect of antibiotics that I didn't know about , but the diarrhea problem was resolved with an anti- diarrheal medication , and the hives were gone before I knew it !!

Day 14 ( second visit )
On the day of pulling out the stitches ... when I actually pulled them out ... yes ... it hurt ... the other parts were fine , but the stitches on the philtrum and chin area ... felt like being stabbed with a knife in the injured area ...
But if you endure it, you'll get better soon It's much more comfortable when talking or eating ! I haven't received permission to write yet , but I'm satisfied with the stitch removal !
Week 2
Pain : No pain except when laughing out loud , but it hurt a little when I kept chewing the cheek flesh near my molars and wearing a wafer .
Swelling : I can see it gradually disappearing, especially at night .
Face elasticity Band : I did it at the beginning of the 2nd week and did very little.
Compress : Apply a little warm compress before going to bed … He hardly ever does this either.
Brushing teeth : Gently brush only the teeth, avoiding the gums as much as possible ... I'm still happy
Food : Soft and less spicy foods
Sleep : When will I lie down and sleep comfortably ?
This is my second week of Western Music review . Thank you for reading the long post !
If you have any questions , please leave a comment !!

Day 21 ( 3rd visit )
During my third visit , there was no treatment and I only received swelling treatment !! This time, I came back after receiving treatment while lying down comfortably :)


Days 21-27
I lived much more comfortably during the 3rd week !! First of all, I ate stew , rice , pasta , risotto , etc. It was very good !!
Of course, I still had time to write , so I just cut it and swallowed it ..!! The pain was intermittently a tingling sensation near my jaw , and the swelling is going down a lot !!
Of course, I didn't manage the swelling properly , so there was a bit of a plateau (?) , but my friends said it was going down little by little !!
So I thought it was easy haha. I 've been wearing makeup since the 3rd week ... and I've been taking pictures as well .
Since I have a square jaw and front chin, the facial line is really great ,, really ,,


Days 28-34
During the 4th week , I didn't have a visit to the hospital. The director had a seminar scheduled , so I decided to visit in April and get braces installed !
However, after hearing from my seniors that I would not be able to eat any more if I got braces, I thought it was a good thing haha.
During the 4th week, I kept going outside and having fun, but when I saw the friend I met during the 2nd week during the 4th week, he was shocked . He said that the swelling had gone down so much ..//
I feel good. I've been eating like it's been 3 weeks and the pain is stiff + tingling sometimes .
If I had to pick something inconvenient ...
1. If you eat outside, the food gets stuck between your teeth and gums . It feels a little uncomfortable. Be sure to go to the bathroom and gargle !!
2. The screw (?) in my gums is digging into my skin , so it hurts a bit , but it doesn’t really bother me.
3. They say that when you smile, your cheeks get tight ... but that's because I tend to laugh too loudly .
4. My pronunciation is still blurry. Especially when I talk to a stranger while wearing a wafer , they don't understand me well , so I don't order . ^^
Other than that , I didn't have any major inconveniences, and I've already gotten rid of not being able to write ^__^
I want to get braces quickly and masticate, and I want to get rid of the wafer !! But these days, every time I look in the mirror , I see the difference in myself and it's so amazing and makes me happy !!
The seniors who said that Western music is a race against time were right ... I also want to quickly bring a review of the car in 3 months ... 6 months !! Everyone, please be patient and wait !!
