hello!
I have malocclusion and facial asymmetry, but due to various circumstances, I only had correction without two jaws a few years ago. I met the most trustworthy director and had a front chin (contouring surgery) for two jaw surgery and asymmetry, and it's been a month now!!
I am revealing my surgery review in the hope that someone will read my post ahead of surgery and find it helpful! I hope everyone is brave.!! go for it !
<Surgery Day>


I fell asleep early after working the day before, but I was nervous and woke up at 4:00 am.. I slept another 2 hours and leisurely prepared myself, so I took a bag with an iPad reading table... I mistook it for 30 minutes. Fortunately, I arrived at 10:02 and was guided.
I went to get the surgery alone because I was told that I could go to the surgery alone without a surgical guardian!! I was guided to a private hospital room, unpacked, undressed, and waited there.
The room was very clean and cozy, and it was equipped with everything, such as a neck pillow, a humidifier, toilet paper, a cushion, and an electric heater. good..!b
I was informed of the details of the surgery, filled out the consent form, and finally had an interview with the director and entered the operating room. My heart pounding... I was so scared, but as soon as I lay down on the operating table, the nurses and the anesthesiologist prepared this and that, I'll sleep soundly and wake up~~ I fell asleep in 3 seconds? ..
When I woke up, I was in a hospital room and the time was around 14:40.
Patient, I heard that you can't sleep now.
At this time, I was surprised that all the nurses and doctors came, but on the other hand, I was very reassured... They gave me vitamin injections for nutritional supplementation after surgery.
Also, they keep coming to give me injections, such as antibiotics, but when I give them multiple injections, I get really sick.... The nurse told me to breathe deeply, so I took a deep breath.
I'm lying down again, but I'm too sleepy and I can't breathe
I thought I was going to die, so I breathed hard according to the sound of my breathing in the hospital room.. When will I really be able to sleep? Dozens of times.
It was around 18:00.. I lost control and thought that I would rather die... Regrets came over me... Rather than being sick, the biggest reason was that I couldn't sleep and my stomach was pounding. under.....
The nurse came every hour (if you call? she will come right away.) She took good care of me when I was sick and weak.. Angel ㅠㅠ
Pillows and donut cushions so you can fall asleep when you come around 19:10?? you went
I felt relieved at the thought that I could sleep now.
Director Lee Seok-jae also said that the amount of bleeding was small and that the surgery went well.
Today would be the hardest, but he said that he would just endure today and see you tomorrow. .Infinite trust..
All night long, the on-duty nurse pulses, breathes, changes urine, ice packs, etc.
They took good care of me ㅠ I couldn't say thank you because I was too low on energy ㅠ Thank you. Haha For 10 to 20 minutes, I fell asleep and woke up and went through the day. It's terrible...really...
<Surgery Day 2>
On the morning of the second day, I waited for the morning to come because I could remove the urine line and the device caught in my nose. Was it around 6? I removed the device and walked to the bathroom on my own. I felt something tingling and stinging, but it felt much easier when something came off my body.
He said that if the director comes at 10 o'clock, he will take the blood out of his mouth, so I was awake waiting for the director.
Before seeing the director, I moved to the laser room to receive laser treatment.
I received treatment while sitting in the warm laser beam and looking at my cell phone.
The director came and removed the pain and moved the chin along the wafer, but at this time it hurt so much..... Once in the hospital room, if you put an ice pack on it again, it seems to have healed. ㅠㅠ It hurts so much
The nurse came and gave me New Care and disinfectant, and said it was okay to take it after 11:00, so I woke up at 11 and ate New Care. It was nauseating, so I burped and slept.
I really wanted to exercise and walk around, but I had no energy, so I just lay down.
I went to the bathroom, lay down, walked a bit, lay down, and in the afternoon I heard they were taking X-rays, so I bit my jaw again, and this time it hurt too. I told you, and he said let's try again tomorrow morning. ㅠ Goodbye!!
Last night, the nurse on duty took care of me diligently and brought me lots of ice packs from time to time to keep me from pouring it at night. I was distracted from sleeping, but it was so cool and I was grateful..
<Surgery Day 3>
It was 5:00 in the morning, I opened the curtains and slept, but the room was bright and I woke up. I felt a sudden recovery. I also felt refreshed and refreshed at the thought of leaving the hospital. I went around the hospital at dawn and was grateful for something worth living for. However, the runny nose was so thick that it was uncomfortable. I also had a lot of phlegm. After the last laser treatment, I met the director for the last time and matched the position of the wafer chin! It was fortunate that the pain was reduced by half compared to yesterday. It still hurts, but he told me to practice 3-4 times an hour, and he said that I could be discharged now.
After preparing for discharge, I went to the pharmacy, got the medicine (the pharmacy is located a little lower than Kimbap Heaven) and took a taxi home.
As soon as I got out of the taxi, I went to the convenience store and bought Chocoemon fruit juice.
As soon as I got home, I took a cold shower, washed my hair, and washed my face.
(Keep your head down as much as possible!) I changed my clothes and drank half a chocolate lemon juice and a glass of water. It was so cool and the house was the best.. I'm happy!
I ate New Care at the hospital in the morning and I plan to eat another one in the evening. After lying down at home, I went to the mart and bought a drink, took medicine in the evening, and slept. As expected, sleeping at home is the best ㅜㅜ I woke up once in the middle between 23:00 and 1:00 and passed out between 1:00 and 6:00.
<Surgery Day 4>
I liked the humidifier in the hospital room before I was discharged, so I ordered it through Coupang in advance. A humidifier is a must-have item..!!
I woke up at 6 o'clock, ate two New Cares, took medicine, and went for a walk from 7 to 8 o'clock. After coming home, I lay down again, drank water, and at 13:30 I took 3 pumpkin juice and medicine. I drove to the suburbs for a while, stopped by the mart, and then came home.
What I ate: 2 cups of New Care, 1/2 cup of mango juice, 3 pumpkin juice
<Surgery Day 5>
Yesterday I was so tired that I fell asleep, but after sitting down and sleeping, my body gradually came down and my neck was in a bent position, and I heard a sound in my throat, and I had a sore throat. . Still, I had to live, so I ate two New Cares and medicine, and lay down. It was so painful to have a lump in my throat. I had to stop by the optician for a while, so I went out. It was too hot.. I walked carefully so as not to hurt my neck.. Do I really need to get manual treatment? I had jaw surgery ㅠㅠ I was very, very worried. It's so cool.
I woke up after a while, and then a friend came and put a paste on my neck and wing bones. I think I will live..ㅠ Be careful. ㅠ. Today, the scab on my nose was hardened, so I took off the things at the entrance... I don't think I should take it off, but when I took it off, my nose was pierced. I bought another bottle of sauce and should use it for gargling!!
4 New Care 1 cup Grape Juice 1 Juicy Watermelon Juice
<Surgery Day 6>
I woke up in the morning and stretched my broken neck yesterday.. I ate one New Care and some medicine haha After taking a warm shower and lying down, I was so hungry at 12 o'clock that I went to Paris Baguette and bought castella and milk. I'm going backㅠ I can't even move... ㅠㅠ It tastes heavenly..... I melted two of them with milk and ate it. ... I took medicine with 2 pumpkin juice, took a warm shower and took a nap. I started to see a yellow bruise from yesterday, but today it seems to be more yellow haha But the nose is getting more and more pierced and the throat is getting better because I just lay down and sleep. .!..
I came out of the house, I didn't know when I was at home, but it was really hot outside ㅠㅠ I bought a hat and went around, but I ran out of energy ㅠㅠ I came home right away.. I was so hungry when I came home, so I boiled a real soybean paste. I swallowed one whole ㅠ ㅠ I can't see anything because I want to live. After taking the medicine, I looked at the clock and it was 21 o'clock. (The one given by the hospital was also useful, but I went there because I wanted to buy a warm compress.) I heated it in the microwave for 3 minutes and applied it to my face. Strong pressure on your face before going to bed for the last 3 days? I felt the same and it hurt, but I felt less relieved after using a warm compress haha I should stop sleeping!
1 New Care 2 Pumpkin Juice 2 Castella 1 Cup Milk 1 Green Grape Juice 1 Real Paste
<Surgery Day 7>
I woke up around 6:30, took New Care and Pumpkin Juice, and went for a walk. I walked along the riverside for about an hour, and on the way back from the walk, I stopped by E-Mart convenience store and bought Danish Plain Yogurt. I drank yogurt, took a hot shower, and lay down again. After rolling around, I was so hungry at 12 o'clock that I rolled the castella left over from yesterday with milk and ate it. It's so delicious..... If it's all well soon, I'm going to eat anything. I fell asleep after rolling around without doing anything special.. I started watching the drama, but the time seems to go very well. Rest once!

First outpatient visit in week 1 <Surgery day 8)

'
It snowed early in the morning. I was nervous because it was the first hospital I went to after surgery. I don't know what kind of treatment I'm going to see, but I have a good feeling... I wanted to get the stitches out quickly. . (That's next week ㅠㅠ) It started out quickly because it rained, but I arrived at Yugugang Hospital earlier than expected. I was at the hospital for 2 nights and 3 days a week ago.. It feels familiar.. It seems that there were a lot of people today!.. I see the nurses who took good care of me when I was sick.. Thank you. The chiefs always welcome me.. haha First of all, I received swelling care first. After warming up for about 20 minutes, I saw the director. hello!! He checked my mouth, disinfected it, and moved my jaw again saying that the wafer didn't fit. It hurt so much. I thought it was worth living, but he even gave me a rubber band saying I had to bite the wafer well. It was more painful to bite the wafer.... I was exhausted when I came home and fell asleep early because I was exhausted from biting the wafer.
1st to 2nd week outpatient review <Surgery Day 15>


I bit into wafers for a week and now my jaw hurts a lot.
The first day I went to the outpatient, I was sick, and from the second day, I was slowly getting better.
And maybe because I bit hard, there were holes in 2 wafers haha I don't want reoperation....
It rains a lot because it is the rainy season. Except when it wasn't raining, I went to the mart around the house on the riverside of the park from time to time. I ate a lot of things that I could cut off because my eyes went back for a week... Thanks to that, the weight I lost came back to pre-surgery (-1kg compared to before surgery). Instead of gargling baby toothbrush, brushing your teeth was really hard! I seem to have worked harder than before the surgery haha The swelling is getting better every day and the bruises are almost disappearing haha I sleep very well lying down. Eating well and sleeping well is the best!!
Today, I went to the hospital and had stitches removed.! I was very nervous because the stitch removal hurt in the review, but removing the stitches was less painful than I thought... It's nothing compared to surgery!! ㅜㅜㅎ It seems that every time I cut it, it smells a bit...?
Also, when I heard from the director that the wafers didn't fit well, but thanks to the rubber bands I put them in, I felt better... He said he would put them on for another week and take them off next week. He did. Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter... I feel like something is coming to an end, I feel like I've passed the hurdle.
I was hungry, so when I got home, I rolled up seaweed soup and swallowed it well haha. Good.
Now that the stitches are gone, I think the swelling will go away well. I'll eat hard for another week, take a walk, and get along well!!!
<Week 3>



There was swelling in the 3rd week, but it didn't show at all when I wore the mask, so I went back to my hometown.
I went home and ate fruit and cold noodles, met friends, ate together, and drank cheesecake and coffee. I heard a lot that she had a cute impression haha, and everyone told me that the surgery went well. The swelling feels swollen when you wake up and subsides at night! lol
I don't get tired of food that I eat comfortably because I eat it by rolling bread and soup with various sides. Haha Since I'm at home without work, I eat frequently whenever I'm hungry, so my weight doesn't change much from before the surgery (-2kg). Because I eat well, I feel energized, move around a lot, and seem to recover quickly.
In the 3rd week, a lot of pimples suddenly appeared on the skin around the lips and spread to the cheeks and forehead. I took dermatology medicine prescribed for 5 days, but there was no effect.
The 3rd week laser treatment was on Thursday (the rubber band was removed on Thursday), and the rubber band burst before that. I visited on Monday, changed the rubber band to a new one, and received 3 weeks of laser treatment in advance. !! He changed the rubber band to a stronger rubber band. (I was going to put the rubber band on myself, but I couldn't put it on well. I tried it with the nurse and it didn't work, so he put it on with a great rubber band that I would keep wearing.)


<Week 4> 3rd outpatient treatment
I returned to work from yesterday and went to work today and left early to go to the hospital. Today was the first month since the surgery, so it was the day I decided to see the doctor and wear braces. Haha I visited the hospital, took X-rays, etc., removed the retainer and threw it in the trash!!
Before attaching the device, I removed the existing retainer, etc., and the orthodontist came and attached the orthodontic device. She said first she only had the lower teeth implanted and then the upper teeth were placed after 2 weeks. It's been a long time since I've done the correction, but it's called ClippyC correction, and it's attached faster than the correction I did in the past? It seems to have been done, and it seems to be much more aesthetic and better. lol
Lastly, after examining the screw on the gum, it was swollen on the gum side and it seemed that it could be inflamed, so he removed it. ㅠ
Anesthesia? ointment? was applied to the upper gums, and the gums of the lower teeth were just pulled out! I didn't get very sick or anything like that.
The screw in the gum of the lower teeth was a bit painful and had a strong pulling sensation. The screw on the gum of the upper teeth did not feel painful and there was a pulling feeling. It seems that there is no pain because the sensation in the upper jaw has not returned yet.
I didn't even feel any pain when I came home without it!
For the time being, it seems that you should refrain from eating spicy and salty foods so as not to irritate the space where the screws are removed. Haha (It is said that the number of screws left in the mouth is now 4 minus 4 out of 8.)
And since he kept opening his mouth while watching the medical treatment, he said that his left jaw muscle hurt, so he would connect him to the director who would look after his jaw muscles!!
It's a muscle that I haven't used, so I guess it still needs a lot of time to get used to. There are many ways to stretch the jaw muscles on YouTube, but I need to practice while watching them.
After the orthodontic treatment, I went to see Dr. Lee Seok-jae, who performed the orthognathic surgery.
Ygugang was able to see the dentist right away, so he looked at the progress of the surgery and the surgery went well. He said that because he was straining his mouth, he had wrinkles like walnuts on his chin and that his jaw muscles were tight. He said that if this happens, it's not very pretty, and he gave me a massage with warm water and told me to relax my mouth. !
Finally, I said thank you and left the hospital. The next treatment is to attach the upper teeth braces in 2 weeks!!
It seems that there is still about half of the swelling on my face, but I have to work hard and eat and not worry about it. 3 months will pass soon!!
