It took me a very long time to decide on double jaw surgery. After a lot of hesitation and searching, what ultimately led me to choose the chief surgeon at One Percent Plastic Surgery was the consultation itself. Dr. Lim Jong-woo explained everything in detail, from the procedure to the recovery process, which gradually helped me organize my thoughts.
At first, most of the reviews I found were about female double jaw surgery, and there were relatively few cases for men, which made the whole idea feel unfamiliar and intimidating. However, during the consultation, both the chief surgeon and the manager carefully explained each step, from pre-surgery preparation to post-surgery recovery, which built trust.
I underwent double jaw surgery together with two contouring procedures: All-For-One square jaw and a bespoke mini V-line. On the day of surgery, I was very nervous, but the anesthesiologist and nurses kept checking on my condition and reassuring me, so I was able to go in feeling more at ease than expected.
Immediately after surgery, there was swelling and discomfort, as expected, but the nurses checked on me frequently day and night in the recovery room, so things passed without major issues. They also explained pain management and cleaning methods clearly, which made recovery at home manageable.
It has only been one week so far, so more time will be needed, but as the swelling gradually subsides, I can sense changes in my facial contours. People around me have mentioned that my recovery seems relatively smooth. Although it has not fully settled yet, based on the process so far, I feel comfortable with the decision. Above all, the thorough post-surgery care made the recovery feel less overwhelming.
I plan to continue orthodontic treatment and follow-up checkups, and based on my experience so far, I feel that I can trust this process. It was a decision made after long consideration, and at this point, I feel that it was the right choice ^^
