Photo Updates
I'm now 11 days post op. I still feel numbness and swelling on the chin area. No pain but I still feel strain on the area. The docs hacent removed the taping to give my chin extra support until I have to leave korea.
4th Day Post Op
I just got out of my 4th checkup 4 days post op, and my chin (inside and out) is just really swollen right now. I can feel it swollen up to my lower lip. My bottom teeth also feel a bit tingly sometimes, but it's nothing bad.
Forward Sliding Genioplasty
Hi guys, I guess I'll start my review here. I consulted with many clinics in korea and decided to go with VIP Plastic Surgery. Together with forward genioplasty, I'm having Breast Augmentation, and Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty with Midface Augmentation. I'll have separate review on these.
During my initial consultation, I wanted to have many surgery at once coz I really didn't want to have another surgery in the future. I brought up breast augmentation, rib rhinoplasty, midface augmentation, genioplasty, zygoma reduction, blepharoplasty, and facial fat graft on the table during my consultation. Anyway, the doctor flat out told me I don't need all these surgeries, the most important ones he recommends for me is forward genioplasty, and rhinoplasty with midface, and sure breast augmentation because I really wanted it. He told me to recover from these surgery, the result might satisfy me enough to not even want other procedures I mentioned. And clearly, he said that I really don't need zygoma reduction and blepharoplasty. And if I decide, in the future I still want them, I can always have it done then. I feel a bit rejected at that time, but now that I'm thinking about it, I must have been out of my goudamn mind because recovering from just these 3 chosen procedure is extremely hard enough.
I'm currently 3 days post op. I think it's still too early to share before and after photos so I'll wait until 7 days for exactly one week to start with photo updates. But I'll share my experience so far for my chin augmentation, Genioplasty. My reviews for Breast Augmentation, and Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty with Midface Augmentation will be linked when available.
Right after waking up from general anesthesia up to 1st day post op:
I can't really feel pain, I felt pressure on my chin. But that's about it. VIP performs check up every morning, and they checked my stitches, cleanses it, and asked me to gargle some solution. The cleansing part was a bit uncomfy coz they probe the incision area with what seems like a cottonbud.
2nd day post op:
Second day is just like day 1 but with more swelling. My lips looked light i got a bit of lip filler. Cleansing was also uncomfy but you gotta do it to prevent infection.
3rd day post op:
Also not much different, except a lot more swelling. I do feel like the swelling is almost at its peak and is about to lay low from here on.
Btw, another thing I liked about VIP, is the free facial, swelling treatment, and hair wash they offer after the morning check up.
