Face is asymmetrical after jaw, chin & cheekbone reduction

ORIGINAL POST

Dr. Choi at TL Plastic Surgery in Korea Ruined my Face.

I got v-line surgery at TL Plastic Surgery (jaw, chin, cheekbone reduction). Dr. Choi made a fatal mistake. He ended up shaving the right side of my face more than the left side and now my face is asymmetrical. How can he say he did his best to be symmetrical after he shaved the smaller side more? Now the left side of my face looks bigger than my right side. Dr. Choi made a mistake and did not even apologize. The director emailed me saying he will be able to perform revision surgery in about one or two months later. It has already been months since the initial surgery was performed. They are very unprofessional.

Need before and after pics please...
ahhh I'm sorry :( thanks for sharing with us.
Hey he ruined my face too. You aren’t alone. Please message me.
Thank you so much for sharing such a bitter but extremely valuable experience! I’m thinking about V-Line too and had 2 clinics in mind. I’ve seen some really good reviews on TL but one girl from Purse Forum warned me, saying that most of them are either fake or posted by their staff and that their pics are photoshopped. Now I definitely won’t go there and your story was very helpful for me! The second surgeon I really liked is Dr. Oh from REGEN. I’ve been contacting some girls who performed bone shaving surgeries with him and so far, most of them are beyond satisfied, saying how experienced he is, I think he’d be a better choice for me… Thank you again so much for sharing!
I had chin and jaw surgery with Dr Choi at TL with implants. Both chin and jaw were very asymmetrical after surgery. He is always so rushed and I feel his efforts were 'slap-dash that'll do'. When I complained to the clinic about the crookedness he appeared very indignant bordering on angry and he said "I can't do any more". Luckily there was another surgeon at his clinic who took the time to do an improved revision on the chin free of charge. I still have the asymmetry with the jaw. I will say though that the staff at TL Clinic are actually lovely and were incredibly helpful.
