Hi! I Just Want to Share my Personal Thought on Facial Contouring Surgery with You!

I proceeded Facial contouring in May this year and it’s been already 3 months!
What to/not to do before the surgery?
1. Deep and detailed research. You should contact as many hospitals and get as many recommendations from specialists as it’s even possible as everyone has his own perception of beauty and your target here is to find the one that thinks in the same direction with you!
2. Don’t hesitate to contact people who already got surgery. I’ve been chatting with so many people from so many countries and could realize that the best way to receive legit and honest reviews is to communicate with real patients. I’m talking here about both satisfied and not, as you can understand more pros and cons on one or another surgeon.
3. Agents are good but you can also plan your entire trip yourself. It took me around 3 months to find a surgeon, book hotel, buy tickets and find out general things about how to live as a foreigner in Seoul. The most difficult part for me was food. Since after the surgery I had to eat only soft/soups (most soups there were quite spicy for me) I almost always ate only at 1 restaurant but if you are ok with rice porridge (there are tons of different kinds, I don’t personally like rice) you’ll probably face no problems.
4. Another tip was advised by one girl from forum, try to decrease the amount of salt and sugar at least a month before as it helps to have less swelling. I’m not sure though about if it really workable but I wasn’t that swollen so far.
What would the recovery be like?
1. Get ready that the first few days or even a week are gonna be brutal. Although, pain was minimal for me discomfort was something that required lot of time to get accustomed to.
2. My swelling decreased a bit by week 1 but after stitches removal on week 2 it became even worse. But that was the last “peak” and ever since it became only better and better.
3. Eating was my issue no 1 but I found a solution. Since I’m not rice-tofu-eggs eater and really like sweets I drank a lot of smoothies. They also contribute to getting rid of swelling faster, because they are cold.
So, for my current situation I still can’t fully open my mouth or eat something solid. As for my result I’m not 100 sure that I’m satisfied. Although, swelling wasn’t wild from cheeks it doesn’t go away fast enough. Plus my chin is a bit numb. I know it’s kind of normal but still it bothers me.
I’ll upload some of my pics before and my current result as well.

I think time flies really fast. I recently got lips fillers to make them look a little juicier. Swelling from cheeks is all gone. Forgot to mention, I also got rhinoplasty and really like how my nose came out. By about month 4 my mouth opened a bit wider and now I think it’s fully back to normal. I eat normal food from maybe last month, yesterday tried to bite an apple without cutting it and feel great.
The comparison between before and after on pics is amazing! Although, I don’t look totally different but for sure way more beautiful. Very thankful to my surgeon!
