Suffered a Lot, but It Definitely Worth It. Sincerely Thankful to Dr.Oh Myungjune for Great Results!

WORTH IT
Hey everyone! I proceeded my first ever plastic surgery! I can’t say that my experience was easy or smooth but the result I got definitely worth it! To be honest, I didn’t know which procedure I needed from the very beginning and wasn’t sure with whom I want to proceed it, so in my list were 2 places – TL and REGEN.
I knew my main issue – too prolonged chin and asymmetrical face. When I was at TL, I was suggested to get a jaw surgery done but at REGEN Dr.Oh recommended to proceed two-jaw instead. On our first consultation, he said that the bone can be reduced by 20mm if I proceed two-jaw, which whould make my face look way more symmetrical. But if I proceed jaw surgery only, there would be lot of limitations. So, I ended up with REGEN and Dr.Oh. After our consultation about a week was needed for a facebow and wafer making, once everything was ready I came back for final pre-op consultation and design. The same day were installed wires on my teeth. The surgery was scheduled the followed day.
I have no idea how the surgery went but when I woke up, I felt terrible, with headache and pain and tightens inside my mouth already with wafer and tied with rubber bands through early installed wires teeth. The first night was the worst… Well, the second perhaps wasn’t any easier, to be honest. By the time I was discharged, swelling and bruising reached the peak. Few days after I was told to come for a followup. On day 7 everything hurt so much that even painkillers didn’t help. I tried to bear but couldn’t and came back to REGEN, to see if everything was ok. I thought, maybe it was because of the rubber bands were too tight, so I asked to loosen them a bit. Hopefully, everything was alright, just my pain level was too low. The next follow up was supposed to be on day 14 but I couldn’t come and asked if it’s possible to proceed everything on day 12, for which was said that my healing as well as recovery process didn’t go that good, so was advised to come even later – 15 days after the surgery. That day stitches were removed and I also was instructed hot to change rubber bands myself, which is actually a self-tie.
The next day after stitches removal swelling became even worse and I also had terrible pain. Went to the clinic again, but everything was fine. A month after had to come back with my wafer, but missed that follow up again. Moreover, I broke the wafer, so there was nothing to bring. On my after a month consultation with Dr.Oh he explained my plan for self-tie for the next 2 months after which I came for my final follow up. Everything healed by now and wires were removed.
I had to eat special food for more than 1 month but now I’m trying to eat everything little by little. So far, it wasn’t an easy way for me at all, but I’m glad I could bear everything and beyond satisfied how the result came out.

So, my 7 months after the surgery update. Truly speaking it was the most difficult experience ever. I worried a lot about my results, about the recovery etc. but hopefully everything turned out great. I do feel great and if someone asks me like would I proceed the surgery if I knew before that it's gonna so difficult? Well, definitely yes! I think the result looks great and it worth few months to suffer :)

Dr. Oh is the worst doctor in the world ! Please run don’t walk! He ruins people’s faces and he took 35,000 dollars from me and my partner and ruined our faces I have severe migraines and electrical shocks

I just checked the Korean association of plastic surgeons and it looks like Dr. oh and dr. Lee are both suspended ! Anyone can go to the website and check his credentials! http://prskorea.co.kr/English/mobile/index.asp
I can’t believe he is still operating his hospital and he is suspended
How dangerous

So, why couldn't you do it before going to him? Anyways, I saw your pics and I personally think you got a good result, the rest is your opinion.

Oh God I'm so tired of this doll look don't you people know you are all starting to look the same! You be standing next to several other girls one-day at traffic light and see your own face looking back at you because they also had surgery for doll look.

So, don't look if you are so "tired". I don't really care what people think as I got what I wanted and YES - I'm happy and satisfied.

I don’t look good at all! I didn’t know to check the website to find out he’s suspended. I have severe medical conditions now including choking, abnormally narrow airway, obstructive sleep apnea, mood stuck in my mouth , my upper and lower jaws were abnormally moved too backward , I have severe neck swelling which is actually just my lymph nodes exposed from him illegally cutting my jaw without my consent

Hi how is your jaw now ? How much can you open it?
Dr Oh wouldn’t allow me to start exercises until 3.5 months later so I have a limited mouth opening , and tightness and numbness
Since then for 6 months I have severe neck swelling
I think he has moved your jaw too backward
.
Dr. oh moved my jaws severely backward and compressed my airway and now I have severe obstructive sleep apnea And need a cpap machine at night and need a revision surgery
I have told SUYEN that I have this severe medical condition and so Dr. Oh is aware but he has not taken any responsibility, the last time I spoke to him was 4 months ago when he yelled at me on the phone when I asked for a refund he said what are you sending me? Send me double what you paid ! And he hung up
How was your aftercare?
You should get a sleep study to check for sleep apnea too because unnoticed it will lead to heart attack diabetes stroke car accidents to which I am at risk for now
Please get checked

Hello :)

Can't believe it's been an entire year! So, I proceeded a two-jaw with Dr. Myung June Oh from Regen plastic surgery. I've received the same questions from several ppl if I like the result and how I feel so far. So, I think if I like the result or not you can see from my post-op pics. In case if it's still not obvious for someone - YES, I'm very satisfied with everything! My recovery is done and I also feel great!

Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds like it was a difficult recovery, but worth it for those results.
