WORTH IT
I had a Rhino & Chin Implant done by Dr. Yoo 3 weeks ago, and wanted to write a review on how AMAZING my results are so far!! The “after” picture was taken 10 days post op. I had pretty much zero bruising on my face (only yellowing around the eye bags) as you can see on the second picture, 3 days post op. Recovery on my nose was a piece of cake - pain was probably a 1 or 2. What did hurt the most was my chin which I would rate a 7 on pain. It was very manageable on meds, but could definitely feel them start to wear off by the 4th or 5th hour (I took 2 pills every 6 hours). It wasn’t pain I couldn’t tolerate, but definitely uncomfortable. I was in a 7 hour car ride home on day 2 and was just fine. Very difficult to eat, however. By the 6th day I felt much better from my chin. At 3 weeks post op, I can finally eat normal & had the burger I’ve been craving! Zero pain, only weird “zig zag” feeling on my chin every once in a while (almost like there’s a little bug crawling inside) which I imagine is due to the nerves reconnecting (my bottom lip won’t budge). I am soooo happy with my results so far, and can only imagine how beautiful the results will be by the 6th month post op. I 100% recommend Dr. Yoo & his staff (nurse Jessie in particular who calmed my nerves the morning of surgery!) and would do it all over again if I had to. It was worth every penny!!!!

Picture update

Just wanted to add a quick picture update! The before pic was taken Christmas Day 2017, surgery was December 2018, and this is now 6 months post op. I forget I got my chin done as it feels like my very own! It’s still a little sensitive when I touch certain parts but otherwise looks/feels great! My nose is also amazing, but having issues with breathing from my left nostril. Hoping it’s just swelling inside as the breathing fluctuates throughout the day but is mostly stuffed up :( Other than that, I am so happy with how it looks.
