[Surgery Review] Male Double Jaw surgery! Post OP 66 Days

 


Motivation of the surgery



I have under bite and asymmetry with a long face which makes me feel miserable. I also cared a lot about my appearance that want to improve it through braces. But I found out that it can't be improved only with braces... So I decided to think that only double jaw surgery was the answer.

Ever since I was a child, I had a habit of holding my chin with one hand, and a bad habit of biting my nails. As I get older, I don't like the long face and lantern jaw since when I look at my face from the side… aigh I really don’t like it. Furthermore, due to my jaw shape, I think my pronunciation used to leak.

My face is so swollen, I have a lot of phlegm, and I have a tube in my nose and I can hardly breathe. I have a headache and how long should I stay in this condition? It's a pain that I can sleep after recovering from the anesthesia

My nose was still stuffy but it becomes better than the first day. My throat hurts so much that I couldn't sleep well because I drank water once an hour. I felt like my face is puffier than the second day. I'm also trying to open my mouth wider. I hope I get better soon.

I have been discharged from the hospital and taking a rest after releasing the compression band. I'm feeling pretty better than 1 or 2 days ago. The face is equally swollen, but I am satisfied because I can easily breathing than before.

As the days go by, I feel that my swelling is going down. Maybe that's why I'm taking more walks than before. Haha,

Now that my swelling has gone down, I'm getting greedy about eating. I can't eat a lot of food, but if I look up, there are quite a few. However, I am worried that asymmetry will not go away because the swelling goes out unevenly.

For sure, the swelling has gone down a lot. I don't know when, but those days swelling is not bothering me is not that much. I used to wear a mask after surgery, but now I can take it off. I feel confident. I am thinking about going out without a mask today.

Today is the stitch removal day. I was kind of worry about it since I heard that remove the stich will be painful. Frankly, it wasn’t that painful. After that I get deswelling laser treatment and arrived at home. Finally I feel refresh that I can brush my teeth! Ya!

I decided to try ramen today. However, I bought a mini mortar that can crush ramen because I can't chew it. It's my first time ramen like this, but I'm looking forward to it.

Time flies so fast that I feel much less swollen than before. Maybe that's why I look at the mirror more often these days.^^

 


Post OP 22 Days

I've been out all day today. I was happy to hear that my friends told me that I look much natural after losing a lot of swelling. I was thinking about when all this swelling will be reduced.. I'm looking forward to next week

I'm thinking of making porridge today. I think it would be fun to try it once since I used to  buy it until now. I am so sad that there are only a few things to eat.

My daily routine has become too comfortable. It felt like it wasn't my chin right after the surgery, but now it's so natural. I'm so satisfied. Haha, but I can never get used to with wafer. I hope there will be a day when I can live without a wafer.

I've been going out a lot lately. After the surgery, walking was only thing I can do, but these days, I go hang out with my friend more often a lot. It was so sad to walk alone.

 


Post OP 30 Days

There are more things to eat besides porridge now. I am thinking about what to eat. I am so exciting to think about what kind of food I should eat!

 


Post OP 33 Days

I couldn't eat any food a month from internet cafe, but I'm so happy that I can eat all kinds of ramen. I didn't know eating can provide me all the happiness. I'm realizing the importance of eating in my life!

Because of the cold weather, I plan to stay indoors today. When I look up old pictures by chance and look at them, I am amazed at how I look so different after surgery.

I am scared to go out because of Coronavirus. There is no safe place anywhere you go. As expected, it is dangerous outside the house.

I spent time in the reading room today. It was hard to start studying, but it’s getting interest. I can drink in a month and I can eat all kinds of food, so I am really looking forward to it.
