My concerns were nasolabial folds and facial sagging. After gaining and then rapidly losing weight, my face became noticeably saggy.
• Consultation Experience
I’d like to briefly share my progress from days 1 to 7 after the Dual Deep Plane Full Face Lift and Double Chin Muscle Tightening surgeries.
I had the surgeries performed by Dr. Hyunjun Yoon at HERSHE Plastic Surgery.
• Surgical Outcome
Day 1 — Everything felt hectic. I was in some pain that first day, so I took medication and slept sitting up.
Day 2 — I went to the clinic for disinfection and to have the incision under my chin sutured. I had some facial bruising, but perhaps because I slept sitting up,
it was not too severe for me. There was some swelling, but I was okay.
Day 3 — I felt much more comfortable after the facial bandage was removed. I had only been eating porridge because I couldn’t open my mouth very well, haha.
I think I’ll be able to eat more comfortably now, and the pain has eased somewhat. The bruising around my neck is becoming a little more noticeable,
haha, but everything else is fine. I was also glad that I could shower.
Day 4 — The pain seems to be gradually easing, and the swelling has also improved a little. I’ve started using warm compresses, and things feel okay.
Day 5 — As the days pass, the pain is improving and the pulling sensation seems to be gradually decreasing.
The bruising is spreading, but it does not seem to be getting worse; it feels like part of the recovery. I’m diligently using warm compresses.
Day 6 — I was a little nervous because it was the day of my clinic visit. The facial swelling seems to have improved further, the bruising has subsided considerably, and the pain is no longer as strong.
At the clinic, some of my stitches were removed and I received care to help with the swelling before returning home.
I felt more comfortable after the stitches under my chin were removed, and I’m happy to see a V-line taking shape, haha.
It was interesting to see the changes in my face day by day. I’m very satisfied to see the nasolabial folds and sagging in the lower face that concerned me before surgery gradually improving.
