I am from the United States I had two-jaw and vline with tchin at Face Dental in July 2015. I went to Seoul for this surgery because I felt my jawline was heavy and wide, with a long, tall chin. My face was definitely elongated as well. These traits gave me a very masculine appearance that I found very unappealing. Before this surgery I was not exactly unattractive, but I was not pretty either.
I consulted with EverM and Face Dental when I arrived after my 12 hour plane ride. I did not feel comfortable with EverM and their quote was shockingly high (equivalency of 17 thousands US dollars). The consultant made a comment about my racial background (which I know they did not know any better, but it offended me), and they were pushing for surgeries that I DID NOT WANT, so I knew I was going to be very unhappy. The consultation was very fast with the doctor and I felt as if he was in a hurry. For those reasons, I decided right then and there not to give my face and business to EverM. At Face Dental, Dr. Lee took his time, explained to me what I should realistically expect, and made sure all of my questions were answered in full. The consultant negotiated with me a fair price. I knew that I had come to the right clinic. I was extremely nervous and Face Dental made sure I was comfortable.
It is nearly 8 months from surgery now. My verdict is my result is very natural, I have no issues and my jawline is narrower. Two jaw gave balance to my face that I previously did not have. I look a bit more feminine and I am constantly told that I am attractive now. I am told this without asking, people just feel like sharing it lol. The recovery at the first 3 weeks was definitely the hardest. I drooled constantly and my face was round and swollen. being in Korea in July was miserable with humidity so I do not recommend going at that time. The swelling from two jaw and vline lingered in my jawline and chin until about 6 months. If you are considering this surgery prepare for a long recovery of 6-7 months. DO NOT judge your results until 6 months has passed. Be emotionally prepared for your face to continue to change. Be emotionally prepared for a liquid diet until you can chew solid foods again. Also be prepared to lose quite a bit of weight.
Since the nerves in my face ran low, Dr. Lee could not do a traditional vline. I feel my jawline and chin is still a bit wide, but it is certainly an improvement over what I looked like before. Dr. Lee did not promise what he could not deliver. I was pleasantly surprised on how friendly and honest he is as a doctor. Jungsuk his consultant, mirrors the same traits.
I know that I have received private messages from people wanting to see pictures, but to be honest, some of the messages seem to come from promoters or competing clinics in Seoul and I really do not appreciate that. I only came to PF to give my review so that I could help someone that is seriously considering surgery. This was a huge financial decision that had an emotional component for me-it was up there with purchasing a home, and maybe even more so important because I can buy and sell a home, I cannot easily change my face when all fails. So in short, please to do not contact me if you are a promoter because I will not respond. Also, I will no longer share my photos.
I am overall pleased with Face Dental. I received great care and was treated with respect. Being that I am Black and Asian, I looked vastly different than others in Seoul and I received a lot of stares. I felt self-conscious. Dr. Lee and his team are professionals that did not make me feel bad about my appearance. The nurses were wonderful while I was in the clinic for three days following the surgery. My room had anime dubbed in Korean so on nights I was in pain and stayed up and watched television. Lots of good television in Seoul!
Please do your research, setup consultations to meet with clinics and from there make your decision. I cannot make the decision for you, since this is a very personal journey for every individual. I chose Face Dental for my own reasons and I am glad I did. I hope I have helped someone out there. Take care.
