I'm so sorry for you. But my only question is, why don't you wait for your result until a couple months? Since a week getting revision seems sound doesn't wise at all. I mean, I saw some of the surgery they look so bad within couple weeks of surgery, but getting better later. And if it's really a a problem, why don't you just find another surgeon to fix the damage? Why wanting a revision from the botched surgeon? It's like falling into the same rabbit hole twice. Cheers.

Hello thanks for your support, I think there are some misunderstanding about my post.
1)I got surgery some years ago so I already know the final result and I don’t have any swelling left

2)i Don’t want dr lee to touch my face again ! Im seeking for another surgeon to get a revision with.
He did a revision surgery on me one week after the original surgery because it was mandatory, I was not able to close my mouth and sleep because of the bite issue ( my upper and lower jaw was always trying to be stable and it woke me up all the time ). I had no choice…I was scared af not being able to sleep and close my mouth again. It was not just esthetic issue.
I could not take a flight with this bite :sad:
 
Thanks
I felt the need to share my story.
It conforts me a bit to help other girls.
Hi Jessica, I feel bad for you.. hopefully you’re able to get a surgeon to fix it soon.

Did Dr.Lee tell you to get Faceguid 3D printing before surgery?

I almost had djs with Dr. Lee, but I ended up only getting genioplasty. I agree with you, the bed was really really uncomfortable, the recovery room was dark. Apparently they’re sharing the facility with another plastic surgery clinic.

They are sharing the facility with apjeong surgery clinic, that’s also why dr lee didn’t allow me to stay longer because there were a lot of patient in the facility (I felt like it was a factory).
Glad you changed your mind about getting djs with him.
Are you satisfied with your genioplasty ?
The after care was miserable in this clinic honestly.
When I went back for after care I had to wait almost one hour before meeting a nurse lol I felt like I bothered them…
No wonder why this clinic was so cheap, all was miserable from the surgery room to the facilities.

It was terrible that they didn’t allowed you to stay longer, djs is a huge surgery. But yeah, their facility is kinda old, especially the pateints ward, my recovery room was dark and cold.

Thankfully the outcome of my genioplasty is actually quite ok.
I still wanted to get djs tho I couldn’t find a suitable clinic. I tried re-contacting EverM, but no reply so far.

If you don’t mind I’d love to add you on kkt…

After consulting few surgeon, most told me they don’t understand what kind of movements dr lee did to me and it has no sense, apparently surgical cuts are very assymetrical and unprofessional. Since I have no surgical details it’s hard to reverse this botched surgery. They also told me I could have joints problems in some years because my jaw have been badly rotated. I had a long face and he did the opposite movements that have to be done.
One surgeon even told me I was not the first one to complain about botched surgery from this Korean clinic

Hello, I make this post to encourage people not getting DJS at the face Dental (dr Joongkyou Lee’s dental clinic)
Tfd was popular before, and I went there to get djs because of that.
I got the surgery some years ago now, and I finally decided to make a review.
i have to get revision now and it’s very hard for me. This surgery is expensive and invasive, I cannot be sure it will fix the problem with a revision.

First of all, the legend about dr lee not asking for review is wrong, he asked a review to me to get a 10% discount. I had to do it before getting surgery.
  1. When I woke from this surgery it was hell, the bed was not comfortable, and I was unable to breath correctly. When the swelling started I began to suffocate and had to ask help to nurses. The nurse at the face dental are rude as hell, they didn’t want to help me. I needed to breath by using a straw inside my mouth. Honestly I thought I would die..
  2. I finally survived, but was very tired, when I asked to dr lee to stay one more night he refused… I had to go home by himself during a hot summer. I almost died a second time…
  3. When I was home I felt good… this clinic traumatized me and I was happy to be home. But something was wrong with my mouth and I felt it. After several nights my lower jaw began to shift to the right side. And my bite was totally off. I sent several messages to dr lee who seemed to doesn’t care. It was hell because lower jaw always shifted to the right when I sneezed or slept.. it was really scary
  4. When I finally went back to the clinic and asked to dr lee about this he said there was nothing to worry about… which felt fake to me. I knew there was a problem and I couldn’t live like that. After watching the X-ray, I finally saw the lower and upper jaw was not aligned at all.
  5. I had to convince dr lee to do a revision on me because I couldn’t stay with a offset bite. He finally accepted. Getting another surgery one week after the first surgery is hell. I don’t know what kind of anesthesia he used but I had nightmares during two weeks. Worst anesthesia experience in my life
  6. I never knew what kind of movements he did to me jaw but my bite stopped to be unstable. However I was not able to breath correctly on one side of my nose. Swelling was terrible and I was not able to breath, I got in a deep depression.
  7. when back home I had to wait until a year to deflate and see the final results of the surgery, which are not good at all:
  8. -my face is no longer symmetrical, one side of my face look lower than other side, even my eyes looks assymetrical now..
  9. -my bite is still not good, I have difficulties to eat and speak
  10. -gum has been traumatized and now I have recession
  11. -not able to breath on one side of my nose, I did a nose surgery in my country but it didn’t fix it.
  12. -i also have memory problem now (from second surgery nightmare anesthesia ?)
  13. After consulting few surgeon, most told me they don’t understand what kind of movements dr lee did to me and it has no sense, apparently surgical cuts are very assymetrical and unprofessional. Since I have no surgical details it’s hard to reverse this botched surgery. They also told me I could have joints problems in some years because my jaw have been badly rotated. I had a long face and he did the opposite movements that have to be done.
    One surgeon even told me I was not the first one to complain about botched surgery from this Korean clinic, and he had a consultation with another girl.
  14. I will regret all my life and I hope people won’t do the same mistake.
  15. On this X-ray you can see the offset bite and uneven cut from this so called « surgeon ». I also add a picture of me, suffocating with my straw while nurses were chilling(imagine almost dying when nurse in front of you laugh and speak)

So sorry to hear that. I have a botched djs in the face dental a few months ago. And I am deeply depressed ever since. Do you plan on having a revision surgery?

May I know what happened to you?
I heard so much about this clinic, then suddenly the truth seemed to come out.
I’ve met a girl who developed an asthmatic cough from his anesthesia. I wanted to suggest this clinic to my sister before that.
Now I hear Jessicalala also had problems with the anesthesia. Is this common in Korea or only in this clinic?
Does he use some cheap Anesthesia or how can people develop so many problems?
