I’m so sorry this happened to you! I sincerely hope you will soon find a resolution and a good doctor for revision.

It’s very hard to ask for a surgery report from Korean clinics. Almost impossible. But maybe you can ask for help from PS agencies and pay them a fee? These people often have better relationships with the local clinics so maybe they can pull some strings?

Just my thought, but I guess I would try all the ways possible.

Sending you a lot of hugs 🤗

Thanks but I almost gave up after contacting several surgeons. Most of them said my case was too complicated. I have to do a gum graft now because my bite is not good and it hurts my gum…. I also struggle to breath and septum surgery didn’t help so far 😞

Do you think wearing braces would help?
Don’t loose hope! I know it’s hard to do, but please try to think positive. It will attract good energies and you will find a right surgeon who can help address the problem one day.

Sending all the good vibes your way ❤️ please keep us posted!

I cannot recommend you another place because I only went to tfd for my surgery… and it was an horrible experience. I consulted several other clinics but cannot know if they are good or not. Just trust my post about tfd please, I hope there wont be other botched stories :(

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)

Omg this must have been terrifying experience for you. Like the screws on the jaw are literally sticking out. What the heck I bet those can be felt with your hand when you run over them. I hope you are able to get reimbursed for all the suffering and stress.

I didn’t ask for refund because dr lee ghosted me after surgery and it was too much stress for me. I prefer to forget but it’s hard when you see your face…everyday. I will never be myself anymore

I had my revision surgery done after botched by the face dental dr. Lee. And I think my revision surgeon is very good. I can recommend he to you if you want to do djs in Korea.

Unbelievable... He got so bad over the years. I am so heartbroken to hear that. It doesn't seem like anyone else. Of course I can be related to it.

Thank you for sharing your courage despite the difficult situation.
