Oh... This is so dangerous...

 

To me, you have a mesial bite which actually can be fixed with two-jaw surgery. Why do I think so? Well, first of all, your middle face (just like mine) sinks a little bit, especially in comparison with your lower third, making your profile look slightly concave. Also, just like in my case (as I was explained), your chin protrudes forward which makes it look huge and asymmetric. At the same time, I’m pretty sure, your lower lip also looks thicker (I always noticed my lips asymmetry) and facial expression seems “angry”. All these are very familiar to me too but don’t worry, my case was even more severe than yours, hopefully I found a good surgeon to fix everything. Most importantly, he was very experienced and skilled and once I had a consultation with him, I could feel it. His name is Dr. Oh Myungjune from Regen PS. I’m pretty sure, you might have heard about him as he’s one of the best maxillofacial surgeons! He impressed me a lot and my results now look amazing. He did a great job on me and I think I couldn’t find someone better, very thankful to him. If you have a chance to come and visit Seoul, I’d definitely suggest you to at least have a consultation with him to make sure how experienced he is. Good luck!

 

To proceed two-jaw with rhino is impossible in no matter way. Just imagine, right after the surgery your teeth will be tied 24/7 for up to 4 weeks, nose and most probably throat will be swollen and blocked. It’d be extremely difficult to breathe with nose, while your mouth will be tied and closed and to breathe with your mouth would be almost impossible. This is an answer to your question And when I got my two-jaw dr. Oh recommended not to proceed rhino (I got it done at regen) as once my jaws were fixed and put in the right position all my facial features and even ears were aligned and became more balanced and symmetrical. So, yes… I’d suggest you to proceed two-jaw first, wait at least 6-10 months to see the final result (in my case, it was noticeable almost right away) and then if you are still unsatisfied, you can plan rhino. Good luck!

 

first of all, I got two-jaw which is different from your surgery, second - of course full asleep! he cut my bone, how is it possible to be even half awake? I was out for about 3 hrs and I don't think if any surgeon would proceed this surgery under half sleep anesthesia

 

yes I personally found him very professional

 

it did! thanks man!

 

always welcome

 

thank you

 

I continue here...
Today is 2 months since I have my operation with Dr.Oh and I’m very happy with my result. I think it’s very satisfying. I don't feel insecure and my self-confidence increased a lot. Also, my family noticed that before the surgery I had some speech defects and now my speech is very clear. I’ll post more pics when meet Dr.Oh again. Thank you for reading and good luck everyone!

 

I'm sorry for my English, it maybe not very good but I want to share my experience with you very much. I had two-jaw operation in Seoul in March and very happy with my results.

My story before the surgery.
About 10 years ago I had jaw trauma. My bite wasn’t perfect before and after that trauma, it was even worse. My lower jaw began to move to the left and as time passed by all my face moved to the left as well, making everything look very asymmetrical. I’m a big fan of modern Korean culture and interested in absolutely everything that connects with k-pop, k-beauty, k-industry and so on. One day, when I watched Youtube I saw a video about plastic surgery in Korea. It was one of series about plastic surgery and the name was Let Me In. The results of each operation was amazing, but the most amazing doctor for me was Dr. Oh from Regen. From that time it became my dream – to go to Korea and have a surgery with Dr.Oh.
Some time after, I was able to move to Korea to live there but to have a plastic surgery was still a bit expensive for me. In June last year I went to Regen for the first time. I was very excited before meeting Dr.Oh and just as I expected, he was the best! He explained every detail of my problem, he said what I need and why. Unfortunately, I couldn’t have an operation that time, as the price was a bit higher than I planned so decided to wait a bit more and save more money. During the whole year I found more and more defects in my face, I noticed that my eyes are not balanced and that my nose is very huge, I wanted to have several operations with two-jaw. I also thought that even my ears are not symmetrical. My face brought a lot of discomfort to me and make me feel very insecure. It also was one of the main problem why I couldn’t find a girlfriend. I felt very lonely and very miserable.


My consultation and before operation period.
In the beginning of this year I could finally save enough money for my operation. By the way, I have a friend, she is a youtuber and when I told her that I’m ready to have a surgery she is interested to go with me and film everything. My second consultation was in February 27. I met Dr.Oh again. I was very exciting about having the surgery but after facebow we found out that my crown on my last 3 teeth should be removed as after the surgery my teeth wouldn’t touch each other which would cause wrong bone healing. I planned to go to my home country that time, so I decided to wait a bit more and remove crowns at home with my dentist. In March 11 I came back to Dr.Oh, everything looks good and I had to wait 2 more weeks when a new facebow is ready.
In March 25 a day before my operation I came to Regen again. I passed my medical checkup and they installed metallic wires on my teeth. In March 26 I had my operation. It was in the morning from 11:30 till around 15:00. All I remember was anesthesiology doctor and several nurses around me. When my surgery finished, a nurse bring me on a wheelchair to my recovery room.

Me rehabilitation.
The nurse didn’t let me sleep some hours after the surgery. She had to put elastics on the metallic wires in my mouth that evening but couldn’t and Dr.Oh said to wait till next morning. My first night was very difficult. My face was banded and I couldn’t open my mouth. The next morning she bring me some soy milk with a tea spoon but it was really difficult to use a teaspoon and I asked for a syringe. Pouring with a syringe was much easier and that was my first meal after the operation. When Dr.Oh visited me, he put on elastics and a plastic splint. Dr.Oh said to stay one more day in the hospital, so in total I was there 2 nights.

On first week I came for drain removal, dressing and my first after operation laser treatment. A night after my right side was very swollen and I was very afraid but assistant told it will go away, so 2 or 3 days swelling went away.

2 weeks after I came for stitches removal and management control with Dr.Oh. He noticed some liquid accumulation above my right cheek, I was afraid that it’s pus or infection, but Dr.Oh said that it’s not dangerous. He prescribed me some more antibiotics for 2 weeks. Elastics and splint I wear 24 hours a day, splint I could take out only when I eat and then put it again.


One month after I came for another meeting with Dr.Oh. I felt much better. I made another set of CT and X-ray shoots and on our consultation with Dr.Oh I found out that my bones are not fixed with titanium plates and that actually was a good news for me because I don’t have to remove them some time later, so splint and elastics are very important in my recovery. According to my CT and X-rays Dr.Oh said that my bones are healing very well.

He said that I can remove splint in May 26 and in July 26 when I go back for another meeting with him I can remove elastics. Now I don’t keep splint in my mouth but still have elastics. Change short elastics for night and long for day. I feel much better now, I can talk little by little and eat very soft food. Dr.Oh moved my upper jaw forward for 3.4mm and moved back my lower jaw for 16.7mm, so the total difference is 20mm. This operation put all everything on the right position, my nose is higher now and my eyes look more symmetrical I think even my ears look better now. Dr.Oh said before operation that I need no rhinoplasty but that time I was very upset about my face and wanted to change everything. Now I see that he was right.

 

I had my operation with Dr.Oh from Regen clinic in March, I had two-jaw
