odoll Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Hi guys, If any of you got a double jaw surgery in Korea, maybe you can share the type of : soup brands, smoothie recipes, kitchen appliances, grocery stores, restaurants anything food-related that was helpful to you during the first couple weeks of recovery in Korea I'm sure that would be helpful to a lot of people.
maybebaby1980 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 I did my two jaw and v line in Korea with The face dental Dr Lee and I survived on ensure plus shakes and in Korea you will find a shake called 'well life' by 'nu care'. I also recommend you bring some sort of protein power so you can drink protein shakes every day also. Korea also has shack shake and during my liquid phase i used to drink the milkshakes I aimed for 1600 calories a day.
lira_land Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 I'm going to have my jaw surgery too~ Can you tell me, when I will be able to eat hard food and how long time it takes to recover?
scochend09 Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 You won't be able to eat hard food for at least a month. Even after a month it's better to avoid things that are extremely hard to chew, but your diet should be able to include most things at that point. I'm currently on 2 weeks of liquids + soups + shakes. I'll then try to move onto softer foods such as porridge for an extra 2 weeks before being able to eat foods like meat at all.
odoll Posted August 12, 2019 Author Posted August 12, 2019 what about soups? Any good brands/flavors?
