No offence but my 2 cents on extra-oral incisions.

I don't think that method is for everyone, especially for those who are prone to scarring or keloids? As they say, your mileage may vary.

External incision will always provide better access to the bone and allow more aggressive and precise surgery, but the intra oral procedure has improved greatly over the years.

jaw reduction is what it says....to reduce or reshape the jaw. Zygomatic reduction is to reshape or reduce the cheek.

Dear all. I've finally done the surgery yesterday morning 10am with Dr Park!

I had
(i) zygoma reduction
(ii) lower blehpharoplasty
(iii) botox injection on lower jaws

Now, I'm bandaged in a really tight headband, it's so uncomfortable and I can't wait to change it to a lighter one tomorrow. I'm also puffed up like a hamster, praying for my face to deswell

Owell, anyhow, I wont know the results yet as it's only day 2! Here's the breakdown of the pain level:

Zygoma reduction: 2/10 (no pain during surgery as it was on general anesthesia, the only uneasiness comes from not being able to chew properly for the first couple of days.)
Lower blehpharoplasty: 8/10 (it was a trauma during surgery as I was on local anesthesia for the first time. I could practically feel my muscles tearing apart in my eye sockets, and the stiching part and all was horror It was okay after surgery. Just afraid of the scars *prays*)

So! I'm staying at youngdong hotel which provides pickup service to and fro the clinic. But last night as I went back to the hotel at 9pm, Dr park sent me back personally in his car, as the hotel don't provide its pickup service after 6. So really nice of Dr Park! He's a very friendly and attentive doctor I must say.

I'm here alone and no one to talk to on my surgery during this recovery period. Just hope everything will be over soon

Hi Kalyn:

Am planning to go to Korea and stay in Young Dong Hotel. How's the hotel? Trip Advisor had lousy ratings on the hotel. As I will be going alone - is the general vicinity convenient for food etc?

Presently considering Dr Kim from BK Dongyang. Which clinic is Dr Park operating at?

Yep the wound is quite long, nearly 4 cm on each side but it is under the chin so nobody can see it from the front. Hopefully it will fade away after 1 month or so.

Hello..

Painfull !!!

Hi jawful,
how much did you pay for your jaw shaving's surgery?
I heard that Dr.Pat offers different quotations to different customers. But I guess he's not the only surgeon who did that but my main concern is to prevent exploitation.
I was thinking of going to Dr.Pat initially but not so sure now after hearing a series of "numbness" incidents which may be related to nerve damage

Can more people who have done jaw shaving before offer some valuable feedbacks? I'm really at a loss now... Have been researching but the infos dedrived from the net can be contradicting, ambiguous & vague. Sighs. And I need more assurance before I can muster ample confidence to proceed on with the surgery.

Factors that are holding me back:
1) Complications involved
2) Intensity of pain
3) Budget

I dont mind if a longer recovery time is needed provided the end result is satisfactory. Hoping to have a one time surgery w/o revision as it's very cumbersome to fly to and fro to a foreign country. (Need to book air tickets. settle accomodation. etc...)

Anyone know who are the doctors who offer free revision if result didnt turn out as expected? I guess I would be more assured then... and dont mind paying a little more for "insurance"... lols.

By the way, is it safe to travel alone to Thailand? I want to be discreet abt my surgery yet paranoid of travelling alone. Any suggestions?

I heard of Dr.Pat doing jaw surgery, how abt zygomatic surgery and thigh liposuction? Anyone can share? I cant find these services listed in his website but seem to have heard of him performing the above mentioned surgeries before, thus want to clarify.

Most imptly, is this Dr Pat experienced in jaw surgery as in better than other surgeons, mediocre or below average?

Appreciate all assistance, feedbacks, suggestions:D

Hello Mondayhue..

I'm not sure about the probability rate of nerve damage for jaw surgery..
But there is definitely going to be swelling due to trauma in that area..

I think Dr Pat is quite good and his nurses are v friendly.. He offers no cost revision as well..

Mine was probably due to complication in surgery as I insisted that he do from inside.. Apparently it is safer to do from exterior...

From his past patients, can see that results are v good..
Perhaps you can try botoxing jaw to see if u like it first.. Don't rush into it..
