I have been self-conscious about my square jaw since I was a teenager. Growing up in Texas, having a wider face was not something anyone talked about fixing - it was just accepted as genetics. But after discovering Korean beauty standards and the prevalence of facial contouring surgery in Korea, I realized there were options I had never considered.
My research into Dress Plastic Surgery Seoul began after a friend who works in the K-beauty industry mentioned they were known for facial contouring procedures. I spent months going through their before/after galleries, reading reviews from international patients, and watching recovery vlogs from people who had similar jaw structures to mine.
What drew me to Dress Plastic Surgery specifically was their 3D CT scanning technology and computer simulation. Before any cutting happens, they create a detailed model of your facial bones and show you exactly how the surgery will reshape your face. This level of precision and planning was unlike anything I had encountered with US surgeons I consulted.
The V-line surgery I underwent included mandible angle reduction (shaving the jaw corners), chin reduction and reshaping (genioplasty), and masseter muscle reduction with Botox. It is a comprehensive approach to transforming a square face into the coveted V-shaped face that is so popular in Korea.
I will be honest: this was major surgery. The procedure took about four hours, and the first week of recovery was brutal. My entire lower face was swollen to the point where I did not recognize myself. I could only consume liquids through a straw, and talking was difficult. The clinic provided detailed instructions and saw me daily for wound management and swelling reduction treatments.
By week two, the swelling had decreased enough that I could see the initial results, and I was amazed. The square angles that had defined my face for 32 years were simply gone. My jawline now tapered elegantly toward my chin. Even through the remaining swelling, I could see this was transformative.
The recovery process requires patience. Facial bone surgery causes significant swelling that takes months to fully resolve. At one month, I looked good. At three months, I looked better. Now at six months, I finally see the final result, and it exceeds my expectations.
What surprised me most was how this surgery affected not just my appearance but my entire self-perception. I no longer avoid photographs. I no longer angle my face in specific ways to minimize my jaw. I just... exist in my face comfortably for the first time in my adult life.
Dress Plastic Surgery Seoul delivered exactly what they promised. The staff was professional, the facility was modern and clean, and the results speak for themselves. If you are considering V-line surgery, Korea is the only place to go - they have perfected this procedure in ways that Western surgeons simply have not.
One important note: facial contouring is permanent. There is no going back. Make sure you are certain about your decision and have realistic expectations about the recovery process. It is not an easy surgery, but for me, it was absolutely worth every difficult day.
