As I have devoted myself to facial contouring surgery, which softens the contours of the facial bones, several new trends have passed and new ones have kept emerging.
Today as well, while consulting with many people who have serious concerns about their facial contours, I reflected once again on the parts I had been ignoring and overlooking until now.
Considering that I have been performing facial contouring surgery almost every day, even a conservative estimate would put the number of people who have undergone facial contouring surgery at well over 1,000. Yet I still believe that to carefully contour the lower jaw properly, at least 1 to 2 hours are needed, and to achieve results that can accurately predict the contour of the cheekbones, it takes about 2 hours to 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Of course, through years of experience, I am not unaware of ways to shorten the time—sometimes surgery is as comfortable and enjoyable to me as eating.
When I first started facial contouring surgery, I also finished operations in a much simpler way and in a much shorter time than I do now.
If you only lightly refine a small area or make a moderate compromise, it does not take much time, swelling is much less, and the surgery itself is far less exhausting for me.
Meeting people every day with similar concerns, I sometimes grow tired of having to explain why a surgery that can be done in 30 minutes should take 2 hours, and there are many cases where I simply stop talking altogether.
When I end consultations like that rather unsatisfactorily, my first thought is not that the people asking questions are to blame for having so much unreasonable information, but rather that the responsibility lies more with the few fellow doctors who spread such information.
...
Anyway, whenever I refine facial bones, I should never forget the sincerity of engraving my name on the work, while wishing that the patient will be happy with good results after surgery.
