My No-Tie Double Jaw Surgery Journey at id Hospital
Hi, I’m Riley from id Hospital! π
Today, I want to share a patient’s story about their experience with No-Tie Double Jaw Surgery.
This patient had struggled with a protruding jaw for years and finally decided to take action after 3 years of hesitation.
Before Surgery: Lots of Questions
When the patient first came in, they had tons of questions. We took X-rays of their face and teeth, and met with the consultant to go over everything. Then, the surgeon carefully reviewed their photos and scans, explaining what kind of surgery was needed and how it would be done.
Even before the consultation, the patient had concerns about recovery time and side effects. The team reassured them, saying, “Don’t rush—take your time to decide.”
That level of care built trust, and they booked their surgery date.
Surgery Day
The day of surgery arrived! The patient fasted 8 hours beforehand and arrived at the hospital ready. After one last discussion with the surgeon, the 5-hour procedure began.
During recovery, nurses checked in regularly, replacing ice packs and monitoring their condition.
3 Days Post-Op: Time to Go Home
On day three, it was time for discharge. After a final CT scan and some last-minute instructions, the patient went home.
At first, yellow bruises appeared, so they continued with cold compresses, then switched to warm compresses from day four.
1 Week Post-Op: Back to Work
By the first week, the patient returned to work. Colleagues noticed they looked younger, and friends complimented the sharper, more defined facial features.
These positive reactions boosted their confidence even more.
3 Weeks Post-Op: Unexpected Check-Up
Around week three, a sudden nosebleed prompted a check-up. The team identified the cause and provided guidance for ongoing care.
The patient was impressed by how the hospital stayed responsible for their care, unlike some stories they had read about other clinics.
6 Months Post-Op : Amazing Results
Even months later, the patient noticed changes in their swelling and facial contours compared to earlier photos. By 3 months, most sensation had returned, and confidence was restored.
While full recovery usually takes a year, the patient reflected on the past 6 months as challenging yet rewarding—and they’re excited for the months ahead.
π¬ Riley’s Note
Many patients don’t realize the dramatic changes until they compare post-op photos over time. True satisfaction comes not just from leaving the operating room, but from seeing the transformation and feeling confident again.
