face surgery
thank you so much for your help on my question here: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
"i started puberty when i was 9 and am 17/f now. when would it be okay to have corrective surgery/plastic surgery done on the face to fix my jaw? when do my bones stop growing?"
"They almost always refuse to do surgery when you're under 18. Anyways, I believe you reach your official height at like 21, but your face is always changing. My sister looks VERY different now than she did when she was in high school (from 18 to 30 years old).
Surgery on your jaw IS possible, but VERY VERY PAINFUL. They shave down your jaw bone. I've seen it on a plastic surgery show where a man was getting surgery to be more feminine. It looked so painful but if that's what you choose to do it's your choice, your body. But I definitely think you should wait until your at least 25."
i have a question on your answer. eek yeah but the guy had drugs when he got the surgery, right? do you mean like it will hurt post-surgery too?
do you know what happens after surgery? like do people have to wear a mask thingy for a month after or something?
25 sounds like a good age. hmm.
thank you again!! =)

Your welcome!
ANY kind post-surgery hurts, no matter what. After the drugs die down, you experience a lot of swelling. You are prescribed painkillers, but you can only take them so much.
After oral surgery, the mouth must be cleaned with provided mouth wash solution. Some surgeons want you to not eat anything for 24 hours, while others feel that eating is fine.
· A one night hospital stay is generally required
· The face will become moderately swollen and may become black and blue
· Return to usual activities in approximately one week
· It may take four to six weeks before the improved contour becomes obvious
