It may be a bit awkward since it's been so long since I last came here to write about Seongyesa after the surgery. Before the surgery, I came in almost every day to look up information, but after the surgery, I stopped coming in because I wasn't worried.
I went from Busan to Seoul and had the surgery. When I was selling my hair, I went up a week before the surgery and made consultation appointments at six places for about three days. I had the surgery at Named Plastic Surgery Clinic where I consulted for the fourth time. It would definitely be better to get a lot of counseling from multiple places. Especially those who are having their first surgery! As for my face, I want to know which surgeries are necessary and which are unnecessary and excessive, so I recommend going to at least three places.
[Region-Seoul Expenses]
(KTX 120,000 KTX was used once when footing, on the day of surgery, 1 week (splint and outer stitch removal), and 2 weeks (inner stitch removal).
Accommodation was once when footing was sold and once on the day of surgery. After surgery, I had my nose removed the next day. And if you add food expenses, it seems like the cost alone comes out to about 70-80 won.
[Surgery progress] ~ Day of surgery: Bridge of nose (silicone) + tip of nose (nasal septum + ear cartilage)
On the day of surgery, 1 hour longer than the original reservation time? I went about early. I was nervous, so I went to the exam room early and did it as if I was going to relax. Haha, I went and sat for a while, filled out the patient consent form, consulted with the director one more time, changed into surgical clothes, washed my face, waited for a while, and then went to the operating room. When you go to the operating room, the nurses are preparing the surgery and talking to you. The operating room is cold and I'm already nervous, but I'm even more nervous. I guess it's because the surgical gown is thin? But as I relax and chat with the nurses, the director comes in. Did you come in, sit down, and exchange one or two or three words? Doctor, shall we start anesthesia now? I asked, and yes, the surgery was about to start. As soon as I heard, I fell asleep right away. And when you wake up, the surgery is over. Go to the recovery room, sit for a while and recover, and then return home when you come to your senses.
This is where the real pain begins. When I first got to the accommodation, it was better than I thought. I wanted to eat porridge, but since dawn, I've been getting more and more swollen, and I have to breathe only through my mouth, and it seems like I'm getting a headache... Anyway, there are more than one or two things that are painful in many ways. I'm supposed to only breathe through my mouth when I sleep, but I fell asleep from exhaustion and woke up because I couldn't breathe!! I woke up... and when I looked at the clock, 10 minutes had passed; It's really hard to wait until I go to the hospital the next day to have my nose removed.
~ It's been 1 week since I removed the cotton.
My nose is still very stuffy and my nose is not runny, but rather oozing? The same thing happens, but I'm still thankful that I can breathe through my nose. I frequently applied eye ointment with a sterile cotton swab every 4 to 6 hours, and the swelling seemed to reach its peak on the 3rd or 4th day. I had surgery in the winter, so I went out for a walk, but it was so cold that I felt like my nose was getting more runny and stuffy, so I refrained from going for a walk. If you go to the hospital in the first week to have the splint and stitches removed, they will treat you and get a laser treatment for the swelling. It's a bit painful to take off the splint. I can't even feel the outer stitches being removed
. When I come home after removing the splint
for two weeks,
I can see the shape of my nose and it's really amazing. But if you look at it up close, it's gross. It's really a blackhead on your nose; I already have men's pores and oily skin... From this point on, I started taking care of my pores and blackheads haha. The bridge of my nose has risen (about 4.5mm), and the swelling has added to it, so my eyes look a little crowded. From this point on, I started going for walks, showering carefully, and consistently applying ointment. Just carry on with your daily life the same way you did in the first week!
~ After a month,
I can see the swelling and bruising gradually subsiding. When it comes to pimples on my nose, I never use physical force and manage them with Acnon cream! I also apply Newgel scar ointment and take care of the columella and ear incisions. I met my friends and they said it went really well and the surgery didn't show up as much as I expected, so I'm glad. Looking at it with my own eyes, my eyebrow bones have come out a lot, but my complex about the low bridge of my nose has improved a lot, so I'm very satisfied.
+ Reviews are a cost discount benefit. You all know what I'm writing, right? Haha. I took it into consideration, but I wrote it as honestly as possible. If you look at my previous posts, you'll know how I ended up going through the surgery hahahahaha I tried to write a review every 1st and 2nd week, but I ended up writing a review all at once! And personally, the swelling went down really quickly, so there isn't much of a difference between the second week and now. If you have any remaining questions, please leave a comment and I will answer to the best of my knowledge! Oh, and the director has such clear eyes that I feel 200% confident haha.
