I thought about it and gave up many times.. I went to many places and finally made up my mind to have surgery to become prettier.. After the surgery, my entire face balance was completely ruined and I became uglier rather than prettier, so it's hard... (Based on me, my family, and acquaintances) My original nose was a small and pretty nose with barely visible nostrils, and it was a bit disappointing that it was so tall. When I was consulting with plastic surgeons, some of them recommended that I just get a little surgery on the tip of my nose instead of the entire surgery, but at the time, I don't know what I was thinking... I had a deposit and I thought I had to do it, so I went ahead with the first surgery without thinking about it any further. (Of course I thought it would become prettier and that it wouldn't fail...what did I believe..???) Since it's the front of my face, I should have looked into it carefully and chosen the material, looked up the surgical method, and thought about it in detail...I made a mistake in judgment and ended up regretting it until I was about to die.
The hospital I chose unconditionally recommended costal cartilage, so it was my first surgery...it seemed excessive...but I thought maybe ear cartilage or nasal septum wasn't enough for my nose, so I had the surgery at the hospital I had chosen with difficulty. When I asked the hospital, they said they used donated rib + ear cartilage + nasal septum. (During the last consultation right before the surgery, I was really scared when they suddenly recommended mesh, which was different from what I had initially said, and I told them I absolutely, absolutely did not like it, but I have no way of knowing if they used it or notㅡ.. If it comes out during the removal process later, I'll have to turn over the hospital, right..?)
Since it uses costal cartilage, the nose doesn't move when I smile, yawn, sneeze, and make facial expressions, so it's uncomfortable and feels like a foreign body.. The small nose gradually grew into a big nose due to swelling (I had a small nose since birth, but I didn't know it was small, and the swelling went down and it became even smaller), the nose didn't get higher, and my nostrils were very visible.. After the surgery was already over... The hospital was just like, swelling, swelling, swelling, swelling!! In 3 months, in 6 months (all hospitals have the same repertoire..) In my opinion, it will come down = it's subtle, there's almost no difference. Of course there are people who come down differently, but by my standards, it doesn't come down because it's fixed well.
The surgery can no longer be undone and I'm looking into removing it. I found out after the surgery that I can't go back to my original nose after removal, so I have to listen carefully when people around me try to talk me out of
it. (I know you won't hear it then...but please think about it again.) I absolutely do not recommend rib surgery (autologous or donated rib) for your first surgery..... I had the surgery not knowing it would be this uncomfortable, and the doctor said that I could have a pig nose after time, but thinking about it now, how did my original nose turn into a pig nose? It's ridiculous........ It's all because I didn't find out more.. I can't blame anyone. I voluntarily laid down on the operating table and I can't turn back time..
When you really, really have no choice but to break or get hurt, or have a crooked nose that's ugly, a severely depressed nose, no nostrils, or you really, really hate your face so much that you don't want to look in the mirror, etc., I wrote this with the hope that you will think carefully and carefully about getting rhinoplasty again.
When I looked around at surgeries, when the cast was taken off, the nostrils weren't even, but slightly crooked?? Or not??, and there was a pressed line left on the bridge of the nose. Up to this point, it seemed like the swelling was taking care of it. However, when the cast was taken off, "What?? What's with the nostrils?", "The opening stitches were tied wrong," "The bridge of the nose is crooked like a zigzag," and other serious situations, you should definitely, unconditionally, ask about these things. ㅠㅠ Even if it changes from its initial shape, it never changes from the before to the after.
