As I write this, I also had rhinoplasty using ear cartilage. I think it's been about a year and a half to two years since I had the surgery. I
had a curved nose, so I transplanted the ear cartilage between my eyebrows. I liked it for about 6 months after the surgery, but after that, it started to lose a little bit of volume
. I thought the swelling would go down now, but I know that after a year, the swelling will go down and stay there... but it feels like it's continuing to go down.
To be honest, when I look in the mirror these days, I don't see much of a difference compared to before I did it.
I wonder if it's just because I'm sensitive, but when I compare it to old photos, it looks like the front. I can see a real difference in the ear.
Friends I haven't seen in a long time don't know unless I tell them. I wonder
if the actual cartilage shrinks little by little after it engrafts.... If you listen to the doctors, they say that the cartilage is maintained, but
if there is anyone who has had ear cartilage surgery, I'm posting because I want to hear their reviews.
Is there anyone who sees a big difference compared to the first time???
