It's already been a month since my nose surgery! First of all, I have a low and small nose, so it was very stressful to see my round nostrils from the front. When I looked at it from the side, it looked droopy and when I took a picture, only my nostrils were visible. I thought about it for about 3 years and went to 6-7 different places. ㅅㅈㅇwoo
. I had surgery from the director!
Other hospitals said that 'nasal septum lengthening' was required regardless of where the CT was done or not, and this hospital was the only hospital that said that even if a septum was used, at least 10cm must be left, but since I was born with only a 10cm septum, I was told that I should not use a septum. You did it.
The director first took a CT scan and said that my nasal septum was so short that he thought I had already had surgery for a deviated septum.
Even when I went to a hospital famous for its safety, he said I absolutely had to have septum lengthening surgery, but I think the only person who thought about my safety was the director here. If I had gone somewhere else, I would have been in big trouble..;;
Although I don't have a very high nose bridge, I was vaguely anxious about implants, but the director calmly told me that since my nose is so short and my septum cannot be used, if I put silicone in my nose bridge, there would not be enough material to build the tip of my nose! So, I used the cartilage from both ears to raise the tip of my nose. Haha.
Day 1
- I remember holding the director's hand in a dazed state after waking up from anesthesia and saying thank you haha... Even though it was swollen, it already felt pretty!! I was really worried that my ears would hurt because I used both ears, but they pierced them to a minimum(?) so it really didn't hurt at all, and since there was no cotton in my nostrils, it was very easy to breathe. When I got home, my family asked me to stop asking why my condition was so good. Hahahahahahaha I had a bit of a runny nose, but it wasn't as painful or uncomfortable as I was worried about!
Day 2
- When I went to the hospital for disinfection, I was worried it would hurt a lot, but the pain was just a tolerable sting! They gave me an injection to relieve swelling and gave me antibiotics. When I took off the bandage for a moment, I saw the shape of my nose. There was some bruising, but I already liked it!! I was relieved and glad that the director explained the surgical method in detail while showing me a tablet. (The fascia behind the ear was also used to shape the nose, and the missing part was filled with ear cartilage as much as possible and no other materials were used.) Day 3 - When you open your mouth, the tip of the nose is
visible
. There was a sharp, sharp pain, but it was bearable! My ears really didn't hurt haha... That day, I had a lot of runny nose, so I wiped only the runny nose with a cotton swab or gauze. Whenever I was worried, I contacted the manager via KakaoTalk, and he kindly responded. I wanted to get rid of the swelling quickly, so I drank pumpkin juice a lot. I remember stretching out after taking a walk for about 70 minutes.. You shouldn't overexert yourself. I still have bandages, but my family is already saying it's amazing that I look sharp. Haha. My sister also said that she should have a reoperation here. Haha. Days 4-6 - Continue taking
antibiotics
. Other than feeling weak after eating and taking anti-sneeze medication, I was fine! ** If you have a lot of runny nose, be sure to tell the hospital, and they will tell you about Actifid, a medicine you can get without a prescription at the pharmacy! People who don't take the medicine say their runny nose actually becomes sticky, but this worked well for me and I continued to take it as long as my runny nose was severe. But the medicine was so strong that I was very sleepy!
Day 7
- The director removed the stitches from my nose and ears delicately and meticulously, slowly and painlessly! The explanation was very kind, and I was worried that it would hurt because I heard that removing stitches was hell, but it really didn't hurt. As expected, it's a great place for aftercare.. They even made implants for me so that my ears wouldn't bleed! Because it was the Chuseok holiday on this day, no other staff members came out and only the director came out, but I felt a lot of love for the hospital ㅠㅠ - The day I
finally got to see what my nose looked like after removing all the splints!!! Anyway, the tip of my nose would fall down later anyway, so I over-corrected and the tip of my nose was raised a lot, haha, so much so that I can't even remember what it looked like from the beginning... This is what happens when you just raise the tip of your nose... I transformed from a dog-like look to a cat-like look haha One month later - over
-
correction The area has gone down a lot, so it looks like I'm sleeping haha. If I don't tell people around me, they won't know I had a nose job, but I keep hearing people say I've lost weight, become thinner, and have become more sophisticated. They also noticed that I had an allergy to antibiotics after the surgery, and did I take Sepharide
? I had an allergy;; So, he prescribed a different medicine, and of course, I was impressed by his meticulousness and delicacy.
I can't see blood vessels well, so I always got a lot of injections in both arms every time he got the injection line. But here, he did it well in one shot!
The director, manager, and staff are so kind, and more than anything, I really like it...❤️❤️ Even though it's only been a month, the swelling is going down well! I’m looking forward to how pretty it will be next month and the next month!!
