If you look at the pre-surgery photo, you can see that I was dissatisfied with the overall blunt and low bridge of my nose, so
I covered my eyes with a sticker, but when you look at my facial features as a whole, I was quite refreshingly tall. My nose wasn't small, but it felt chubby, so when I looked at my face as a whole, it made my image look young and ugly rather than feminine.
So, I thought I should get a nose surgery if I was going to be stressed like this, so I started looking into it, but is this something that every hospital pursues? It felt like everything felt different! Some places it's done so naturally that it almost doesn't show any signs of surgery, and some places it's done very flashy...? I thought that neither of the two would suit me well, but as I looked into a lot of plastic surgery, I came to know the saying, “I’m trying to sleep.” I think I mainly looked into places that do it in a self-conscious style, so no matter
how much nose surgery I do, if my image doesn’t suit me, Even when I went for a consultation because I thought it was a bad thing, I just had to raise it to this level. I thought I had just experienced places that looked at things roughly like this, so I didn't think about it any more.. I didn't just look at the height of the bridge of the nose, but I also carefully looked at how to raise it up to the tip of the nose and whether that height suits me. I went to a place that provides babysitting
, but what I felt was that it's hard to get a consultation in a famous place with a lot of people, right? So, there are some people who just want to go somewhere else, but plastic surgery itself is not something you look for in a short period of time and get surgery right away. So, instead of suddenly making a reservation for surgery at a place where you can easily get a consultation, I wish I could get consultation at a famous place even if I have to wait a bit.
I also had a nose surgery this time. This consultation was also difficult to find, but I was given a much easier to understand explanation of the nose materials and surgery method than when I received consultations elsewhere. The director drew a picture and told me how much to raise the bridge of my nose, so my expectations were greater than the burden of the surgery
. After the surgery... honestly, I don't know what I was thinking during that week because of the splint. It was more frustrating than I thought to breathe through my mouth and my mouth was so dry that it was difficult... I usually drink very little water, but at this time, I drank more than 2L every day. That way, the stuffy feeling in my throat would be less
. Still, when I took the splint off, I was surprised that there was no swelling or bruising compared to what I expected. It was also surprising that the unique lumpy feeling disappeared when I looked at it from the side and from the front.
I know I had a nose job. In the beginning, my friends would say "ugh" when I was having a hard time with my splints, but now they compliment me every time they see that it goes well with my facial features. After getting plastic surgery, I couldn't drink for a month and had to pay a lot of attention to my nose, but if it gives me this level of satisfaction, I'm willing to take a little more and let it go. I thought it would be okay haha.
Oh, by the way, I used silicone and donor ribs for my nose! For the costal cartilage, the director said I could easily choose between autologous cost and donor cost, so after much deliberation, I decided to use donated cost. Since any nose material has clear pros and cons, I hope the surgeons make a careful decision and perform the surgery after understanding the material accurately.
Four months later Now that things have passed, I just want to live by calling it my nose, right? Everyone is like this haha. As I write this, I feel like I'm just bragging... If you have any more questions, feel free to leave a comment or send me a message and I'll tell you everything!
