It's been almost two weeks now... The swelling is getting better as time goes by... It's not yet at a point where I can feel relieved... But I'm going to take good care of it for at least a month... The most uncomfortable thing right now is... My nose keeps running when I eat... haha. When I eat outside with my friends... I really need toilet paper... So when I eat, I lightly block my nostrils with a tissue. These days, I'm taking rhinitis medicine... By chance, my friend had some leftover Lizaven medicine, so I'm also taking Lizaven... I asked the hospital and they said it's okay to take it if they have the medicine, so I'm also taking Lizaven. It seems like a lot of the swelling has gone down now... Strangely enough, I like my nose better when there's a little bit of swelling... I should say the bridge of my nose is a bit thick... I wanted a nose like that... but now that the swelling has gone down, the bridge of my nose is a little thicker. I 've become thinner. After removing the bandage, I even thought about how I really hoped the swelling wouldn't go down for the next 3 to 4 days. As the swelling went down, my nose started to look a little crooked. Even before the surgery, the bridge of my nose would look crooked at the hospital. They told me to anticipate that and have surgery... Since my face is asymmetrical, it is inevitable that my nose will be crooked... I can do an osteotomy... but my nose is not curved enough to require an osteotomy. They say that because the face is asymmetrical, it may feel like the nose is leaning to one side... If I look closely at the nose, it looks crooked... Well, if you look at the face as a whole, the nose doesn't look crooked... So, the nose is just crooked. I'm going to be satisfied with the fact that I have a high nose bridge... After all, other people don't see the entire image, so no one looks at just the nose... It's not curved that much, so I'm just going to skip it haha. Also, it's open so the nose is better There are suture marks on the area, but they are barely visible anymore. Unexpectedly, the red line is hard to see... These days, the incision on the inside of my nose is in the process of healing, so it often itch... Is the thread melting now? See... So, when it gets to a certain point, I'm going to go to the hospital and have the dissolvable thread removed... There's almost no pain now in the area where the ear cartilage was harvested, and some people say it hurts when listening with earphones... but I haven't felt any pain... Right now, it's because of the nose sebum. ...I'm having a hard time...I'm thinking about doing a nose pack or exfoliation after a week. Oh, I used the ear cartilage and nasal septum...it's less hard than when I first started, but it's still hard...especially. The septum of the columella is broken haha, but it doesn't cause any inconveniences in daily life. Now the weather and humidity are getting hotter... For those preparing for surgery... It's hot, but if you just endure it for a little while, you'll have a pretty nose... Cheer up, everyone~ haha
