I had rhinoplasty done by Dr. Woojin Woo of iLumi Plastic Surgery Clinic.
I decided to go to this hospital after seeing that an acquaintance of mine had had it done here and her nose had become so pretty. I
was very stressed because my nose was severely curved, but
this time I decided to have the curved nose removed while undergoing functional nose surgery. I received a consultation and underwent surgery.
When I told him that I was worried about raising my nose too high because my face is not three-dimensional, the doctor
said that he would only shave the corners of my nose and save the tip of my nose without using silicone.
So, I decided to use ear cartilage for the tip of my nose.
On the day of surgery, I felt drowsy and had a headache for 3 to 4 hours after the anesthesia came out, but it subsided after taking headache medicine.
I think it was a little difficult that day, perhaps because I was a bit underweight.
And I think my throat hurt a lot from sleeping with my mouth open because of the cotton stuffed in my nose.
So, I slept with gauze soaked in water on it while I slept.
The day after the surgery, I went to remove the cotton that had stopped the bleeding, and how cool it felt... I can't express the pleasure in words.
It felt so good to feel my nose being unclogged.
I was given injections to reduce swelling and even received laser treatment to reduce swelling.
From the evening of the first day, the area where the cotton was removed started to gradually swell my nose, making it difficult to breathe. However, on
that day, I was able to breathe through my nose a little better than when the cotton was inserted;;
Although it is swollen, I am very happy to see a smooth bridge of the nose without a hooked beak when viewed from the side. I
hope time passes quickly and the swelling goes down quickly.
Since silicone was not put on the bridge of the nose and there was no splint on, I decided to go on the 7th day to remove the stitches and taping from the nose area. They also
removed the cotton from the ears on the 7th day. I decided to go that day too, so I'm just looking forward to the date.
