I had revision surgery because there were signs of contracture, and even with the splint on, I felt like my nose was somehow upturned, so I was really worried. But when I took the splint off, the shape was much better than I expected, so I was surprised... It’s fascinating, and for now, it was autologous costal cartilage, but the swelling isn’t severe and the bruising seems just average too. The area where the rib cartilage was taken is also much better than it was 2-3 days after, and I feel like I can tell that the recovery is different day by day. But it’s so fascinating. I still feel like my nostrils show a bit, but it doesn’t look strange at all. I guess the nostril lowering was done well.. Even after surgery, I kept looking things up and there were a lot of negative stories, so I was worried... I hope I can sleep well today
