Before after after before after after before after afterIt's only barely week 2 now, so the director said it's still too early to judge the swelling and shape But... I don't think the swollen shape is bad either lololololol My nose was so... nonexistent... so maybe that's why, but... even the way it looks with swelling now is pretty okay in its own way haha
My eye surgery was a revision~! I had an incisional line made, ptosis correction, and lateral + lower canthoplasty together The nose surgery was my first surgery~ I had the nasal bridge and tip done, plus correction for a bulbous nose and hump nose, and for cartilage they used septal cartilage and autologous costal cartilage.
My skin is really firm and tight, so if I wanted my nose to be noticeably raised, weak cartilage probably wouldn't work The director said it would be possible to do it with only ear cartilage and septal cartilage, but the chance of needing revision surgery later would be high So he suggested building it firmly with costal cartilage haha, so I trusted the director and had the surgery~
During the pre-op tests, they said that if my costal cartilage couldn't be used either, I might have to consider donated costal cartilage I found this out while preparing for surgery, but if someone smokes too much... or has been pregnant? their costal cartilage can become so hard that it can't be used, I guess? So apparently there are quite a few people who can't use it
Luckily, after my X-ray exam, they said mine could be used lolol For a pretty nose... I can handle this much... lol
Anyway, I had the surgery hoping my broad, low nasal bridge would change to look a bit more three-dimensional And now I'm at week 2, you know? Last week I finally finished getting the splint and stitches removed, and this is my current condition haha
By my standards, I think they raised it as much as possible with my tight skin haha, and I think it looks glamorous, you know? lol The nasal tip went up naturally too haha, and thankfully the nostrils are symmetrical haha, so I'm satisfied with everything~
Since it's week 2... by week 3 and then at 1 month, it'll probably get even slimmer and all, right? haha
I think doing eye and nose surgery at once... is the answer... if you're going to do it lolol
