Hehehe, after getting facial contouring, I became so much prettier and I am satisfied, but lol; Honestly, I thought I should start by working on the actual foundation first, and if I needed to touch things up little by little later, then I could just fix them then.. so the first thing I did was facial contouring~
And the second surgery I worried about was rhinoplasty~ The bulbous nose and crooked nose that stressed me out when I smiled... and I also wanted to breathe properly, so I got functional rhinoplasty for rhinitis too ㅠ
I had rhinoplasty while recovering from facial contouring lol The swelling was pretty significant, but I had also gained some surgery experience, and thanks to making every effort to reduce the swelling quickly, now at 7 months I am showing off how much the swelling has gone down like this lol
The director who performed my surgery is an otolaryngology specialist, so they said he does both functional and cosmetic nose surgery~ Of course, with the thought of filing a real-expense insurance claim +__+! I had the surgery consultation without worrying about the cost~ For the surgery, I raised the nasal bridge and tip, and had osteotomy, bulbous nose correction, hump correction, columella lowering, plus functional procedures, so I also had treatment for rhinitis and deviated septum.... Writing it out like this.. it really was not a simple nose surgery lol;
For the nasal tip cartilage, only septal cartilage was used! They said that if there seemed to be insufficient septal cartilage, ear cartilage might also be used, but they said septal cartilage alone was enough~
The itchy, dry, tingling phase has already all passed~ Now the director said it would still be good to do nasal irrigation at home whenever I have time after surgery, so I am just doing nasal irrigation separately~
I think there is almost no nose swelling now~ whether looking from the outside or inside lol The skin texture has softened a lot, and at first the nasal tip was quite hard too, but it has softened a lot, and I think it has become so natural that it is hard to believe I had surgery lol
It has been 1 year since facial contouring, but my nose still has not reached 1 year yet lol; I hope my nose reaches 1 year soon too lol
