It’s been about 3~4 months since I had revision rhinoplasty using autologous costal cartilage to make it more glamorous~! Maybe because it’s winter weather, even though it was revision rhinoplasty, I can feel that the swelling is going down quickly~ When I went to see the director for the final progress check, the director actually said that the swelling was going down much faster than expected, so he himself felt proud ㅋㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌ But honestlyㅋㅋ I get the feeling the director likes my nose more than I do...?ㅋ During the progress check, his tone and actions seemed like he was more satisfied ㅋㅌㅋㅌ I didn’t show itㅋㅋ but seeing that kind of nuanceㅋㅋ I feel like my satisfaction just went up on its own
For my first surgery, the goal was to raise my low nose, but the main goal of this revision rhinoplasty was to make it a little sharper~ and most of all, more glamorous~
Since it was a revision surgery, I was honestly more worried that it might get ruined or become worse, so early on, whenever I felt even a little pain or tingling, I would go to the mirror and check so much, but thankfully, unlike my worries, the director explained everything well, so I was able to get away from unnecessary worries~
Really, not only rhinoplasty but all surgeries ㅠ I think they start with overcoming that kind of worry ㅠ Since it’s maintaining well for about 3~4 months now~ I hope it stays like this for 6 months, no, 1 year, no.. much, much longer ㅋㅌ
Oh right, a lot of people asked how the pain from autologous costal cartilage was. The first week? For about 3~4 days, it was honestly uncomfortable every time I lay down and got up~ Then after about 7 days, I think there weren’t major limitations in movement, and at 2 weeks, it hurt a little when I laughed out loudㅋㅋ At 3 weeks? If I sat in the office for a long time, it felt a bit stiff? like that, but from 1 month onward, honestly I didn’t notice it~
For my revision rhinoplasty, I had the nasal bridge, nasal tip, autologous costal cartilage, osteotomy, and columella lowering done~!
