I had non-open rhinoplasty on my nasal tip in March, but they made it way too high, so I had an early correction at 2 weeks. Maybe the cartilage tie was too tight too, because it feels pinched. The height was adjusted, and from the side it honestly does not look like I had surgery at all, but from the front it feels pinched.. especially on one side more.. it is tied in a V shape, so it looks even stranger when I talk or smile. The doctor is aware of this too, so they did say we could talk about reoperation after at least 3 months. I saw a comment on a reel that said when you raise the tip, you inevitably have to tie the tip cartilage, and if you put something on top of that, then over time the material cannot hold up and, because of skin tension, it either sinks or becomes visible, and one of the two is bound to happen .... I am thinking about whether I should just remove everything and ask them to release the cartilage once the tissue has recovered for around 3 to 6 months. If I do not say I had surgery, no one would know. Even my parents do not know, they just think it was contouring or something and let it pass like,
