When I see people born with a slim nose, I am honestly jealous! My own nose always had a slightly flattened overall look, and there was also a subtle hump, so both the front view and side profile felt kind of awkward T_T On top of that, my nostrils and tip were on the blunt side, so my whole face looked a bit stuffy overall, and when I smiled or made a big expression, my nose looked even wider, which was oddly stressful... But I also did not want a nose that was obviously high and flashy T_T Rather than a fancy straight-from-the-forehead look, I just wanted something natural that would suit my face? So I went to several consultations while looking for a natural result, and Dr. Chu Seong-cheol at [Clinic A] pointed out exactly what I wanted.. The review photos were also exactly the nose shape I had wanted, so I chose Dr. Chu Seong-cheol!!I kept saying I did not want a style that looked too obvious, and I liked that there was no atmosphere of pushing me to make it higher or more flashyThey shaped it in a way that made it look naturally slimmer overall! The surgery included 4 mm of bridge augmentation, and the tip used donor rib plus septal cartilageWe also did bulbous nose correction, hump correction, and cartilage binding! I chose donor rib because it is less burdensome than autologous rib, but they said it is still fine for providing tip support!!I am at 2 weeks now, so the swelling and the firm feeling at the tip are still there, and my smile feels a little awkward, but still, the feeling that my nose looks wide has been reduced a lot, and as the hump area has been cleaned up, the side profile also feels less uneven!I think I will need to wait for more swelling to go down, and by around the 1-month mark it will probably look even more natural, so I am waiting!!
