First, I used donor rib cartilage, and I had a glamorous nose with a high nasolabial angle. If you really want to research nose surgery properly, you need to reach level 3 on this community, read everything, filter through open chat rooms and Naver cafes, and study slowly. Personally, I did not have time for that, so I moved quickly. What helped me move quickly most of all was ChatGPT. I quickly studied the important keywords related to the nose, then picked out photos of male celebrities I liked, put those celebrities' noses into ChatGPT, and sorted, analyzed, and figured out the common points and differences. That started to give me a perspective like, I like noses like this and that, and because my mouth and chin are like this, I should get this kind of nose. Luckily, the first plastic surgery clinic I consulted was not exactly my ideal style, but the consultation was good, so it was a good place to study. Based on that, I studied more and visited four more places. But even though I had looked at ChatGPT a bit, when I was in front of the doctor who would actually operate, I did not try to force my opinion too much. I only said that I like this kind of nose and really dislike that kind of nose, and tried to listen to what the doctor said. I said that this is the style I want, but if you think this part should be corrected, I would follow that direction. At first I had planned to use autologous costal cartilage, but I had no time and I hate pain, and based on the information I found, I did not think it was necessary to pay more for a meaningful difference in complication risk, so I went with donor rib cartilage. I will only know after the swelling goes down, but I do wonder what it would have been like if it had been 1 mm higher, though I am satisfied with the nose I have now. One reason I chose the surgeon was that their aesthetic sense was similar to mine (like a T with an F feeling?), and they explained things well and still seemed passionate about nose surgery. It was the same when I had eye surgery, but for me the biggest decision criterion was that even if I went to this surgeon and it failed, I would not regret it, statistically speaking lol. If I do more plastic surgery now, it would be contouring, but I do not think I will do that here. Still, because I feel good after the nose surgery, I came here to level up so I could casually look around for what else there is.
