Even though I had already had nose surgery once, the tip was blunt, and as time passed it started to look more and more distorted, like it was being pressed down, so I looked into revision surgery.. The bridge was high, but the tip had dropped, so I had both the bridge and tip revised. In my case, I needed cartilage, and I thought using my own costal cartilage would be safer than donor cartilage, so I used autologous costal cartilage. The line from the bridge to the tip came out well-balanced and smooth, so I’m very satisfied haha I didn’t want a Pinocchio-like nose that sticks up sharply, and even with autologous costal cartilage I wanted a natural feel, but the line is clearly defined without being excessive and still natural, so even after a year it’s holding up really well. From the first consultation through the surgery and follow-up visits, DL took such good care of me that I think I recovered well without feeling anxious haha If you want a luxurious, well-cared-for feeling, this seems like a good fit!
