Nose surgery process 8 years ago I had my first surgery done without an open incision, using silicone and ear cartilage. I had the surgery at a hospital in Gyeonggi Province, and the director who operated on me wasn't listed in the hospital information anymore Since a lot of time had already passed, I didn't ask about aftercare. I had silicone removed without an open incision from Director Oh Seung-il at V-N, and at the same time proceeded with revision rhinoplasty using ear cartilage. Because the nasal bone had become irregular, I also had it corrected while restoring it as minimally as possible.
Reason for silicone removal When you actually looked at my face, all you could see was my nose. The silicone had that much presence. (My nose looked a bit bridge-heavy....) Not only the shape, but a few weeks ago small pimples started repeatedly appearing on the tip of my nose. At first I wondered if it was because of my period, or because I was tired, so I managed my condition and ate well, but they kept disappearing and coming back;; Once the redness reached the tip of my nose, people around me started asking if contracture had set in, which made me really anxious. When I took antibiotics, the pimples would disappear only for that moment, and then come back whenever I forgot about them, so I started wanting the silicone removed.
Conclusion ▶️ While removing the silicone, I really wanted to correct my nose again into a straight-but-slightly-sloped shape So I searched through plastic surgery apps to find out more.
Revision consultation First of all, the reason I chose this place out of so many plastic surgery clinics!!!!!! 1. Silicone removal without an open incision is possible 2. The straight nose shape is so pretty (they show it with virtual surgery, and they really tailored it carefully to my opinion) 3. During the consultation, the director said they could further improve my nose shape here, or keep it simple as it was. Right from the start, they explained multiple options rather than just one, and that felt professional 4. There are many reviews of non-open-incision procedures (maybe the most important.....)
In fact, after the revision surgery there were several hurdles (having to remove the tape by myself, people asking if I got hurt because of the bruising under my eyes......), but recovery felt easier than after the first surgery.... Maybe because everything I wanted was possible without an open incision? Thanks to that, there is no columella scar, the anxiety about silicone is gone, and I no longer get the frequent pimples on my nose;; < all the things I wanted were satisfied
One thing I regret is that follow-up checks and treatment here take way too long;; They take photos every time I go, and there is waiting time too.... The director does examine things carefully, but even when I tried to go get treatment during my lunch break, the time just didn't work out, so I could only go once It's a shame I couldn't get all the swelling management...... Still, people around me said that for a non-open-incision revision rhinoplasty, this is excellent, and praised me for doing well lol.... I want to keep living with this nose for a long time
