I finally reached 1 month since my nose surgery! I was really stressed out by my small, bulbous nose and my hump nose, but wow, my nose could get this refined too? I went bold and chose autologous costal cartilage from the very first surgery, and I think it was the right choice!! Honestly, before surgery I was really scared of the material itself called autologous costal cartilage. I couldn't even imagine what my nose shape would be like at the one-month mark, so I searched through reviews every single day Choosing to use rib cartilage from the first nose surgery was also a burden... But when I got my consultation with Director Choo Seong-cheol at D-Day, he said my nasal skin was thick and that because I had a bulbous nose, I would likely need support, so he recommended autologous costal cartilage! But now that a month has passed, I deeply understand why he recommended it! It's not even worth mentioning how cleanly the hump on the bridge was shaved down, and as the swelling went down, the nasal tip felt slimmer and more refined? From the front, the wide bulbous-nose look has really been controlled, so I'm feeling very relieved for now The bridge feels completely firm and fixed, with absolutely no tip drooping! The donor site from the autologous costal cartilage harvest healed much faster than I expected! At first, when I coughed or got up, I felt little stinging pokes and made groaning sounds, but now it hardly bothers me in daily life, just a slight pulling feeling sometimes? Thankfully, the scar is in a place hidden by clothes, so it really isn't a burden! People around me have also been saying I got so much prettier, so I'm feeling pretty proud Recovery was much easier than the things I was worried about, so a weight has been lifted off my shoulders There are probably people like me who keep searching for reviews every day because of a bulbous nose and a hump nose, right? I really think the answer is to visit a lot of clinics, do thorough research, and find the material and doctor that fit your nose perfectly! Even if it's scary and overwhelming at first, once you go clinic to clinic, the right feeling really does come to you!
