Before<Before>Before<Before>After<After>After<After>I started going around for consultations from June-July, kept thinking it over, and the surgery got delayed, so I finally had it done this month. I just got the splint removed and took these photos. I originally planned to have surgery using only septal cartilage, but they said they would check the size of my septal cartilage in the operating room, and if it wasn’t enough, they might use costal cartilage. I guess my septal cartilage wasn’t enoughㅜㅜ Looking at the photo, it really was small.. (All the clinics I consulted at had recommended costal cartilage) In the end, donated costal cartilage was used ㅜㅜ What I wanted was mainly a somewhat naturally glamorous line. For consultations too, I went to several clinics that mainly do naturally glamorous lines.
I just got the splint removed, so there are some blood scabs and my nose is a bit swollen (they said it isn’t very swollen for being one week post-op). I’d be grateful if you could just look at how the line might settle. To my eyes it looks okay, but if the swelling goes down like this, will it become much lower?? I want the line to stay as it is, and just the area between the eyebrows to look a little more natural ㅠㅠ It would be nice if the nasal tip came down just very slightly too...ㅋㅋ Am I being too greedy??
For reference, 4.5 mm silicone was used!! I bought an anti-inflammatory spray and an anti-adhesion agent, and I hope it maintains well like this without needing revision surgeryㅠㅠ Also, rhinoplasty wasn’t as painful as I expected. The swelling too.. But not being able to breathe because of the nasal packing is hard and frustrating... My mouth keeps getting dry, so lip balm is essential...
