They explained the issue I had been concerned about.
The tip of my nose was what worried me most. As time passed, it had become hard and felt tight when I smiled...
When I asked whether this was an early sign of contracture, they said it was not severe contracture yet, but the cartilage support had weakened, so the timing was not bad for revision surgery.
They also honestly said that using only ear cartilage was not always the best approach, and that using rib cartilage could be more stable depending on the situation.
I trusted them more because they did not casually say, “Ear cartilage is enough~.”
I liked that they did not push an excessive design.
Honestly, with revision surgery, you get ambitious, right?
“Since I am having it done again, maybe make it higher and more refined...”
But the director said firmly:
“If you raise the height further from the current nose, it will not become a pretty nose; it will be a nose with a high chance of developing problems.”
Hearing that really brought me back to reality... so I am postponing surgery for now T_T
