It’s been about 6 months since I resolved my complex about my nose, which I thought of as a bulbous nose by my own standards~! It had that bulbous-nose feel and looked a bit spread out, and more than anything, it wasn’t slim ㅠㅠ I wanted it to look sharper... and for the nasal tip to be somehow high and defined, so I researched rhinoplasty a ton, chose a doctor, and got the surgery done~
With the nose, the stuffiness really can’t be helped until the splint is removed; When I had the splint on, even washing my face was a bit inconvenient... But I think that’s something anyone who has had rhinoplasty has no choice but to accept lol
For me, most of the major swelling had gone down by week 2, so by around week 3? when I met my friends, they said my facial features had become much more defined~ When checking my progress, the doctor also said that considering I had osteotomy, my recovery seemed noticeably fast ㅎ They said I’d be able to see almost the final shape at around 1 month~
But they say with any surgery, it takes about 6 months? or so to fully recover, so I held out patiently for 6 months~ and now I’m finally posting my nose lol
This was my first nose surgery~ I had the nasal bridge and nasal tip done, using silicone and septal cartilage + ear cartilage, and additionally I had osteotomy and bulbous nose correction too~
When I was getting nose surgery, all my focus was only on the nasal tip.. So honestly I wondered a bit whether osteotomy? was really necessary... But after listening to the doctor... and getting it done... I think osteotomy... is essential lol I mean... if only the nasal tip is made slim and lifted... but the nasal bridge still looks blunt as before, that wouldn’t work lol
I chose the doctor well ㅠ And of course, thanks to the doctor doing the surgery well too ㅠ I think I successfully escaped my bulbous nose~ what do you think~?
