I was stressed because my nostril wings spread sideways, making my nasal ala look big and my nose look blunt. I wanted to reduce the nasal ala, so I looked for clinics and found one with reviews I liked, then went for a consultation. I thought I would only need alar base reduction, but they said I had to do the columella and alar rim too, so I just made up my mind and did it. If I'm doing it anyway, it's better to do it properly at a good place ... and I didn't want to have surgery twice lol
It's almost been a month now, and recovery has been fast with no swelling or bruising, so honestly I made dinner plans and met friends the same day right away. If it aches slightly, taking medicine makes it go away right away, and there is still a scar, but it's at a level where it doesn't show with makeup? I'm just thinking of it as a breakout lol. The director also gave an honest consultation and didn't pressure me, so I trusted him. He said it wouldn't be definitely dramatic, but it would improve naturally~ and it came out exactly like that, so I'm satisfied. Unless they're really close friends, people don't even know I had surgery, and when I say I did, everyone asks where I got it done lol. The alar base got reduced naturally and my nose seems prettier, so personally I'm quite satisfied, and I really hope this effect lasts a long time~
