After <after surgery> Before <before surgery> Before <before surgery> After <after surgery> After <after surgery>Ever since I was young, my nostrils were very large and upturned, so I was teased a lot. During puberty, I tried losing weight and changing my makeup style, but the shape did not change, so it was a major concern for me. When I became a high school student and my nose shape had mostly settled, whenever I took photos with friends... or took photos with my family, only my nose stood out. One nostril looked much too large, like they were uneven, and the other came out in a strange shape, so no matter how many times I retook photos, I realized it was not an issue with the angle. After becoming an adult, I casually took a photo of my nostrils in the bathroom and was shocked because my nostrils were large compared with my face, and the difference in nostril size was also extremely severe. So I looked into nose surgery, but the surgery felt much scarier than I expected, and thinking about the possibility that it might not turn out well made me very anxious. I researched a lot, really a lot, and decided on a hospital. On the day of surgery, since this was my first cosmetic surgery, I was worried it might hurt a lot. But the director and nurses checked everything for me right up until the surgery, and even during anesthesia they were so kind that all the things I had been worried about disappeared. On the first day, my eyes were the most swollen. Until the cotton packing was removed, breathing was very difficult, but on day 2 they removed the cotton right away, disinfected the area, and I did cold compresses along with walks, so it improved a lot. At first my eyes were very swollen, but as the bruising gradually moved downward, by day 3 the swelling had moved down below my cheeks. As the swelling gradually went down and my face started coming back, I felt so excited and thrilled. From day 5, the inside of my nose swelled and caused nasal congestion, so it was hard to breathe, but by the one-week mark when the splint was removed, a lot of the facial swelling and swelling inside the nose had gone down, so both my appearance and breathing became more comfortable. After the splint was removed, I saw my nose line, and it came out exactly as the line I wanted, so first of all I was really happy. Now it has been two months since surgery, and almost all the swelling is gone. I have no discomfort at all in daily life. Also, the more the swelling goes down, the more my nose shape settles, becoming much slimmer, and I feel like the line is getting prettier and prettier. Before surgery, my nose was very crooked, but that part has also improved a lot, and I am satisfied because the line looks pretty from every angle, both front and side. I heard that usually all the minor residual swelling goes down by 6 months, and I am really curious how it will look once even the very slight swelling is completely gone.
