Before<Before>After<1 year later>After<Immediately after surgery>After<1 day later>After<2 weeks later>After<1 year later>This is a clinic I found after seeing someone on YouTube with a nose shape similar to mine who had very natural alar base reduction, then asking them through Instagram DM. Before doing it, honestly I didn’t even look into other places and just trusted my gut and had surgery right away haha;; Thinking about it now, it was so reckless, but I’m glad it still turned out well. Three days after surgery, I had the stitches removed, and from then on the swelling started to go down little by little. Honestly, my swelling went down extremely asymmetrically, so for almost a week I just held onto the mirror, couldn’t sleep, and spent the time crying. Since it was my first cosmetic surgery, I was so worried, thinking, what if my nose stays asymmetrical like this, what if it becomes a puffy swollen pig nose? It was so, so hard, to the point that I searched for people with similar experiences in cafes, messaged all of them, and KakaoTalked them. At that time, other people all said it would be fine once the swelling went down, but since the nose in the mirror was actually uneven, I couldn’t hear anything anyone said.
But they were all right. After about 2 weeks, the swelling all went down, and the asymmetrical nose returned to normal. haha In case there are people with similar worries to mine, I’m leaving this review about uneven swelling.
In conclusion, I’m satisfied, satisfied, extremely satisfied with the surgery. It was reduced very naturally, just as I wanted, and the nose shape did not change. Before, even my index finger could easily fit into my nostril, but now, even after a year has passed, only one segment of my little finger can fit in haha And there is no scar at all. No one knows I had surgery. haha
Also, the consultant and director were so kind, and I’m really grateful. When the swelling was going down unevenly, I had nowhere to put my mind and was so worried that I kept contacting them, and they comforted me with warm words and kept reassuring me. When I went to see them in person, they examined me with great care, so I felt even more reassured. Also, at one point while sleeping, I accidentally hit my nose hard in the wrong way, and it bled and opened up. Even though I KakaoTalked them early in the morning, they quickly replied and told me to come right away, and the director also immediately went into a resuturing procedure. It was truly a clinic I could trust and leave things to as a patient in many ways.
Thanks to them, I’m doing well with a prettier nose. Thank you!
