Review of my first nose surgery with Director Noh Bong-il at Glovi
On January 29, I had the nasal bridge (Fitme silicone 2 mm), nasal tip (septal support strut, point shaping with ear cartilage), osteotomy, and nasal dorsum refinement done, and now a lot of the swelling has gone down.
The surgery turned out so natural that acquaintances who know my original face say I do not really need to mention that I had rhinoplasty, and people meeting me for the first time do not notice. I am most satisfied that my droopy nasal tip was naturally raised, and I have also been told a few times that I have the celebrity-like vibe I wanted before surgery, so I feel good.. (It does sound a bit like bragging, though..)
At first, when the splint was removed, I did feel a little regret, wondering what it would have been like if I had made the silicone just 1 or 2 mm higher, but I think it would have looked a bit obvious if I had, so I do not really think that anymore.
I still feel like there is swelling in the glabella area, so when I look under bright light, it gives a slightly frowning (?) impression, but I heard swelling can gradually go down for up to 6 months, so I am going to wait and see!
My nasal tip also feels much more comfortable than before, and the pulling sensation is gone! Still, if I accidentally bump it sometimes, it hurts, but this is.. I think it is natural since it has not even been 3 months yet, so I am going to be more careful.
