My original nose wasn’t extremely unusual or a major insecurity, so I deliberated a lot before deciding on revision surgery. I worried that if I had it done again, it might turn out worse than before. So even until the surgery, I think I was more worried than excited. After careful deliberation and consultations, I decided to have nose surgery with Dr. Kim Daehwa at Lowell Plastic Surgery. In particular, my skin is thin and doesn’t stretch well, so I was even more worried that creating a pretty nasal-tip shape would be difficult. But I feel Dr. Kim operated according to the condition of my nose. In the end, he shaped and lifted the tip beautifully, and I’m very satisfied. It doesn’t feel like it was simply made high; it looks natural with my face while the tip has become clearly prettier, exactly matching what I wanted. I worried that I might be meddling unnecessarily with a revision, but now I’m so satisfied that those worries feel meaningless. I’m still recovering, so it will probably look more natural with time, but the result is already better than I expected, and I feel happy every time I look in the mirror haha. People like me, whose noses aren’t particularly abnormal but who have small areas they wish were better, probably have many worries about revision too. In the end, I think it was a good decision to have Dr. Kim operate on me. I like the natural result and the beautifully shaped tip the most :)

I originally had no nasal bridge and was worried about my wide nose and nostrils! I wanted a natural straight-sloped line, and they designed it to suit my face perfectly!! The tip is still slightly blunt because the swelling hasn’t gone…

My side profile had always looked... not great because of the hump, but I didn’t want to make my nose very high either lol. I thought a natural straight line suited men’s noses better, so I had surgery without an implant. It was done…
Nose Surgery Reviews@rhino-reviewOct 22 Two-week review after revision rhinoplasty following L-shaped silicone removal
This was my third revision rhinoplasty. My previous surgeries weren’t because of complications; during my first surgery, the hospital suggested replacing the silicone, so they opened my nose twice, and only recently did I discover that an…

I do not recommend getting a nose surgery here… I went because I saw someone I know who had another surgery here, but my nose became crooked, and the shape is not great either. (I had surgery without an implant.) I am looking into revision
