It wasn't severe, but I did have a slight hump nose, and the most serious thing was that my nasal bridge was way too low.. Especially since I don't have much facial fat, and then even my nasal bridge was absent, my face had no volume at all and felt completely flat and pressed down, and makeup couldn't cover the lack of volume eitherㅠㅠ
So I decided to have surgery, and it's now been 3 months since I had surgery using silicone, septal cartilage, and donated costal cartilage. I also had another surgery while getting my nose surgery! I got it thinking, since I'm doing it anyway, let's finish everything at once, but the swelling, bruising, and my eyes had blood bruises.. recovery was hard. The bruising lasted about 2 weeks, and for swelling management I took walks and used warm/cold compresses whenever I could. If you include the residual swelling, I think time is the answer. Major swelling seems like it can go down well if you pay it a bit of attention, and for residual swelling, time is the key!!! And after experiencing it, I do think there are definite pros and cons to doing surgeries together at once versus separately,.
Anyway, after surgery my nasal bridge became much higher, so my image really changed a lot. If before I had a somewhat unsophisticated feeling, now I feel a bit more feminine and mature??? These days, I'm also enjoying taking photos of my face, and I even ask others to take photos of me, and I think my confidence has gone up compared to before.
