My natural nose was slightly upturned, with my nostrils visible from the front, but that was always stressful, and when I took photos, all I could see was my nose, so I hated it. Still, I had read so many posts about the risks of rhinoplasty and things like that, and I’m a scaredy-cat, so I hadn’t thought about getting nose surgery. But with thoughts like, “I only live once, how would it feel to live with the nose I want?” I felt troubled. Looking for a clinic was also a problem, and even if there was a clinic people said was good, there were always success and failure cases, so I wondered if nose surgery itself was maybe like winning the lottery ㅠㅠ So I went ahead with surgery at a private clinic that only does noses. Maybe because of swelling, I couldn’t even tell whether it went well or not lol After the swelling went down, my nostrils showed no sign of lowering..? haha I didn’t do the bridge, only the nasal tip with septal cartilage. My mindset was, forget the nasal bridge or whatever, I just don’t want my nostrils to show, but what the heck? Other than my nasal tip becoming sharper, not even 1 thing changed lololololol It would be fine if at least my nostrils didn’t show, but after using septal cartilage, I gained nothing, can’t even make a pig nose, and was left with only a stiff nose.
I kept waiting, thinking my nostrils would stop showing if more time passed, and now it’s already month 8. Goodness, when I came to my senses, I found myself looking into revision rhinoplasty? I needed a firm decision.
Once again..? Since they say this place is good, should I try it..? While I was thinking that, even for people whose surgery had gone well at the time, when I looked at removal reviews, there were things like, “It was fine for 20 years, then suddenly I developed contracture,” etc. ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Suddenly, after being fine for 20 years? What was even worse was that there was also a post saying contracture happened after 30 years..
Ah, is there nothing permanent about nose surgery? If I get revision surgery, what if I end up looking into a third, fourth, fifth revision in the distant future? A horrifying thought.. So I’m looking into nasal implant/cartilage removal~! haha
