I had rhinoplasty 8 years ago (in 2014). I was assigned a doctor, so I don’t know who it was I had it because my nostrils were large, my skin was thick, and I didn’t like how they spread when I smiled, but personally I was reluctant to have anything inserted, so I had the nose tip tied up with thread? and lifted it, and (I don’t know the exact name) nostril reduction. The surgery was done under sedation, so by the time I counted and woke up it was already over, which was nice, and the hospital was large and a standalone hospital, so the hygiene and system seemed good. The nose tip surgery was done by cutting from above the philtrum first, and honestly that scar was what I worried about the most, but it’s less visible than I expected. But I guess the nostril reduction part couldn’t be helped The left nostril doesn’t show much, but the right nostril has a little scar, so it’s more noticeable when I wear makeup Maybe because I only had nose tip surgery without bridge augmentation, the tip does have a somewhat curved, han-bun-hyuk-like look, so people sometimes ask if I had nose surgery. It definitely makes it so that pressing on the nose is not possible, and even now it hurts a lot if I bump into something, and since then lying down and breathing has become much more uncomfortable,,, Still, since it’s much better than the outwardly spread pig-nose look, I take comfort in that. It really is hard to become pretty..

I have a friend who did well here, so I visited and basically decided on surgery right away. The explanation about the eyes was only somewhat detailed. It’s a one-doctor clinic and there weren’t many patients, so I could consult right away
