<Pre-surgery photo><Post-surgery photo>I looked at so many reviews and also went to several places for consultations, but first, what I felt after getting rhinoplasty.. What I felt most strongly was that reviews aren’t everything.. Photos are probably the same, but everyone thinks differently, and a point that someone liked can feel like a drawback to someone else. At the same time, review content I saw as a drawback might actually work better for me than expected.. How do you figure all of that out? You can’t just research online.. Don’t think the world inside this community is everything; you have to go around in person From how the staff treat you when you make a reservation, to comparing every single thing the director says when you go, and how the staff treat people coming out after surgery and the people sitting there, etc.. I hope you look carefully at their attitude too.. Based on what you felt, whether it fits the standards you really consider important. I thought it was important to clearly set standards like, I can compromise on this, but I can’t compromise on that.. Looking at reviews, taking celebrity photos, and saying “Please make it exactly like this,” then basically if the director doesn’t listen to me, writing a review like “They don’t reflect opinions here~”.. Don’t do that. Use photos only as references.. but make sure to go to the hospital and ask them to show you before-and-after photos.. They should have photos taken inside the hospital collected for progress tracking or whatever. Those probably won’t be Photoshopped and were probably taken with something like a DSLR? so make sure! to check those Anyway.. as I went around for consultations, I realized, ah, the nose I want might not suit me, and meeting a really honest director would benefit me. I thought that would be a good way for me to spend my own money and get surgery well (of course, this applies to me, so everyone can set different standards) Not “Please make this exact nose!” but a director with aesthetic sense who can suggest what direction would suit me better when I say I want to do it this way, and who can make it similar at least and find a nose shape that suits me. And other surgeries, well, there aren’t many plastic surgery clinics that professionally do only noses! However, I came to think it’s actually good if the hospital has a director who is mainly in charge of nose surgeries. They would have specialized knowledge about the nose and probably have done many surgeries, whether revision or primary, so they’d have plenty of career experience and hands-on experience.. For that, you can look into their career history, and while searching reviews, figuring out who had surgery with which director is also one method.. As a result, I’m currently satisfied with my nose, and I used silicone and AlloDerm. The way it absorbs also looks natural, and it still remains defined, so I think it’s okay
This review is a surgical review pursuing a natural-yet-refined look.
