Today is day 14 since my revision rhinoplasty. That's 2 weeks! How things are these days... 1. Really! On cold days!! when I go outside.. My nasal tip feels so cold, almost like it has frostbite, and it aches with a throbbing, stinging feeling When I touch it, it's extremely cold, so I want to put a hot pack on my nasal tip, but I'm afraid my nose will collapse, so I only warm it with my hands 2. I had silicone protrusion + calcium deposits at the starting point of the silicone, and contracture into a short, upturned nose, so at the bridge area where the silicone starts, the calcium was removed, and to change my short nose into a longer nose, the starting point of the nasal bridge (the silicone starting point) was lowered a bit compared to before! Maybe because the silicone starting point was lowered, there was a pocket (empty space) in the upper part of the nasal bridge, so it hurt when I pressed that pocket area, but now it hurts a lot less. Instead, above the starting point of the nasal bridge, when I sometimes feel lumpy flesh? I massage it warmly Then, as if it was never there, the scar tissue gently loosens and disappears? For now, I'm still repeatedly doing warm massage^^ 3. My nasal tip is still sensitive even if my hand lightly touches it, and since it's recovering, I'm being careful. I only wash my face once a day too Since surgery, I still haven't worn sunscreen or makeup! No matter how careful I try to be, when applying it, force still goes into my hand and it touches my nose, so I'm trying to be careful.. It's similar when cleansing too So once a day, I gently massage with cleansing oil and rinse it off as if sprinkling waterㅋㅋㅋㅌ 4. After revision rhinoplasty, I'm always careful, but today I let my guard down and my own hand bumped it lightly three times It's not causing any issue, but even when it only touches as if very lightly bumping it, seeing that a dazed, stinging ache continues for a few seconds! Even if the outside looks fine! I think, it's still very much in the middle of recovering!^^ 5. The inside on both sides of the columella is still red^^;; Even now, when I apply ointment with a cotton swab, dissolvable sutures come off on it and stuff.. Anyway, this is my revision rhinoplasty status up to week 2!
