My original nose was an ordinary nose. Because my nasal bridge was high, people didn’t really notice, but I disliked that my nasal tip had a round feel. When I took photos, it looked round and shiny? When I asked other people, they didn’t really know, but I could only see that, so from age 20, I lived thinking about it for 10 years. I was scared, so I couldn’t even think about surgery, and since it didn’t interfere with my life, I just lived feeling satisfied (side effects were my biggest worry..) Then one of my friends suddenly had nose surgery. She was a friend who always got filler, but after removing the filler and having surgery, it looked natural and she had no side effects, so I became interested again. Because that friend had always gotten filler, her surgical result didn’t look dramatically different, just about “oh, she had surgery?” Since she removed the filler and put in an implant..
After hearing my friend’s opinion, I had a consultation at the same place last November. First of all, unlike other places (I had received consultations here and there a few times in the past), they didn’t speak vaguely or have a nuance of trying to gloss over results or side effects. I liked their attitude of speaking firmly, explaining, and consulting in detail, so I trusted them. (You can do this, don’t do that, even if you do this much it won’t be dramatic so why do it, the surgery will be done like this and this part like that, etc.) I got a good impression from the consultant who did the first consultation (she seemed experienced), and the second consultation was with the specialist. (They said that since my nose has a high bridge and is ordinary, there wouldn’t be a big difference after surgery. That made me trust them more.)
After receiving 2 consultations with the doctor over two to three months, I set a date and had surgery. (I still couldn’t decide because I was worried about side effects...)
I’m very satisfied now. I didn’t want to do the nasal bridge, but they said that to lift the nasal tip and match it with my forehead line, the bridge also had to be raised slightly, so I had surgery to raise it a little and define the nasal tip.
Aftercare went well, and because I also managed it carefully, I have had no side effects at all, and I’m living very comfortably with it like it’s my own nose now. Of course, I also often hear that my side profile is pretty and that my overall vibe has changed.
I keep thinking I should have done it sooner.
I hid it from people around me, then met my friends after surgery like “ta-da,” but no one noticed. Just that my vibe had changed and I looked more refined? My mother also....... didn’t know..; She just said, “Something feels a little different?” It was the degree of change I wanted, so I’m living very satisfied now.
