In 2013, because my nose was so ugly, and because my mom pressured me that it would be so nice if I just changed my nose, I went to the hospital, received a consultation, and had surgery right away. Before surgery, my nose looked like I’d been punched in the face, so it looked like I had no noseㅋㅋㅋㅋ My nasal bone itself was spread out, making my face look wide. I liked a nose that didn’t look obvious, so I chose the lowest silicone, shaved down the spread-out bone, and raised the tip with cartilage from inside my nose. (They said my nose was so ugly that they couldn’t do it with ear cartilage....)
Before surgery, I ate a thumbnail-sized piece of chocolate snack, so they couldn’t put me into deep sleep anesthesia. That’s why I woke up in the middle of the operation ^_^ I woke up right when they were hammering in the silicone, cried my eyes out, and made a scene asking for more anesthesia, and I gave the doctor a hard time,,, If I hadn’t eaten that chocolate snack..... I still don’t eat that snack even now. People say it hurts a lot after surgery, but I must have a body that takes surgery well, because aside from having trouble breathing and feeling stuffy, it didn’t hurt at all. If someone said they’d give me a free, pretty revision surgery, I could do it again... it didn’t hurt that much... The most painful thing was taking out the gauze ㅠㅠ Seriously, other people said it felt refreshing when the gauze came out, but for me it hurt so much I criedㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
The bruising lasted a week, and the swelling went away in four days, so even the doctor was surprisedㅋㅋㅋ He said he’d never seen someone’s swelling go down that fast. Maybe it was because I made and drank homemade old pumpkin juice. Even the minor swelling took about a year. At the time, the doctor said it would be fine to make it 1 mm higher and that it wouldn’t be obvious, and I wish I had listened. Looking at old photos, my nose was prettiest around 10 months after surgery?
My boyfriend had rhinoplasty for rhinitis this time. But because so much time passed since my surgery, I ended up writing such a long, rambling post while searching what it’s like these days.
