I had mine removed after 5 months and got the columella stitches taken out ~~ The scar is less worrying than I expected,, and I’m so happy
So far nothing is lifting~ My nose is soft and squishy, and I really like the shape too. It’s round, and even though the bridge is low, it looks natural and nice It hasn’t been long since surgery, so I haven’t tried things like a piggy nose, but when I wash my face, just not having that hardness... makes me so happy~! Oh, and on the ceiling of my nostrils, that scar-tissue-like thing,,,, the thing many people think is scar tissue was actually because the alar cartilage had drooped.. After surgery that also improved a lot, so my nasal tip feels light and breathing is comfortable too (it didn’t disappear 100%, but it feels like 70% went back up) I don’t think I had things like cartilage tying done, just removal I don’t know whether they did repositioning or not. The amount of spreading is just how much my original nose was spread~! It didn’t spread like a Black person’s nose, just like a good-looking Asian bulbous nose ^^ I know what people mean by the nasal bridge being slightly shaved down, but it doesn’t bother me at all~ Because I had alar reduction, it’s also prettier than my old nose~~ I’m not really sure what difference osteotomy makes,,, For those who are going to have removal, don’t worry too much about very detailed things. The overall vibe and impression come back 100%~~ so don’t worry too much
I have chubby cheeks and a round face, and I feel like I found my charm again, so I’m really happy ~^^
