Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo

I had rhinoplasty 4 years ago because of a hump nose, and now I’m looking into implant removal…

The two photos on the left are after surgery, and the photo on the right is before surgery... Before surgery, because of the hump, when I took a front-facing photo my nose looked bent...ㅠㅠ

===----------------------------------------- When I go somewhere bright, I can see a line at the tip-end of the silicone... So whenever I’m in a bright place, it always bothers me... I think that was what stressed me out the most... Even so, I had just been living with it, thinking it was what it was, but recently I went for an eye consultation and during the consultation I asked about my nose...

When I asked if removal was possible, they said it was... Then... I thought, ah, now isn’t the time for me to be looking into eyes... The visible line is one thing... but I think the psychological part is the biggest... Someday I’ll have to get revision surgery... shouldn’t I do it before inflammation develops... Or I keep thinking, what if I injure my nose while joking around... At the time of surgery, maybe because they didn’t shave down enough of the hump.. it doesn’t really look like I had surgery, so even after surgery people around me didn’t notice... People I know say why do surgery now, do it later... Honestly, unless my skin really gets thin and it becomes noticeable... unless inflammation develops, I probably wouldn’t have surgery... But honestly I don’t want to wait until then ㅠㅠ It feels too late...

- Anyway, when I went to a hospital that is supposedly fairly famous and asked about my nose, they talked about things like osteotomizing my flat nasal bridge and narrowing my nostrils because my alae are large............ When I looked into it, osteotomy is risky too... now I’m just scared of surgery and all of that... It also feels like they’re doing it just to make money..

When I had surgery, they shaved the hump through a closed approach, and the nasal tip was done with ear cartilage... During the consultation they said the hump could grow... so I forced myself to get silicone placed... I didn’t really know that ear cartilage would go into the nasal tip ㅠ_ㅠ.. Even if they explained it, I think I didn’t listen properly because I was excited about getting surgery... sigh........... The doctor I consulted a few days ago said that with a closed approach, the hump often isn’t shaved well, so it seems like they placed silicone over it... (Even when I look at it in person, it doesn’t seem 100% shaved down.. Is that why people say it looks natural;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;)

The director who did my surgery is now at another hospital... Honestly, it would be good to have it done by that doctor... but I also want to do it at a hospital with good word of mouth...

★ When I asked on the board.. They answered, “It is best to decide the surgical method depending on the condition, but simply removing the implant is not such a good method. Surgery could be done in a way that replaces the implant and adds artificial dermis over it, or more simply, fat injection around the implant could also be considered, so it is best to check accurately and decide.” ..

Looking at the answer, saying to add artificial dermis... or inject fat........ I don’t trust whether they’re saying that to make money.. or because my nose was shaved strangely ......

It was a big hump nose... if the silicone is 3.5-4 mm.. then they must have shaved a lot, right?ㅠㅠ

1. Anyway, for those who had hump nose surgery and removed silicone + cartilage, how was it? Honestly I don’t really care about the nasal bridge... but the nasal tip bothers me... Should I remove all the implants and get nostril reduction? Or have surgery to make the nasal tip slimmer?"?

2. Also, if they say the hump wasn’t shaved enough, do I need to have it shaved...(they said there would be an additional cost...) If I just have surgery without shaving it, will it be very noticeable after surgery...........

3. For those who looked into removal hospitals ... what criteria did you use to choose a hospital? A hospital with good word of mouth? Or the feeling from the consultation with the director? Even hospitals with good word of mouth... all seem like ads... I can’t trust any of them... How should I decide.. Or please recommend one ㅠㅠ
