I had it removed yesterday, 2 years after surgery. Donor costal cartilage strut removal Silicone removal They said they did not remove the piece of septal cartilage that had been placed on top. I had it removed at the hospital where I had the surgery. The reason for removal was psychological pressure, tightness and pulling in the nasal bridge, leaning, and other strange sensations that continued until I reached the point where I couldn’t live normally, so I had it removed. I asked after the removal, and they said there was no inflammation -_- I guess that’s a relief. I have no idea why I was feeling those symptoms. As I posted before-and-after cosmetic surgery photos previously, I had a severely upturned nose and absolutely no nasal bridge, so after surgery I was very satisfied. Even after surgery, it wasn’t high and it was still an upturned nose, but it was better than before, so I liked it. Maybe because of that, unlike other people, after removal it doesn’t feel all that refreshing. Once the swelling goes down and the shape appears, I think I’ll have a mental breakdownㅜ Right now it’s taped and splinted, so I can’t really tell the shape. Only my nose is swollen. I have no bruising, and nowhere else is swollen. One good thing after removal is that I no longer have to worry anxiously about possible complications, and since I’m planning a pregnancy now, it’s nice that after having a baby I’ll be able to rub my face against the baby’s face lol I’m nervous even after removal. During the contraction phase, I wonder if it might lift more severely than before, and what if contracture happens again? I’m having all kinds of thoughts. I’m scaredㅜ At the hospital, they said repositioning means that when they remove the strut, they untie the alar cartilages that had been tied together, remove the strut, and tie the alar cartilages again. I think this process may be repositioning. Is that right? If this is correct, they say that when a strut is removed, they always do it like that, so what is it when they charge several million won saying they’ll do repositioning during removal? Or maybe not lol If I have one wish right now, it’s please, I hope my nose doesn’t turn upwardㅜㅜ
