• Day of surgery The day I finally had surgery. I was nervous, but since it was a decision I had made after a long time thinking it over, part of me felt relieved. After arriving at the clinic and finishing some simple preparations, I checked the design with the director one last time. He went over the areas I had been concerned about once more, and we finalized the surgical direction while considering harmony with my face shape. • Recovery process For the first few days, I had swelling and bruising, so I stayed home as much as possible and focused on recovery. I applied cold compresses often and took my medication carefully. The pain was not as bad as I expected, and as time passed, the discomfort gradually decreased. About a week later, when the splint was removed and the stitches were taken out, the reflection in the mirror felt so unfamiliar yet fascinating. There was still a lot of swelling, so the exact shape was not fully visible, but it felt much more natural and stable than before. • Feelings about the changes After about a month, my nose line gradually started to settle. What I was most satisfied with was that my nostrils looked less prominent from the front. Before, that part always bothered me whenever I looked in the mirror or at photos, but now I can smile and talk naturally without that concern. My side profile also became much softer than before, and I often heard that my impression looked much calmer thanks to the nasal tip being slightly lowered. I realized for the first time how big a difference it makes to be able to take photos in front of the camera without worrying about angles. • Reactions from people around me People I know often said things like, “Something looks different, but it looks natural,” and “Your impression looks much softer.” Even without bringing up cosmetic surgery myself, I received many positive reactions, which made me feel good. Especially close friends who knew about my concerns with my nose were happy for me, saying, “It turned out so well.” • Satisfaction I only changed my nose, but my mood changes every time I look in the mirror. Beyond the change in appearance, my satisfaction with myself and my confidence have grown. After all that time spent debating whether to have surgery, I now feel it was truly the right choice. I am very grateful to the director, who consulted with me sincerely from beginning to end and approached everything carefully.
