Through an acquaintance’s recommendation, at a plastic surgery clinic in Apgujeong, I only had nose surgery on the bridge of my nose (silicone) and medial epicanthoplasty on my eyes. My nose had a low bridge and a round nasal tip, so to put it nicely, it was a bulbous nose. My eyes were large, though my double eyelids were kind of there but not quite. But my epicanthal folds were severe, and maybe because my nasal bridge was low, my eyes also looked far apart. For a long time, I often heard people say, “If you just get your nose done, you’ll become really pretty.” Maybe because of that, or maybe I was subtly brainwashed into thinking that too -_- I thought I would become pretty if I just had nose surgery. So I went into the surgery I’d been putting off with really high expectations, and finally made the big decision to do it. But the result isn’t good. The area between my eyes is too high, and maybe because I did medial epicanthoplasty too, my eyes look too close together. Like T-ara? Jiyeon. When I look at my side profile, the line going down from my forehead to the nasal bridge is straight. Think Avatar or Jang Keun-suk. Other people, even in photos from 1 week or 2 weeks after surgery, no matter how high the glabella is, when you look from the side, there’s still a curve descending from the forehead to the nasal bridge, but mine is really unnatural. From the front too, because the glabella is so high, it looks artificial... I didn’t even get multiple areas done, I only had silicone inserted, so I’m shocked that my image could change this drastically Before surgery, I had a somewhat cute image, but now that cute image is gone, and because my nose looks longer and my glabella is high, I look harsh. On top of that, the medial epicanthoplasty area is still red... During the consultation, I emphasized naturalness so much. At that time, both the consultant and the director who operated on me said that because my forehead is low, even if they wanted to raise it more, they couldn’t raise it much, so I was even worried that it might look like I hadn’t had surgery at all. Sigh.............. When I went to the clinic last time, the director who operated on me had gone to a regional clinic, so another doctor looked at my nose. He said that because a hard silicone implant was inserted, there is space between the silicone and the nose, and that area needs to adhere for the glabella to sink in. Then he pressed down on my nose firmly and said the silicone was going in, so I should be patient and wait a little longer. I’m living by holding on to those words right now Will it get better after 3 months? Ah, when I go outside, I’m so conscious of people’s gazes, and I really don’t want anyone to see my side profile. As for my eyes, once the wounds heal and the glabella comes down a bit, I think they’ll be okay................ Anyway, this glabella is the problem. I think I’ll wait exactly until 3 months, and if I still look like Avatar then, I’ll have to remove the silicone. Has anyone, like me, been stressed because of a high glabella, but as time passed, the glabella height gradually lowered? Has anyone’s side profile started looking human? Sob sob, please give me hope
