It’s my first surgery for a bulbous nose, and I went to 4 consultations today, but every clinic said something different, so I’m confused.. Two clinics said my nose is on the short side and recommended autologous costal cartilage/donated costal cartilage, while the other two said my septal cartilage length is adequate and recommended septal cartilage + ear cartilage. At the place that suggested using only septal cartilage + ear cartilage, since I’m still pretty young (just became an adult), the director said that even if the shape I want comes out a little less, they recommend going in a safer direction. At the place that suggested using costal cartilage, they said that if only septal cartilage is used, it could collapse later, so a column needs to be built with a stronger cartilage material to raise it as much as I want, and that a slim shape would definitely come out. The consultation with the director who said to use only septal cartilage was much more detailed, and I liked that they seemed to prioritize safety while considering my overall image and age, but somehow I also feel like the latter might be better at creating the slim and pretty shape I want.. I’m planning to visit about 6 more places next week, but since every clinic I went to today talked differently about the materials and also about my facial proportions, I really can’t judge… What criteria should I use to choose? (•̥̥̥⌓•̥̥̥)
히히망 I was confused too when I went to three or four places, but after visiting a few more, I feel like things started to become a little clearer! There’s no single right answer, since every director pursues a different aesthetic.. Some may also be safety-oriented,, The materials are naturally different, and the surgical methods differ too.. Maybe you can think through each material, surgical method, and the post-op line, then go with the place you feel is right for you..
삼삼이 [@Heeheemang] I see, I should keep visiting more places and think it over.. Choosing a clinic isn’t easy either
히히망 [@] It must be tough... Honestly, I still don’t really know either haha... But people say that if you go around a lot, there will be a place you feel strongly drawn to..! I really hope you find a good place!!
냐야야오러어융 Where did you get consultations?

자이언트명 [@] I see.. I should try to visit as many places as possible. Thank you!!
룰랄릴룰 I’m worrying about the same thing Which places did you get consultations at??
냐야야오러어융 [@] Thank youuu!!! hehe
유라마마 I also went to three places, and all three said different things, so I’m really confused.. Cosmetic surgery depends most on your own judgment, but I think it’s so hard for me because making my own judgment is too difficult
