Nose Surgery Reviews

4 nose surgeries,,, but the nasal tip cartilage is still showing through…

They said that when they looked at my nose, the skin of the nasal tip had become thin, causing the nasal cartilage to show through and protrude. They said that if it had been silicone, it would have come out, but that the protruding appearance would not progress any further. In my first surgery, I had silicone and ear cartilage, but only the silicone was removed. The cartilage protruded a lot, so because of this symptom, I had surgery at another hospital. After nose surgery, as the swelling went down, the protruding appearance came back the same way. (The doctor suggested lowering the height of the nasal tip cartilage, and I had the surgery. Only the cartilage height was lowered. At that time, I didn’t know about this condition.) As the swelling went down, the nasal tip cartilage again looked protruded. Currently about 2 years have passed, and I’m planning to have revision surgery again this time at the hospital where I had it done. The doctor has changed to someone else, and they said the surgical method would be to remove the cartilage and cover it with dermis. They said that as a side effect, the nose could change color to brown or blue, and that 3 out of 10 people experience that. While explaining the side effects, they said it is a very risky surgery. I don’t remember hearing this from the doctor, but the woman doing the consultation at the front desk scared me by saying that it would become much worse than it is now. It is a surgery I’m paying a bit more for, but I felt sorry, wondering if I was making things troublesome. Because of that woman, I’m now furious. They tell me that in their view it isn’t severe, so I should just live with it, but only the person going through it knows how big a stress this is and how hard it is. During the day my face is swollen so it’s okay, but as it becomes afternoon and evening, the nasal tip looks like it is sticking out as if bitten by a mosquito, and the nasal tip cartilage gradually looks more protruded. The skin becomes shiny and smooth. The nose is a part you yourself are much more sensitive about than a third party, right? It’s really so hard, and every time I meet someone new, they ask if I had surgery, so answering that is also really exhausting. This time, for the last time, I truly want a rounded and natural nose. (Like Ko Hyun-jung’s nasal tip) 1. Is surgery for nasal tip cartilage show-through really that dangerous? 2. Are there many cases of side effects? 3. I’m thinking of using AlloDerm (artificial dermis). Would that be okay? 4. If AlloDerm is not good, what kind of dermis would be okay? (I don’t want to cut out any more of my own flesh.) 5. Another doctor did not recommend it to me. Was the reason because of side effects, or because it isn’t that severe so I should live with it? Is this surgery really that dangerous? 6. If there are people in the same condition as me, when you were having surgery, did they also not recommend it, saying it was a risky surgery because of side effects? What method did you have surgery with, and what is your current condition? I really want to know. Everyone, please reply. I’m really having such a hard time. Please, I really ask for your replies.
