About 10 years had passed since my first surgery, and my nose gradually became shorter, and the cartilage that had been tied for my bulbous nose started to look spread out. The nasal tip was also blunt, and from the front my nostrils gradually became more visible, turning into a short nose, so I decided to have revision surgery. (The first surgery was done at another hospital.) I wanted to have a pretty nose that suited my current face shape, so I visited only private clinics and had consultations at a total of 7 places in Gangnam and Apgujeong. After going to several places, I started to get an answer about where I should have surgery. The director explained everything in detail, and the fact that they do only one surgery a day also really resonated with me. The surgery took over 4 hours because I had functional nasal surgery together for rhinitis. Right after surgery, I was more okay than expected and it didn’t hurt, so I walked out bravely and everyone was surprised, but once I was resting at home and it got late at night, it started feeling tight and swelling.. haha Maybe because I had surgery on my period, there was quite a bit of bleeding too, so I was shocked and started icing right away. I should’ve iced as soon as I got home.. hahaha Before going into surgery, I told them it was that day, and the nurse gave me a panty-type sanitary pad, so I changed into it and had sleep anesthesia. I don’t know what I would have done if they hadn’t prepared it for me. But as a behind-the-scenes story, later when I was discharged and came home, I just put my outer clothes on over it and came home like that.. The next day when I went for treatment, they had packed my underwear separately in a plastic bag and paper bag and quietly gave it back to me haha Nurse, I’m sorry and thank you... Here, they checked my condition frequently on day 1, day 3, day 7, and day 14, and I was touched by how carefully everyone at the hospital took care of me. When you’re in pain, even small things can make you feel upset for no reason. As you can see in the photos, I think it felt harder because I had to wear a retainer,, but what could I do hahaha For a successful nose and pretty nostrils, I couldn’t help but wear it consistently whenever I had time. I had to return to work on day 11, so from day 4 I diligently took Danggwisusan and Newvein too. From your 30s onward, you feel reassured only if you do something for faster recovery ^_ Also, if you’re having functional nasal surgery like me, make sure to prepare a humidifier with strong humidification before surgery! You’ll be breathing through your mouth for a few days, and it can help your mouth feel less dry!! The swelling suddenly started going down a lot after one month. Swelling medication helped too, but it really changed visibly day by day, so I was surprised every time I looked in the mirror. The most important thing! I had my wedding photoshoot 5 weeks after surgery, and I was so satisfied. At the shoot, I even heard that I “look like Twice’s Sana”…! (I’m embarrassed, but it felt amazing haha) At first, I was worried people would notice I had plastic surgery, but now it seems to be settling in really naturally, so I’m very satisfied haha Especially because the nose line in photos looks so pretty, I used to only notice my nose when taking pictures, but these days I even enjoy being photographed! For those who are worried like me before a wedding or an important schedule, I want to say that around 5 weeks was enough for me to do a photoshoot without difficulty.
