Is my nose too high? The nasal bridge is 2.5 mm, but only the nasal tip is too high I want to lower it through aftercare/revision after 6 months How much should I lower it? The nasolabial angle is still upturned Will it come down a bit more? Since the nasal tip is autologous costal cartilage, I don’t think it will come down more It looks like Pinocchio and feels too much My nostrils were originally that long and big even before surgery Please give me advice
하띵이 How long has it been since you had it done? If it hasn’t been 6 months yet, you can think about it after 6 months. Some people’s noses keep coming down until they’re begging it to stop coming down (like me..)
뿡빵곤듀 [@하띵이] I’m 1 month post-op But since it’s autologous costal cartilage.. I don’t think it’ll come down For now the nasolabial angle is coming down, but the nasal tip is still hard as a rock And there’s no change in the photos either
뿡빵곤듀 [@뿡빵곤듀] Oh, and it’s not that I’m hoping the angle of the nasal tip will come down, I just want the front part of the nose to look a bit less projected?? I wish it would shrink
만두뽀뽀로 If you’re only 1 month post-op.. I think it’ll drop The line looks pretty to me, so how about waiting a bit?
익명 At first my nose was really high and looked very obvious too, but now it has come down a lot. I do think it definitely gets lower as time passes. But it didn’t become the natural-looking nose I wanted,, it still feels high
뿡빵곤듀 [@만두뽀뽀로] Doesn’t it look too much like Pinocchio?? It also seems too high But it’s not like I had 4 mm or 5 mm of silicone put in like other people, so I don’t know why it’s like this After surgery, I only keep seeing natural-looking reviews
뿡빵곤듀 [@] So I guess it really doesn’t become natural-looking.. Are you not thinking about revision surgery??
익명 [@뿡빵곤듀] I’m going to get revision surgery. But you might end up satisfied as time passes, so just watch it for now Even now it doesn’t look like Pinocchio, it looks naturally glamorous
익명 I think lowering it would be the right choice... Mine was like that, and later on, as the swelling went down, it got even sharper and started looking like Pinocchio because they had extended it too long The nostrils also looked longer in a straight line, so aesthetically it looked too much like a surgically done nose.. If yours was already on the long side originally, I think they shouldn’t have lengthened it a lot. The nasolabial angle is okay
뿡빵곤듀 [@] Thank you But when you had revision surgery, did they do it open again?
익명 [@user] Yeah But honestly, lowering it was much better.. And it could start showing through, so I definitely recommend lowering it.. It looks unstable
뿡빵곤듀 [@] Thank you I'm having such a hard time mentally, but hearing that gives me strength Did you lower the silicone too?? How long after did you lower it??
익명 [@user] I had the silicone removed completely because I also got inflammation;.... I lowered it after completing 6 months!
뿡빵곤듀 [@] I have so many things to ask Sorry, and thank you for answering everything. But was it okay to do it after 6 months?? Ah, thinking about opening my nose again really makes me not want to live Did you do it at the same hospital?? The place I did mine is a flashy-style place, so I'm worried whether they will properly lower it even if I ask them to. Ha
익명 [@user] It's okay, you can keep asking. I really know how you feel.. It was okay to do it after 6 months.. But I opened it a total of three times. First I opened it after completing 6 months, and then the next time was after a year and a half (all at the same hospital). I think it's better to lower it significantly when you lower it. I lowered it bit by bit, so I opened it often, which put more burden on my nose, and during recovery from the last surgery, the tight feeling and pressure lasted three months, so it was hard! They were all at the same hospital, and mine was also a flashy-style place, so they kept lowering it little by little. Honestly, even now I think it's high, but I don't want to open it anymore... so I'm just living like this! Before, it really looked like Pinocchio, pointy, and I was anxious like it might break through, but now, hmm.. there is some showing-through and it feels slightly pointy
Lalaby Nope. Whether you lower it or remove it, you have to wait anyway. In the early stage it really looks awkward and strange, but as time passes, the swelling goes down and you also adapt to your own face, so it can become okay. Whatever it is, if it isn't a complication, no early correction XXX. Don't ask here; calmly manage it, wait, and then decide. Now is not the time to make a decision.
뿡빵곤듀 [@] Your heart is like an angel..... I'm really dying. It's not a mental illness, I'm just depressed and only tears come out On top of that, there is even a step-off where the bandage is attached. I feel like I'm going crazy This is my second time right now... Since I'm thinking about AS, opening it a third time is certain, and when I did it this time with autologous costal cartilage it was so hard, but just the thought of opening the nose again is already stressing me out in advance so much I feel like dying. The scar tissue inside my nose is already severe now, and if I do it once more it will get worse, right?... I'm depressed and can't meet people either. Tomorrow I'm going to see the one-month progress, but I don't even know if they will do AS. Judging from how they talk, they may just tell me to watch the progress longer, and even that photo I uploaded is one where it came out looking pretty. I posted on communities and chat too, but no one replies, and I only talk to GPT every day... I'm scared they won't do AS or will tell me to pay a lot of the cost. If I don't need silicone, I want to remove it too. If I remove the silicone, will there be a big step-off? You said even after removing silicone, it is still a bit pointy, so I'm even more scared

익명 [@user] First, don't remove the silicone if there is no inflammation After I removed the silicone, the step-off got worse. With no implant, it was harder to reinforce the step-off. Like the person below said, let's at least complete 6 months first I totally understand what you mean when you say you uploaded a pretty photo. When I uploaded photos here, I also uploaded the photos that looked relatively pretty.. First, after completing 6 months, study the materials, get an explanation from the hospital about how your nose was operated on, look at the nose shape at 6 months, and then think about what to do If you've opened it twice now, this is really the time to be careful... And I think you should stop doing revisions at the same hospital now. I thought from the post that this was your first surgery.. I think the doctor's aesthetic sense itself is just wrong..
뿡빵곤듀 [@] At this place, it was one surgery, but actually the front view improved a lot, and the nostril asymmetry was matched as much as possible, so I was thinking of trusting them one more time... But looking into other places feels even more overwhelming... I thought I had chosen carefully for revision surgery, but I really didn't know it would turn out like this. The doctor's reviews were good too, so I wonder why only I ended up like this... Thank you so much for the advice...
Reader 23 Could I possibly know where you had it done? It's so similar to mine
