I'm on day 3 after getting early removal right away on day 14 after surgery. In conclusion, I'm regretting it so much... I rushed into the surgery because I wanted to do it within 2 weeks, but my nose was originally short and upturned, so it got even shorter from here and became completely upturned. From right after the surgery until now, I've been planning a revision surgery after 6 months, but since they removed everything, even the septal cartilage, I'll have to use costal cartilage. What do I do about the foreign-body sensation? Ah, seriously, my precious septal cartilage I think it's going to cost a lot too... If it was going to be like this, I should have just waited until 6 months after the first surgery and watched how the swelling went down. After taking off the splint, the image change was so different that I'm mentally falling apart...

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoOct 17 If the silicone extends all the way to the nasal tip
