I’ll write this in advance in case anyone asks. Surgery hospital: ㅇㄷㅇㅇㅇ. Surgical method: removal of the previously used 3 mm silicone. The ear cartilage and septal cartilage previously used for nasal tip extension were reused, with cartilage repositioning and changed to a lower support strut. Reason for surgery: dissatisfaction with the shape. As of today, it has been exactly 5 weeks since removal. At week 3, I went to the hospital for the last time and had the internal stitches removed while tears were streaming down my face. It really stung The director said the surgery went well and told me not to worry about my nose anymore and just live, and that for 6 months it’s a recovery period, so the nose may become red, itchy, feel pulled, or feel tight and constricted...

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoJan 2 When should I get A/S?
When would be good to get A/S.... People usually say 6 months to 1 year, but since it is a revision, I feel like 6 months may be a bit short if it is open surgery, while at the same time even 6 months feels long to stay with a botched nose
