I've had the thought of getting nose surgery since I was a little kid, and I started planning it 6 months ago, and finally had the surgery yesterday (the 30th). I had it done in Apgujeong. I had my forehead and nose done together. They inserted Gore-Tex in the bridge, and used ear cartilage and AlloDerm for the tip.. I also reduced the nostrils a bit. I washed my face thoroughly and removed all the nose hairs completely.. It was my first time trimming nose hair, and the air rushing through feels very strange lol Up until the moment I lay on the operating table, I was calm, but after lying down and waking up from sedation anesthesia, I couldn't handle the sounds ㅡㅡ;; I usually have a very strong stomach, but the sounds were a bit... intense~ The sound of cutting ear cartilage.. The sound of burning it with something like a laser.. Even the feeling of being suctioned and stitched up~ -_-; Of course I was talking with the doctor too. If there was anything uncomfortable, I could say so, and sometimes they would tell me what process they were doing right now.. They packed the deep inside of my nostrils with gauze, so I had to breathe through my mouth the whole surgery, and later even my ears felt blocked, I could barely swallow my saliva, and I almost died from dry lips and tongue lol The nose part alone took 5 hours. The forehead took 1 hour... I went in at 2 and came out at 8:30.. The director is so meticulous that they say they can only do almost one person per day. People around me kept asking why I was doing my nose, and saying it looked good as it is, trying to stop me, so I did it after pushing past that, ㅋㅋ I don't want to regret it~ Surprisingly, the nose itself is okay, but the place where they took out the cartilage hurts a lot. Especially when they wrapped the bandage, I ended up bursting into tears. For the forehead, after liposuction from the thigh, it seemed like they separated out only the pure fat and injected it with a syringe.. They repeatedly jab the thigh with a long metal suction tube (the exact kind you see on TV!!) and suck it out ㅡㅡ To everyone planning surgery, don't be too scared. The degree each person feels is different, and every hospital will have a slightly different style;;; If you're going to do it anyway, decide on the hospital, negotiate the price, and just go for it without knowing anything, it might be better~` The more you know, the more you can imagine -_-ㅋ If it's the nose, it's the nose; if it's the ear, it's the ear; if it's the forehead, it's the forehead; if it's the leg, it's the leg Anyway, the anesthesia injection hurts the most.. in my case~~ The first night, your nose feels stuffy and you absolutely shouldn't sleep flat You need to keep doing cold compresses You might have a little nosebleed too. If you get through that, they'll remove the gauze the next day and clean everything up, so I already feel much better I didn't bruise much either~~~ ^^ I'll upload photos when the stitches come out on Monday

I’m a man, and my nose used to have a slight hump, but it wasn’t high and was small, so it didn’t have a masculine feel, and it didn’t really look handsome either. This time, I had surgery with Director Kim Ji-hoon at Ppeulli Plastic Surger
