My facial features are not very large, so I was really worried that getting nose surgery might throw off the balance of my face, but I think it turned out naturally and well! From the front, there isn’t a big difference, and when viewed from the side, the nasal bridge has become more defined, so it became exactly the nose I wanted :)
1) Surgical areas Nasal bridge (no implant) + nasal septum + ear cartilage + nasolabial angle correction + bulbous nose correction + slight refinement of the hump + cartilage graft to the nasal bridge + filling in the step-off on the nasal dorsum + osteotomy -> I like it even more because they touched up many different areas little by little!
2) Pain level On the first day, it was uncomfortable because I couldn’t breathe due to the cotton packing and my mouth got dry, but after the packing was removed, other than my nose feeling blocked from swelling for about 3 days, it was okay! Everyone asked if it hurt, but it didn’t hurt; it was just uncomfortable, so it was easier to endure. The bruising and major swelling were mostly gone in about 2 weeks, so it didn’t really affect daily life or work. I work in the service industry, so I was worried I might still have bruises when returning to work, but they faded faster than I expected, so it was fine haha
Honestly, I only visited two places for consultations before deciding, but I have no regrets! Even if I had looked around more, I think I would still have chosen this clinic haha
