As time has passed, the swelling in my nose has definitely gone down a lot, and overall it feels stable now. At this point, the bridge line feels almost completely settled, and it looks much more defined than before.
The bulbous nose look has also been cleaned up a lot, so the thing I’m most satisfied with is that my overall impression looks neater. Rather than feeling like my face changed too dramatically, it feels more like my original face has been refined and made more defined, so I think it looks more natural.
When I take photos or videos, my face looks much less stuffy than before, and it feels like the overall facial balance has been adjusted, so my satisfaction is pretty high haha.
Since I had a bulbous nose, the nasal tip swelling hasn’t completely gone down yet, and it does feel like there’s still a little swelling left, but it keeps getting softer and more natural over time, so it doesn’t bother me much.
It definitely looks more refined than it did at 8 months, so I think the saying that time is the answer after rhinoplasty is true.
Functionally, I have almost no discomfort in daily life, and breathing has become much more comfortable, so I’m satisfied that I had both the aesthetic and functional parts done at AB.
Now I’m just used to it like it’s my own nose, so I’m even more satisfied :)
