After about a month, I finally feel like this is really my face. Honestly, right after surgery there was swelling and it felt awkward, so there were moments when I wondered, “Is this right?” But as time passed, everything gradually settled into place.
For the nose surgery, at first it looked high and a little obvious because of the swelling, but now it has become much more natural. I especially like how the side profile looks more refined. Before, my nasal tip looked blunt, but now it looks much cleaner, so overall my image feels more polished.
I’m more satisfied with the forehead reduction than I expected. Before, my forehead was wide, so my hairstyle options were limited, but now my facial proportions look much better, and I feel more confident when taking photos. The scar has also faded a lot compared to the beginning, so when I wear my hair down, it’s barely noticeable.
For the forehead (virtual/volume-related), the volume was added naturally without looking overdone, so my impression has become softer. Before, I had a slightly flat and strong-looking impression, but now I feel like my image has changed to a much more feminine and softer one.
Overall, rather than looking like “I obviously had surgery!”, it feels like my original face just looks more refined, so I’m satisfied. It’s probably not the complete final result yet, but at the one-month mark, a lot of the swelling has gone down and it looks natural, so people around me often tell me it suits me well.
I had a lot of worries when I was first considering it, but now I feel even more that I’m glad I did it. I’m looking forward to seeing it settle even more naturally from here.
