I am very satisfied with my nose from the front, but from the side, or looking from below, the hump really stands out and kept bothering me. I read a blog post three years ago, saw that the hump had disappeared and that it seemed safe, and then impulsively had surgery there this time.
Honestly, I took it very lightly. I just thought they could remove only that part and it would be fine. And unlike eyes and things like that, there are so many people around me who have had surgery, but with noses there really are not many, or maybe only one or two. But because it shows so much, I thought maybe I should not do it at a plastic surgery clinic. And since it is connected to breathing too, I thought let’s just remove the hump with safety in mind...
But the director said that in cases like this, they slightly tie the tip of the nose, and honestly I was satisfied with my nose tip, so on the day of surgery I went with my mom. My mom also said no, so I said I would not do that and went ahead. After the splint came off, it looked exactly to my liking, but the tip of the nose was a little round. Later I found out they had slightly tied the tip.
I was startled at first, but since it turned out well, I let it go. But now, as I am almost at month 5 and the swelling goes down, it feels incredibly flat, like the bridge of my nose has disappeared. Or rather, the tip looks a bit more prominent, and instead it feels like a bulbous nose, a dog nose. For almost a month now, my blood has dried up and I have lost a lot of weight, and I am looking into revision surgery in Seoul. Honestly, it has been so hard on me mentally. Frankly, my face looked better when I still had the hump...
It has been so hard on my mind. There are about 50 days left until 6 months, and honestly every day is hard, even facing people is hard... It does not look that noticeable, but because of that flatness and lack of dimension, it is so hard. But the hump was shaved down really well, so it is straight ㅡㅡㅋ Ugh, I really do not even know exactly what the problem is, so that makes me more scared. I am also worried they will overstate things at every plastic surgery clinic I visit. My hump was not that severe, but it has come back to me like a mental illness.
Still, maybe because they really prioritize safety here, functionally it seems to have turned out very well... Really, waiting another 50 days is so hard, and I am also so worried about what will happen after that.
