From the front, my nose looked low and broad, so my face also seemed somewhat wide and flat T_T My parents strongly opposed nose surgery, so I agonized over it, but we only live once and I wanted to be satisfied with my own face Since I also had a slight hump, I worried that it might count as a more extreme nose case. Rather than an overly natural style, I wanted a defined nose line that looked glamorous without seeming artificial. The first clinic I had noted had a lot of reviews and before-and-after photos. Because the difference was obvious, it caught my attention. The second had many reviews saying the facilities were pleasant and the coordinator was kind, but its review photos were slightly different from the look I wanted (still, I wanted to visit because it was famous and the director had many years of experience). I went for consultations at both and had surgery at the first clinic. I was so nervous right before surgery that my mouth kept drying out, but thinking about it now, it was probably because I couldn’t drink water while fasting Anyway, I couldn’t believe I was having my first rhinoplasty. I remember nothing after lying on the operating table, and when I woke up in the recovery room I was groggy from the anesthetic. Apart from the day of surgery, it wasn’t particularly painful or uncomfortable, but not being able to breathe until the cotton packing was removed made eating and sleeping somewhat difficult T_T Running a humidifier was a big help because my mouth became so dry. The major swelling went down a lot within a week, and they say it takes about three months for even the residual swelling to disappear... haha I hope it all goes down soon.
