Before< I was originally someone who looked like this… on the unattractive side. lol Honestly, I lived without thinking I was that unattractive… but I guess I was on the unattractive side. My eyes were uneven and I had no double eyelids, and my nose was blunt and short. Kind of cursed genes.. lol My skin wasn’t that good either and I had this magic where I looked older than my actual age.. lol Living only for work made me end up like this… I didn’t know I would fail to avoid the storms of time this badly and get hit by all of it lol Anyway, I was someone who looked like this. >< Still, I’m a cheerful person lol so doesn’t my impression look nice… Sorry. lol Anyway, to say it again, from this face, I got non-incisional double eyelid surgery and medial epicanthoplasty. And for my nose, I didn’t know what the problem was, but the doctor recommended bilateral osteotomies. Only then did I realize. It wasn’t just an ugly nose because it was low; it was also wide on both sides!! lol So I had bilateral osteotomies, put in 4 mm silicone, and put septal cartilage under the nose. The doctor had many years of experience, so the things they explained helped me a lot. >< On the first day of surgery, I was really scared. I blamed myself so much, thinking why didn’t I just live with my original face, why did I do this after turning thirty. I’m such a scaredy-cat. Lying on the operating table made me dizzy. Still, I endured it. With the single-minded goal of getting prettier.. lol But it didn’t hurt during the surgery, and all I remember is blinking whenever the doctor said, “Open your eyes~” in between. Then it was over very quickly. After it ended, they put cotton in my nostrils, and for 2 days, tada! I lost my sense of smell… Whatever I ate, I couldn’t smell it, so I couldn’t taste it.. But I endured it. >< The swelling is no joke, right. I didn’t know it would be this severe either. I was just like a huge sausage. lol But it really didn’t hurt badly. I visited for a few more days to get swelling laser treatment, got injections too, and drank aged pumpkin juice morning and night. I did everything that was said to be good. lol I definitely benefited from the clinic taking thorough care of me too. I thought maybe after plastic surgery they just abandon you lol but that wasn’t it!! They managed my care and also taught me different things I could do at home, so I followed them exactly. I slept with an ice pack on my eyes and all. The swelling went down faster than I expected. >< This is a photo I took when I went for swelling laser treatment and had the splint removed for the first time. I remember thinking, who is this.. who am I. lol Still, while looking at the bridge of my nose standing high, I thought, is this real..? >< This is a photo from around 1 month? when a lot of the swelling had gone down. They shaped my double-eyelid line like a work of art. But I thought, huh, is my nose a bit too high? The doctor said it would gradually come down. And it really did. lol They seemed to know what I would worry about in advance and told me, so I felt a little relieved. I was actually satisfied even at this stage. I thought, even if it was a bit obvious, at least I looked like a person now.. But the swelling wasn’t finished going down. It went down more and became more natural. Only the first month is a bit tightly swollen. By 3 months it becomes really natural!! >< I look younger. My eyes and nose are becoming more and more natural. They say eye swelling can be watched up to 6 months, so I’m looking forward to it becoming even more natural. I’m praising myself for getting plastic surgery. Especially, I think the nasal osteotomy may have been the perfect move.. I bowed in the direction of the doctor who saved my nose, which had been a total mess. >After< These are recent photos now that it’s been 3 months. Since it’s the change of seasons these days, my skin has flared up a bit, so please just overlook the redness. lol Compared with the first photo, don’t I really look like a different person… I did edit it a little though. lol I am extremely satisfied. The time I spent trembling because I was scared of plastic surgery feels like a waste. Now I’m thinking of buying pretty clothes, doing makeup, dressing up, and taking better care of myself. I worked so hard that my youth passed me by. But it’s okay. Because I’ve decided to start being young from now on. lol I hope this review gives strength to others. I’ll stop here.! Have a good day. >Hello~! It’s now been 3 months since my surgery, so I’m writing a 3-month review. Honestly, I wondered, did that much change? I’m not sure.. but while looking through photos to write the review, I was startled. Because I had just become a different person.. lol Please read it casually.~~ The photos are in chronological order~
