I had only the L-shaped silicone removed from my nose on Monday. I had a splint on, and today they took the splint off and I got the dressing done. When I had the splint on, there was no swelling at all, so I thought I must be suited for surgery, but once it came off, I really can’t shake the fish-like face feeling.. lol Maybe it’s because the nasal bridge I used to have is gone, so it feels flat. They said they’ll remove the taping when I go next Monday. The left is before removal and the right is after removal. Since I still haven’t seen my bare nose? yet, I’m not sure if my face looks strange. Thankfully, my nostrils don’t show haha It may be confusing to compare because of the tape, but I’m posting this so people who are struggling emotionally can use it as even a small reference. Before removal, every single review was honestly helpful When I get the taping removed on Monday, I’ll come back to post another review~!
