Hello, I’m a 31-year-old man lol Six years ago, I visited an ENT clinic in Yangjae-dong for rhinitis treatment, and because the doctor recommended it and seemed so confident, I got a little greedy too and went ahead with my first rhinoplasty. Silicone was inserted into the nasal bridge, and septal cartilage was used for the nasal tip. The surgical method was the closed approach, which the doctor was extremely confident about. The joy I felt after removing the splint and tape lasted only briefly.. In less than about 3 months, the nasal tip collapsed lol. I had a mental breakdown and revisited the hospital, and they said they would do an after-service revision if I only paid the cost of donated costal cartilage, so 6 months after the surgery I went back and had revision surgery. This time, they said they would use something called Surgiform for the nasal bridge, and donated costal cartilage for the nasal tip. After finishing the second surgery and removing the splint and tape, I was happy because the nasal tip came back to life. But that joy didn’t last long either lol. One year later, my nose shape was like this: I naturally have a bit of glabella height, but only the glabella was sticking out, and from below the glabella to the beginning of the nasal tip everything had just sunken in. The nasal tip also bent about 1 cm to the left, damn lol. Now that I hear about it, they say the septum had completely collapsed. lol I was busy with work, so I just gave up and lived with it. I had surgery at 25, and until now, when I’m turning 31, whenever I saw my nose I was just like, seriously, ugh lol, all I could do was curse. My rhinitis didn’t improve at all either. Then this time, after leaving my job, I made up my mind and spent a large amount, 5.5 million won, to get revision surgery 2 weeks ago.. Of course, not at that hospital, but at another plastic surgery clinic I chose after shopping around lol For this third surgery, they used autologous costal cartilage and silicone for the nasal bridge.. It was an open approach. Right now, the major swelling has gone down to some extent, and I like the shape too, a straight nose. Before, they had made it a semi-ski-slope nose, even though it was a man’s nose lol though even that ended up crushed lol Now I just hope it stays like this.. I really hope this will be my last surgery.. I hope everyone reading this succeeds with their cosmetic surgery too!
