During my first surgery, I had implant-free nasal tip surgery, and it was so hard that I genuinely developed social anxiety. Then by chance, I saw a clinic on Instagram, had a consultation there, and decided to go through with revision surgery.
During my first surgery, they built my nasal tip very high, and because of that, the cartilage on my nasal dorsum bulged upward, so my nose changed into something like a very large hump nose. The nostril asymmetry was also severe, and the area where the hump had been shaved down was visibly uneven and bumpy along the nasal bridge.
And the biggest problem was that as the cartilage bent, one side of my airway became blocked.
I tried to just live with it, but because I was in a situation where I could not breathe, I had consultations at several places for revision surgery, and the reason I chose this place among them was that during the consultations with the consultant and the director, both of them accurately pointed out the problems my nose had at the time, and explained in great detail what kind of nose would suit me. It was exactly the nose shape I had imagined and wanted. So I thought, ah! I should do it here.
For the surgery, they corrected my deviated nose with a customized implant, and for the nasal tip, they used donated costal cartilage and ear cartilage. And because I had difficulty breathing, I also had functional surgery at the same time.
After my first surgery, because of that strange pulling sensation in the nasal tip, my face did not feel comfortable for even a single day for over a year from the day of surgery. But this time, even though they used an implant and donated costal cartilage, it feels much lighter and more comfortable than before. There is less pulling when I move my lips, which is unbelievably amazing, to the point where I wonder if this is really the revision surgery I had been so worried about.
I kept thinking a lot about what it would have been like if I had done my first surgery here. Still, the fact that I was able to have surgery here this time makes me feel like I was really lucky.
Honestly, the director seemed so confident that I was a little anxious about it. Because even to me, my case looked much more difficult than other noses, so I wondered if this was really possible, if this was right, and whether I should go to more hospitals. But wow... the director’s hands are incredible... amazing...
After my first surgery, one year really felt like ten years, but now I feel so at ease and happy.
Everyone, when getting nose surgery, make sure to have enough consultations and look into it a lot. I think I was truly ignorant
People say nose surgery absolutely never ends in one go, but I hope everyone looks into it carefully and succeeds in one surgery!
