I had a columellar strut placed with donated costal cartilage, but they didn’t project the nasal tip much, and because I had alar reduction too, I got a dragon-like nose. They seriously cut off almost half, and my nose is getting shorter and shorter. Ugh, it’s only been 3 days since my stitches were removed, what should I do? I seriously want to die. I basically haven’t slept a wink for almost 3 days. I lost 4 kg. The hospital says the dragon-like nose from the alar reduction will get better once the swelling goes down. I seriously want to die. Honestly, I barely have any swelling right now, and I can’t even tell if my nose was extended.

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoDec 23 If costal cartilage is being used, do they really have to remove and use a perfectly fine nasal septum too?
If the nasal tip can be raised with costal cartilage alone, why do they also have to remove the weaker septal cartilage? Having both costal cartilage and septal cartilage removed feels a bit burdensome, and I’m curious. If they remove…
