In the end, because it was my first consultation, I was tempted, but after looking into it again, I found that here they recommended a minor correction surgery, which is not really done these days and does have some side effects Anyway, without even taking a CT, the doctor felt my nose and already knew the exact shape of my nose that I learned from the CT at the second hospital. I have a bulbous nose and a fairly severe hump, but my septum is on the smaller side, so they said they would not use the septum at all, and that osteotomy would probably be good. While correcting the bulbous nose, they would use ear cartilage to fill in the minor irregularities, and fill the empty bridge space between the hump and the tip with ear cartilage. The doctor here said this surgery method is a uniquely differentiated operation from other doctors, and that if other hospitals only do surgery without implants, there can be a bumpy feeling, so they lay autologous fascia from behind the ear over it to make it look natural. That was the surgical method, and because my nose is really difficult, they said other hospitals would recommend three methods, but those methods would be using silicone, using the septum, or using donated rib cartilage. They explained one by one what side effects each of those methods could cause for my nose, and recommended this as the best and optimal method for me. They were extremely confident in their surgical method, and I had a lot of questions because I worry a lot about side effects and revision surgery, but they explained everything one by one in anatomical terms, which made me firm up my mind even though I had visited so many hospitals Even though it was the first hospital, it felt like this was the one, so I was worried too, but for now they said they are very professional and will preserve my nose as much as possible without deforming it or overstraining it, and that they would keep the hump height rather than shaving it down. I haven’t asked about the price or aftercare yet, and they said revision support is available if there is a surgical problem after the operation.
