(Before)

(After)

It's been about 10 days now but the photos are from day 7 

I used to stress over my nose being flat and looking wide 

It was the kind of nose that looked just like a flat blob whenever anyone took a photo, so I hated being photographed

So my self-esteem was extremely, extremely low

I wanted to get surgery but I was too scared to work up the courage 

Then when I hit my thirties, I suddenly thought it would be better to do it while I was even one year younger

I really built up my resolve and decided to get the surgery

I went to a lot of consultations and finally decided on Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery 

I had the bridge + tip + osteotomy + alar reduction + bulbous nose correction + columella lift done

After surgery, breathing was so hard it was rough

Breathing through my mouth kept drying out my lips and my throat was parched — it was really tough

Then on day 7, after the splint came off and the swelling went down a bit, breathing became much easier

There's still swelling making it look blunt, but from the side profile my bridge is definitely much higher and the tip has lifted up nicely

I need to wait a bit more to see the final result, but for now I'm so, so satisfied
