- The hospital where I had surgery is Weavers Plastic Surgery, and the doctor in charge was Dr. Shim Jung-hwan. When I went for a consultation, the hospital was clean and the atmosphere was calm, and the managers were also very kind. I felt like they would take good care of me after the surgery, so I waited comfortably while waiting. When I think about how many hospitals I visited to get quotes for revision surgery, I visited so many hospitals, but there were hardly any doctors who listened to me until the end and tried to meet my needs like Dr. Shim Jung-hwan. I was tired of the doctors' stubbornness at other hospitals, but Weavers, where I went for a consultation last, made me feel comforted, and I communicated well with the doctor, so I decided to try rhinoplasty again. - Surgical method I had lateral canthoplasty during my first surgery, but I still felt stuffy, so I wanted naturally defined and long eyes. They said I could get the desired feeling just by redoing the lateral canthoplasty, so I only had lateral canthoplasty done. For the nose, the tip of my nose was drooping and looked big, so I wanted a pointed + as slim as possible, so I had revision surgery for a bulbous nose + drooping nasal tip. I used donated rib cartilage, but when I had the surgery, I didn't feel anything and was calm. In the beginning, my nose felt a little heavy? But after 3 months, the heavy feeling is almost gone. - Swelling, pain The swelling and pain were the same as after my first surgery. I thought it would hurt more or swell more, but I didn't have the confidence to have revision surgery again, so I kept the no smoking and no alcohol period and didn't eat anything stimulating at all. I ate it after a month and a half? The swelling in my eyes went down quickly, but the swelling in my nose lasted for about 2 months. I was a little worried because the swelling laser that the hospital provided as aftercare didn't have a dramatic effect, but the swelling went down a lot after 3 months. That's when I started to see the sharp, straight nose that I wanted, and I was really satisfied ㅋㅋ I think it's right to wait a long time for the nose. - 3 months now I am really satisfied. Especially the lateral canthoplasty was so well done that people around me don't know that I had surgery and think it's my original eyes ㅎ Both my eyes and nose were revision surgery, so it wasn't a small amount of money, but if the results weren't satisfactory, I would have had a very difficult day, but I am so grateful to Dr. Shim for making my revision surgery a success. If you are considering revision surgery, be sure to visit Dr. Shim. Dr. Shim's hands are really golden hands. I hope you prosper more in the future, Dr. Shim!! Before surgery photo
