Have you tried a nasal spray? I've been using a Saline nasal mist (so just salt water) and it's helped. It's not perfect, but it's better... I've also read that neti pots are really good. What is a neti pot you ask? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8sDIbRAXlg
GROOOOOSSSS MAGNITUDE TIMES GOOGLE!!! >:O WHY?!?!!!
Septal cartilage for the tip + Gore-tex bridge
Thank you!
Thanks!
So I am surprised by the sheer number of clinics around my hotel -- Grand, VIP, JK, Profile, Teuim, MVP, ID, and a gazilion others are within walking distance. Many 7-11like grocery chains sell post-cosmetic surgery kits: face mask, hats, cheap yet large sunglasses.
Stressed out and woke up. Very thirsty but not allowed to drink. -_-

Hmm, interesting. I've not heard of that before but there's no harm is there? I mean, the filler isn't permanent is it? But yeah, sure it sounds normal.
My nose is still a bit swollen on my bridge and tip so NO fillers needed for me. I will have to be patient and wait for a few more months to see my final result![]()
Hi, where are you from? Can't pm you..,what procedures are you doing? Which clinics are you going for consultation? I guess u will have finished your surgery when I arrived. Where r u staying? Pm me ur contact so I can watsapp u
Hi apples,
Thank you for asking.. My healing is going fine. Its been about 3 weeks post surgery and there is a very little bruising left (just a tiny bit on the bridge of my nose, but once I cover it with concealer you can't see it).
The swelling is still there, to which I expect it to stay for the next few weeks. It feels like there is pressure on my nose (bridge and tip) but not on the sides nostrils/alars - that feels normal. But I still can't put my little pinkie up my nose lol. Not that I really want to (I'm thinking my nostrils might strength lol) but when there is a boogie up there it was nice before when I could just stick my pinkie up. Sorry to sound gross!
Last night I saw one of my close friends and at first she didn't realise I had anything done until I turned to my side and she knew I had something done. I had a hump on my bridge before and droopy tip so it looks quite different on my side profile as opposed to me frontal profile.
I'm still taking bromelain which I'm not sure if its helping all that much and also warm compressions using the eye pack the clinic gave me, but again, not sure if that helps, though it feels nice when I have it on my nose.
Apart from that, the nose seems to look better than when i had the cast off, in that it looks less swollen and more into shape. I know I gotta wait a good couple of months though to see the full results. The swelling doesn't bother me at all but I just gotta be careful not to accidentally hit my nose coz that will seriously hurt! I was taking my top off yesterday and hit my nose (very gently!) but it really hurt for like an hour after!
I'm doing eyes + nose and my top picks are Chungdam U, BK, JW and I'm reeeeally interested in popular ones the locals go to. If you read London_chick's posts, she said there were over ~400 which is insane!
Eyes + nose. What about you?
kkim120 - I'm happy to hear that! Your successful surgery (along with how kind, honest, and sincere your doc sounds) made me put JW on my list and I think others as well.![]()
I think about 2-3 months after my nose stopped changing as well as overall face probably because my swelling was subsiding.
It's been 6 months now and it has been still since.![]()
Dr Gim has given me exactly what I wanted. Lower bridge and similar to the ID nurse' tt I have requested for. But I din do sufficient homework to know the difference between straight nose and S nose. Like Grand said, he will give me a straight one, whereas Dr Gim said, an S + my request for low bridge and the nurse nose.
Dun think I am in the position to ask for free revision coz there's nothing wrong with my nose for now. So, I am keen to explore other clinics which have been doing many straight noses and proven.

Hi! Could you please send me a before and after picture too? (mari.is.alive.here at gmail dot com) I didn't realize you had surgery done already, because from what I can see, your avatar picture is so natural and gorgeous. Definitely like a Korean actress. May I ask what procedure(s) you've gotten done? I honestly can't tell lol. But your small face has intensified my desire to get jaw surgery in Korea soon. ^^
