I wasn't unhappy with the height of my nose to begin with.

However, the tip of my nose was a little bulbous, and my nose was slightly short, so my nostrils were quite visible from the front.

Whenever I did my makeup, I was always obsessed with contouring my nose, but even then, whenever I saw myself in photos or videos, I felt like something was still missing.

That said, I didn't hate my nose, and I wasn't looking for a dramatic transformation or a completely different nose shape.

Because of that, I had a lot of concerns and hesitation about getting surgery.

Even during my consultation with Dr. Kim Daehwa, I emphasized that I wanted a very natural result, so I asked about a rhinoplasty without implants.

There was absolutely no pressure from him to do otherwise.

In fact, he was the one who pointed out that the change might not be very dramatic since we were aiming for a natural look, and he even asked if I would be okay with that. 😊

After surgery, I did get quite a bit of yellow bruising since I tend to bruise easily in general.

However, the swelling wasn't too bad, so by the second week, I was already out and about wearing makeup and going on with my normal routine. 😊

Personally, I felt like my nose looked quite different because of the swelling at first.

But maybe the swelling really wasn't that noticeable, because none of the people around me could even tell that I had surgery done...? 😅

I was honestly a little surprised by that, but at the same time, it was exactly the kind of result I had hoped for.

The changes were noticeable to me, but still natural enough that they didn't immediately stand out to everyone else. 😊✨
