am in seoul korea now
i just underwent rhinoplasty and alar reductionw ith dr. jung yday.
takin sinecch, and bruising seriously not as bad as i though, considering i cruise VERYeasily...hopefully it wont get worse.
because of the alarreduction,. i find it strilldifficult to open upper lid properly,.m,uch less chew food,but have managed to eat a tuna sandwich though!
pain on nose is negligible, but coz of the sleeping position (gt sleep elevated and face up) it hurts the ear a lot!
dr.jung and his colleaguies (he has a taiwan colelague too) are RELLY RELLY NICE. the nurses are lovelytoo. am due back to clinic tomto check on any signs of postop infections.
so farm, once in a while, i stare at the mirrow and aslk myself wat on earth i had done...seriously after this, no way m i toyin with my face again...
it didnt hel;p too tt a fren who was supposedto come with me backled poiut last min,and i only found out after the op.i cried a while after that,. whcih wporriefd mea lot that it might cause further infection....pls someone reassure me that that 10-sec of cryin wouldnt...am qyuite worried actually
anyhow,to elaboratemoreon wat i told dr. juung, i specifically requestedfora natural look,not high, not sharp,. notstraight.
so far after the op,.i wasrelly quite sati9sfied with the alar redu8tion he did.didnt seem too narrow and am glad he took that concern into mind when he did the reduction.
anywhow,i shall stop herefora bit as i feel kinda groggy still.jetlag after flyin fr uk=(
do feel freeto msgt meif u willlike to ask any qn, but plsgimme some timeto ans. thks!
take care
Hi shermaine!, hope ur nose will recover soon! Hey u fm london too? I'm hoping to go and get my nose done at either Dr Jung's or Dream clinic, but there's still so much I would like to know. Do u know if Dr Jung does alot of closed ops? Or are most of them open method? It's probably too early to ask, but do u know if u can push up and down ur nose tip after getting catilage implant there? THanks!
