Rhinoplasty: Experiences and recovery tips?
in Health ·
Hey there
So, about a year ago, I went under the knife for both cosmetic and functional rhinoplasty, and honestly... I am just so incredibly unhappy with the results. Functionally, nothing really feels any different, but aesthetically? It’s an absolute disaster. My nose looks like it's three times the size it was before surgery, and it feels super stiff—I'm pretty sure I've developed some keloid scarring inside my nostrils. Just a total mess... I have my final follow-up appointment this week, but I can already see where this is going because they're just going to tell me "it'll settle down eventually," which is exactly what they told me six months ago, and clearly, nothing has settled at all...
Has anyone else gone through something similar? And seriously, what do you even do when you're stuck in a situation like this?
