Revision Rhinoplasty for Nasal Contracture
본문
Before / 2w post-op
I had undergone two previous rhinoplasty procedures, but over time, my nose gradually became more upturned, which had been a major source of insecurity for me for many years.
Rather than simply making my nose higher, I wanted to improve the upturned appearance while creating a shape that would blend naturally with the rest of my facial features. That was what eventually led me to consider revision rhinoplasty for nasal contracture.
While looking for a surgeon with experience in revision surgery for an upturned nose, I first came across Dr. Hyunju Kim through YouTube.
After watching videos in which Dr. Kim personally explained different surgical approaches, I felt reassured by how detailed and sincere his explanations were.
I also carefully reviewed his before-and-after rhinoplasty cases and felt that his aesthetic approach was very close to the natural result I was hoping for.
During my revision consultation, Dr. Kim listened carefully to both the areas that concerned me and the type of result I wanted.
I especially appreciated that he took my preferences into consideration while also suggesting a design that would suit my facial proportions naturally.
That consultation gave me confidence in moving forward with the revision surgery.
I am still in the recovery process, so some swelling remains, but I can already see that the upturned appearance that bothered me most has improved in a much more natural direction.
What I am especially pleased with is that the nose still reflects the type of result I wanted while blending harmoniously with the rest of my face.
I am looking forward to seeing how the shape continues to change as the remaining swelling gradually subsides and the nose settles further.
Even at this stage of recovery, I already feel that choosing to undergo revision rhinoplasty was the right decision for me.
I am very grateful to Dr. Hyunju Kim for carefully performing my revision surgery and to the staff at RU Plastic Surgery for their kind support throughout the process.
