Hello haha
It’s already been two weeks since my surgery
I think the hardest part was right after surgery when I was swollen :(
But instead of getting down looking in the mirror, I did cold compresses like crazy.
I had forehead fat grafting along with my nose, so I was really careful and barely rested the cold pack on it in case it changed the shape (just being dramatic.. haha)!
So I asked, and they said it’s fine to put it on properly!
I didn’t tell the doctor anything specific about the line — I just asked for glamour and naturalness to go together — and I really love it haha
High yet natural was probably the hardest thing to ask for.. haha but the doctor set the line beautifully without overdoing it!
Oh, I also had ptosis correction, and I was really surprised how much clearer my eyes look. Opening my eyes used to be a bit of an effort, and now it’s much easier haha
When you’re looking after it after surgery, definitely use sterile cotton swabs :( They’re the best. It might be nothing, but I’m the type who only feels at ease when I take care of the little things haha
And take your second medication properly too! I set an alarm for thirty minutes after meals so I wouldn’t forget.
The most important thing is cold compresses! I really didn’t think they mattered and skipped them, and then blood pooled inside my nose and I had a hard time getting it drained :(
After that I did cold compresses like crazy, and the swelling went down really fast!
I didn’t take pumpkin juice or anything like that, and since it was summer and so hot outside, I just vacuumed and moved around the house a lot!
Even if it’s hard, please sleep sitting up :(.. I just slept on the sofa haha If I tried to sleep sitting up in bed, I kept wanting to lie down haha
Whenever I was worried or curious about something after surgery, I asked KOWON Plastic Surgery straight away on KakaoTalk, and they answered quickly, which I’m grateful for!
Now the swelling has gone down a bit and I can go about daily life completely haha
Go to KOWON, everyone haha
