10 days since my nose surgery!!

10 days since my nose surgery!!
I got my bridge and tip done!!

First of all, the staff at the front desk and the nurses were so soft-spoken and kind that I felt more at ease when I lay down on the operating table.
It's only been 10 days, but there was hardly any bruising, so I don't think I ever worried about when it would go away. haha.
I had eye surgery 3 years ago and it swelled up so much, and since I couldn't take time off work, I was extremely worried about swelling and bruising... to the point where I was stressed out thinking I shouldn't have done it.

But here, I only had slight bruising on my cheeks near my nose, and it seemed to disappear in about 5 days. Honestly, I didn't even care about the bruising. lol.
I was like, "When did it even go away?" lol. There's still a bit of swelling left on the bridge, but it's going down rapidly every day.
I didn't even do the compresses that diligently because I was working. lol.

When I had swelling, I was like, "Ah, I wish I had gone higher... what a shame," but now that the swelling is dropping, I'm like, "Whoa!" lol.

Before the surgery, it didn't look that low from the front, so my mom and friends told me not to do it, saying it looked fine as it was. But my side profile was just... so flat and lacked dimension, which was very stressful for me.
I debated for about 2 years before getting the surgery. I suffered so much when I got my eyes done, and I knew nose surgery is a different story...

After the surgery, I had all sorts of thoughts and worries, like it feeling hot, throbbing like a heartbeat, and thinking it would hurt like crazy if I even touched it slightly.
But I was like, "Wait...? This is manageable...?" lol.
I just felt like, "Wow, this doesn't feel like my nose," but it didn't really hurt even when I touched it.
But sleeping is a bit of a struggle. I have to breathe only through my mouth, and since my mouth gets dry, I keep waking up to drink water. lol.

The head doctor also takes really good care of me during every follow-up. This is seriously the best!!!!
He's so delicate and meticulous that the incision site is clean, and the doctor said the scar will disappear quickly!!

There's still a bit of swelling left, but I think it'll look even prettier once it goes down more. hehe.
