Previously, we shared the first story of a young man in his 20s who visited our clinic due to his complex about having a wide, upturned nose. Today, we are excited to present the second vlog interview, marking one month (30 days) since his surgery.

Despite the high difficulty of using autologous rib cartilage to correct a short and upturned nose, he showed an astonishing recovery speed and satisfaction. He confidently claims, “My life has changed,” and now we reveal his genuine review in detail!

Pain and Recovery from Surgery: Wasn’t the 6-hour major surgery painful?

Post-surgery Experience: “I felt like only 2 hours had passed when I woke up!”
Honest Pain Review: There was almost no pain or side effects from the nose itself, but he honestly mentioned slight discomfort and tightness when breathing or eating for the first 2-3 days due to the rib cartilage harvest site.

💡 KOKO Plastic Surgery Clinic’s Fact Check!

During rib cartilage rhinoplasty, the chest area where cartilage is harvested may experience muscle soreness for the first few days. However, as the patient shared, after just 3 days, recovery is quick enough to resume daily activities. As the Roman poet Ovid said, “Pain will gradually turn into something good for you,” a few days of discomfort lead to a lifetime of confidence.

Secret to Fast Recovery: Diligent Home Care Following the Doctor’s Prescription

The hidden secret to the patient’s flawless recovery within a month without complications was ‘meticulous nasal hygiene.’
He followed the advice emphasized by Korea’s top rhinoplasty expert on YouTube.

👃Daily Morning/Evening Saline Rinse: Removes dust and impurities to prevent infection
👃Consistent Ointment Application: Keeps nasal mucosa moist and helps scars heal beautifully

While 90% of surgery success depends on the surgeon’s skill, the patient’s thorough post-surgery care completes the 100% perfect result.
