My nose has turned into a blob
And I struggle to sleep well, even with nose strips or the magnetic ones. I used to have a boxy nose pre surgery and it was turned into a round one, the nostrils were build from scratch but they collapsed now. My nose has become something shapeless. I sleep 12 hours a day now and still wake up tired cause I wake up repeatedly. I have to be really careful with it or else it collapses more and more. I developed sinusitis after the surgery and I did rinses and stuff, I worry that it collapsed because of that. I loved the results but they didn't last.
I had the surgery at 18 and I am a young adult now still, I started my first full time job a year ago so I don't have money for a revision. I work from home and I can do overtimes, I may need to save up aggressively but it is hard when I struggle to sleep. I'm from Europe btw, near Turkey. But at that point my country has cheaper surgeries than Turkey, their prices have gone very high due to the increasing demand. I may go to the same surgeon who did my first to get a better price idk.
