All is well. I may consider some dermabrasion around my nostrils at the one-year mark if Dr. Kwak recommends it, but so far, so good. I took down my last pics so I'm replacing them with these cropped ones. I'm really happy with the results and the accessibility. Dr. Kwak is a skilled surgeon who could charge a lot more. But then I'd be sad. :)
More pictures later
Welp, I feel like I should post more pictures but I'm healing from a bad break out. I got really sick from the antibiotics. Despite specifically being told not to tough anything out... I tried to tough it out before telling Dr. Kwak. Turns out I had a rare sickness from taking antibiotics. Dr. Kwak saved the day and called in a new prescription.
I feel so healthy that I sometimes forget that I have a slightly lowered immune system. When I arrived in Spain, I stayed in my little sweat box of a room for about 10 days... and emerged to discover that I had a few pimples, including the largest zit I have ever had in my life. I watched it slowly form day by day but there wasn't much I could do about it because it was in the crevice of my nostril and I was not about to push and press on my nose. Then 1 zit, became 2, 3, and eventually four. When I got to London, I was able to find products to dry it. Once it heals, I'll post more pictures.
I joke with my friends and say I must be the vainest person ever. It's like I walked into the doctors office and was like, "I'd like a nose job, but don't get too crazy, okay? Don't mess with perfection."
My worst nightmare was having a completely different nose. For some people, a completely different nose is desirable but I had nightmares about it. Small changes and revisions are more difficult, but Dr. Kwak gave me exactly what I wanted. A slightly smaller version of what I already had.

Naked Pics
I just wanted to post some pictures since I'll technicslly hit the 1 month mark in just a few hours. It feels like forever but 1 month isn't even long enough for the bones to heal. I can't wait until they do so I can go jogging and swimming! Anyway, here are some updated pictures. As per usual, I'm not wearing makeup. It's so humid and my pores are still clogged. I rarely break out but my skin is freaking out while traveling. I got 2 pimples right in the crevices around my nose... and I popped them with a needle then gently squeezed the surrounding tissue on my cheeks. Gross, but I didn't know what else to do! A pimple is temporary, but scars could be forever. Thou shalt not scar.

The best! I know I have a long way to go, but I feel comfortable and secure in Dr. Kwak's hands. I'm confident that final results will be great!
