NAM Treatment - Part 3 (Nasal Stand)

Nasal Stand is to give the nose a lift job and it did a wonderful job.

1st week: Nasal stand introduce at a comfortable level.
2nd week: Nasal stand was adjusted to a scary height, was instructed to keep rubbing the nose so that the tip can stay inside the nose.
3rd week: Inform Dr C.Lee that the nasal stand is at a pretty uncomfortable level, Dr C.Lee adjusted the gradient of the nasal stand. This time round it looks better.
4th week: Nasal stand's height adjusted further as the nose level will drop after operation due to muscle relaxation.
5th week: Our last appt with Dr C.Lee prior operation, nasal stand adjusted once again. Dr C.Lee was happy with the nose. We discuss about the nose retina after operation, was told to discuss with Dr Lee SJ(surgeon) as she use a different operation technique. We were instructed to only remove the plate 1 night prior the operation.

This officially ended our NAM journey.
