Tags: age 25-34, 3 years post-op, plastic surgeon

I'm really nervious about seeing my surgeon who I have not seen in 3 years. I had my nose job when I was 21 and now I am 25. I was really depressed about my nose job for a while, and finally got myself to send my doctor an email. He wrote me back and told me to come in and see him. My question is will he fix my crooked nose? will he make me pay again? what should i expect. thank you.
