I had rhinoplasty, cheek implants, and blepharoplasty 12 days ago. I had a hump on my nose and the bridge was too wide. Also, my nose was too long and kind went downward at the tip when I smiled. I had a deviated septum also, so that was fixed, which was the main reason to even see the doctor and the rest followed.
I'm so scared b/c my nose looks terrible! It's still long and wide at the bridge, and I still have a hump on my nose.
From the side profile I can tell somewhat of a difference, but it doesn't look like the Photoshop picture he showed before the surgery. Is this normal??
I was always told how beautiful I was all the time before surgery now I'm scared I made myself ugly and wasted $12,000!!!

Thank you for all your input. After reading all the posts I went straight to my doctor to explain my issues. He said these were all normal and that I'm exactly where I should be. He made me laugh b/c he said if my nose would look perfect now I'd have to worry! I might end up with hardly any nose if it were perfect right now just before 2 weeks after surgery.

Izzy When you have nose surgery involving the tip it does take a little longer to see the final result and continues to shrink as the swelling goes down for up to a year or so after.. I watched this happen with a girlfriend.. Best wishes
