Hello there! My name is Julia and I just had a Rhinoplastic surgery yesterday at 5pm.
I am 20 years old and have always secretly wanted surgery because I found my nose unproportioned compared to my face. I have heard so many comments that have hurt me since I was young (Eg. manly nose, jewish nose,..) but always thought I could bare it until recently... I realised that it really bothered me because every single time I looked at my pictures or videos or whatsoever, I saw my huge nose that screwed up my beautiful face.
As we live in the 21st century and medicine has evolved immensely, thus if I have the power and budget to get something done that would make me happy (I know nothing can be perfect) but as long as its better than before I will have to settle for it (No problem) and be happy, why not do it?! I felt very comfortable with my doctor as he didn't push anything and actually cared as to how I felt and wanted it. I cannot say much right now s it has just been done and these things take time for the final result.
However I am freaking out because I feel like I want to rip my face out because I didn't sleep the whole night because I have to breathe through my mouth and of course I became sick so my throat hurts like hell. I hope tomorrow will be better as I am struggling seeing time pass so slowly (so typical).
On a different note, I also have to travel in a week to Israel (so smart) to work and see my family for the whole summer and there are loads of kids in my family that are very fond of me and full of energy and I need to be careful not to bump my precious nose into something.
I have started college in last february and I feel so stupid of having it done after my first semester (very clever) instead of doing it before entering college (sigh). Anyways, I have no idea how to react to anyone of my friends if they see me in uni with a different face... I haven't told anyone apart from my family and closest friend. I feel like a total faker if I go there and everyone stares at me and know somethings different but I don't know how to react even though I don't care... HELP
I will try and post pictures as soon as I can and if you could comment on them or just advise me on some things I would really appreciate it.
Sincerely,

So today is day number 2 after surgery and just...
Oh and I don't want to bore you with my love life so U don't have to answer this second part, but if you can give me some advice that would be great! So, I have been kinda seeing this guy...I met him in march, where I thought he was nice but he fell for me the second he saw me. Let's say he asked to be in a relationship with me a week after we met. At that point I wasn't that keen of him and acted like a [RS bleep] by saying no I want to have fun. He said ok thinking I would change my mind with time...The guy didn't give up and after doing things together and getting to know him better I started liking him more than I had actually planned on. I like him a lot but don't know if I want to give up my freedom yet as I have been single only since january (had a 1 year and a half relationship and my heart got crushed real bad) Anyways I feel so torn because Im in college and he's working and we have different routines.. He does his best for me (has cooked for me, has brought me out for dinner, etc...) he is really good to me... I told him to keep it cool and well see each other again in september since I am gone all summer as well as he, and that we would see each other again in september... Here is the thing, I haven't told him that I was doing a rhinoplasty... So I need some advice
1) Should I keep on seeing him? If yes, should I start a relationship with him? ( I know its a tough question to ask to someone who has no clue of how the situation is but I would like opinions from the outside and how you see it incase I'm already blinded by love, lol)
2) What do I do about my nose if he asks?
Thank you so much guys for the help and support I really appreciate it!

The fact that not many people will notice it is strange but surprisingly relieving in a way and no I haven't told anyone apart from my brother, dad, mom and closest friend... I feel like not a lot of ppl will understand me so I rather leave it at that, the world is so complex already haha...
I cannot wait until my cast is off and I can finally blow my nose and breathe through it! I will post pictures asap. Thanks again guys will look at your profiles! x
Hey there!!! So this is day 3 after operation and...
I made my next appointment on thursday to take off the cast!!!! Im so excited you have no idea! the mere revelation of my new face feels like a new life is opening up for me! No more trying to hide my profile, no more hating taking pictures with friends, no more religious prejudices, no more of all that! Just a boost of confidence I cannot wait to show! :)
The pain is much better today and I have one of my best friends that also had her nose done and she's supporting me soooo much as well as the comments ppl give me on this site its so wonderful! Thank you to all it really helps me get through the hard long days... I guess it's just going to be me and my TV today! yey feels good to be in pj's all day it's been way too long! x
Hi there,
I know those first few days are really hard! But it will be worth it. Don't worry too much about how others will react. Likely, they won't notice much and if they do will just think you've changed your hairstyle, etc. Most people are too busy worrying about themselves to pay super close attention to others.
Yes, don't bump your nose when you go back to see your family! Have you told them about your rhinoplasty?
Hang in there. It will get better very, very soon!
