I have always been insecure about my nose but was too scared to actually go through with rhinoplasty. After how pleased I was with my entire experience from my breast aug at dr elam's, I decided to go through with it.
I am now on day 3 post op & feel amazing! I have virtually no pain or bruising and very minimal amount of swelling. I can't wait until I get my cast off this week, I already can tell it is going to look great : )

Thank u! You are GORGEOUS as well hun! I am so happy with my results so far- I'm still swollen but it hasn't been very long since surgery so I'm not worried about it = ) I just read some of your posts.. has the tiny bump gone away? Are u stil swollen?

how long was recovery? What did you have done just the tip or did your also get the bridge fixed too?>

It depends on what u consider recovery? I had my cast on for a week.... I rested a couple days after that & then I went back to work etc. SUPER easy recovery! You obviously have to take it easy- no working out or anything strenuous for a month or 2 but besides that you can go back to your daily routine rather quickly = )

You are so lucky to heal so quickly!! 2 weeks post op I still have tons of swelling and bruising. I wonder if it has to do with the surgeon or just different people's bodies and reaction to surgery.

I think it is a combination of both! I didn't bruise much at all- I had a little shiner on right side & skin was a little dicolored under my eyes but that all was pretty much gone a few days after I got my cast off. I would definitely recommend you sleep up at an incline, as that makes a VERY big difference on swelling
What about your nose did you actually dislike?
Glad all went well. Getting your splint off is very exciting! Please come back and let us know what you thought.
