My nose was super deviated from a previous rhinoplasty, I could not breath, and aesthetically it looked weird.

Great review?

I'm only about 4 weeks out so far, but I can finally breath, and my nose looks more or less straight. The results have so far exceeded my expectations, although there is a significant amount of asymmetrical swelling which kind of sucks. Had kind of hoped that the bridge could have been built back up a bit more, but the result is still nice. Realistically I don't even know if building it up more was feasible. Plan for significant (30+ minute) wait times. I've learned that this is just part of going to the Dr. WIll update as things get better.

Hi Jonnyboy, I'd love to know more about your previous rhino and what Dr. Shah fixed, as I just went to him for a revision. Also would like to know how your progress is going!

Thanks for sharing your story here with us! So glad you can breath. That's pretty important! Here's to the swelling going down soon.
