Very easy recovery. I felt very good even on the way home. Virtually no pain. I took one pain pill, mostly because I was afraid I "might" have pain. Tylenol was plenty and I didn't need much of that. Very minimal bruising. Some swelling, but that was expected (swelled for 2 weeks after wisdom teeth).

I breathe much better than I ever have. In regard to cosmetics, I could not have sculpted a nose that fit my face more. I am 2 months post-op and I love the result more every day. My nose looks like it belongs on my face, and is exactly what we discussed.

Helpful review?

My Doctor: C. Spencer Cochran, MD

My rating:

As a physician, I thought long and hard about the risks of having an "elective" procedure. I have had breathing issues since I was a child, and recently began having dental issues as a result. When I decided to have these fixed, along with some cosmetic fixes, I did my research. I knew that Dr. Gunter was "The Nose Man" in Dallas, but after looking at pictures, I preferred the style/aesthetics that Dr. Cochran achieved. After meeting him, he convinced me that he could accomplish the result I was looking for. The result has been amazing.

I was congested but could still breathe somewhat through my nose. The more annoying thing was the feeling of my nose dripping but hanging on the nasal splint inside the nostril because I could not blow my nose. I used a whole box of q-tips that week to clean. But it was easy enough that I would do it again if I had to.

Yay for you! I'm glad it was such a good experience all around. We'd love to see your before and after photos! Some people even black out their eyes if they don't want to be recognized. Thanks so much for posting here on RealSelf. We truly appreciate it!
