Hello everyone! I'm a 16 year old girl from the beautiful state of Hawaii. I actually just moved here from Alaska ( I know HUGE climate change) Anywho I've been wanting to change my nose since I was 12. The constant bullying throughout middleschool really changed my outgoing personality. I became ashamed of my face and would hide behind my hair. I wouldn't talk as much and would come home crying. Whenever someone would say that I was pretty I would never believe it. Having friends who had cute, little noses and then there was me with a larger nose made me feel so out of place. When I was 15 I decided to do research on Rhinoplasty. Seeing the video diaries on YouTube scared me a lot because of how bruised their faces were. But then I read more about how it really wasn't painful at all. Seeing how happy they all were after they got the cast off made me happy for them! I don't want to feel so insecure around people anymore and cringe at candid pictures of my profile. I want to be happy and feel confident! Hopefully someday I will be able to get this procedure done. I definitely will be saving up. And when I do get it done you can bet I will be on here posting about my experience(:

What I Want To Change In My Nose
As you can see in the picture my nose is quite bulbous. I want to reduce the size of that. I also want to shave down the hump.I've doing A LOT of research on surgeons. I think I'm going to have to fly out of state to get this procedure done. There isn't anyone in my area who specializes in rhinoplasty. I'm fine with flying out of state because it is my face and I want a doctor who has had a lot of experience.

Feeling A Little Down
So I saw some pictures that my mom and dad had taken and it had my side profile in it. I got really mad and deleted them. Then I started to cry....I know it may sound silly, but my nose has been my biggest insecurity. Getting rhinoplasty is just a dream that I have. I don't know if i'll ever get it but I hope someday I will.

Your current nose looks really cute. It isn't big from the front, that's for sure.

Your story is just like mine!!! My nose has always been a HUGE insecurity for me. Changing was the best thing I ever did. It's not perfect now, but it's perfect in my eyes and I love it. No matter what anyone says about my nose now I don't listen to them and it rolls right off my back because I finally feel beautiful for the first time in my life. It feels SO good. No one can bring you down after that. I hope you get what you want :)

Thank you so much(: I'm happy for you and happy that you are more confident in yourself! I just sent Dr. G an email and I can't wait for him to respond:D
Thanks for starting your story on RealSelf! I know it sucks to be the one with the big nose (I was too), but if you really look around you'll see that you're not alone. I hope you're able to get this done one day (research your prospective surgeons like crazy). And please do keep us posted!
