“Help with rhinoplasty”
Rhinoplasty: Worth it
Cost: $10,000
Pain: Uncomfortable
Pain: Uncomfortable
Rhinoplasty satisfaction: Fair
I'm really worried about the results of my rhinopasty and the doc has not even taken the splint off yet (had surgery 6 days ago). Is it normal to feel this way? I'm worried that the space above my lip is too big. Does that part usually get swollen too?

It was worth it after all!!! I was in shock at first because my face was still swollen, but now I love the fat grafting and rhinoplasty that he did.
I will submit some pictures very soon. I just want to let everyone know that if you are considering rhinoplasty I highly recomened the Doc that I went to in LA....I don't know If you can say names on this cite, so you can email me if need be.

You have a long way to recover. There is so much swelling, that it takes months to all go away. Give it time.

Love your nose. I live in the UK, have the money to go to the top surgeons but don't know who to trust. Could you email me the name of your surgeon as I'm really impressed with your nose.

Hey I love your nose! I was wondering what doctor in LA you went to. Also how was the consultation? Is he thorough with how he is going to do the procedure and does he do computer imaging? I hope to hear from you! Thanks

You can actually put the MD you went to in the body of your review - when I submitted mine... (side note: the site director e-mailed me after I posted a question asking me to write a review)... the form for the review asked me his name but said it was optional.
