I've always had a huge nose and got named called alot because of it. So before I hit puberty I wanted a nose job. I'm 26 yrs old now and can finally afford it. I did alot of research and read reviews of Dr Stephen Metzinger of Merairie, LA. It's been 3 days so far since surgery, still have bandages on but I call tell I will lovey new nose. I return Weds to get stitches removed.

I have the habit of taking pictures at an angle. Will see if my Dr will give me a copy of the before he took on office when I go back

you're already pretty I'm sure the rhino will just enhance what you already have! I take all of my pictures from the side or some type of angle as well

Thank you I don't feel pretty 85% of the time because of my nose.. But hopefully I will now can't wait until big day

Congratulations and happy healing !!!!!! Keep us posted on the fabulous results.

Wow I'm very surprised you claim to be teased before. Just a question not a critique...why did he make your new nose point upward? Did you ask for that?
August 30, 2015
You know that never actually came to my attention unuil you bought it up. I suspect when it fully heal the tip would drop a bit. I had my boobs done too and once those healed they slightly dropped.

Please don't let my curiosity deter your satisfaction of your surgery. I was just curious that's all. Like you stated the healing process takes time. Thank u for sharing your experience. Happy healing

I personally don't think you needed it, you are beautiful, I know you didn't ask but I think your old nose is better, just my opinion
September 26, 2015
Be sure to post when you are fully healed, I'm sure it will be nice but I want to see your results, good luck

Thank you, the surgery wasn't the worst part, not even the healing. Those things getting take out inside was...painful but not in a shouldn't have done it way.

What was bad about it?
August 19, 2015
It hurted,not trying to scar anyone but i was in tears. And i have high tolerance for pain. the splint was about 3 ins long lounged way up there. Had mucusous crust and dried blood holding on to it. But its over now and so glad
August 21, 2015
Wow! Looks really good already! How are your family and friends taking this big change?
August 21, 2015
Tgey are taking it pretty well, said they can tell i will like it once swelling goes down completely. But i can tell it swollen, makes me a lil self conscience that strangers are lookin at big it is right now. I cant wait to see final results
August 21, 2015
Looking good so far. What exactly did you get done? Did he use implant or graft?
August 21, 2015
Graft from my ear.. just made it narrower at end and bridge was flat so lifted that
