WORTH IT$6,500

Well, I've been wanting to fix the hump on my nose and the bulbous tip for a looong time. I feel I've let it control my life in some ways. It really takes a toll on my self esteem. This past year I've put my education on the back burner and I've been working my touchy off at an awful call center job. I've finally raised enough money to go through with it. Yay! I've done all my research and I've picked a doctor. Now I'm going under the knife in 3 weeks! During the consultation, my doctor and I agreed that we wouldn't touch the tip of my nose, only the bridge. Now I'm starting to have second thoughts. I think I would regret missing out on this chance to make it less bulbous. I would really appreciate a second opinion from you guys. What do you think?

Hi there! It doesn't look bulbous at all from the photo. Can you post a profile shot?

You deserve this! Sounds like you're really done your homework and I hope you get the exact nose you've been hoping for.

Please keep us posted as the big day nears!

Thanks for the warm welcome! It's so nice to be able to connect with people in my shoes or who have gone through this already.

I've posted a few more photos. It's weird adding a profile pic when I've tried so hard to hide it all these years, but voila!

I'll be sure to update as soon as anything changes.

Hey my surgery is on feb 3rd ;)
I too have a hump :/ and my PS will not be touching my tip ;)
I think ur tip is nice and if u touch ur tip it will look to fake.
Btw do u have an IPhone? If u do download the app for Dr. Solomon. It's cool u can upload a pic and see what you would look like if you had the hump removed.
Anyway keep in touch ;)

I agree, your tip looks lovely. But if it bothers YOU, you should discuss what your surgeon can do for you. Is your doctor board certified by ASPS and ASAPS and a rhino specialist? Super important!

3 days before surgery. I'm getting pretty excited, but at the same time it doesn't seem real. I'm going through my check list to make sure I have everything I need. Its so hard to just sit back and wait.

Hey I got surgery a week ago today . I am getting my cast removed in a few hrs :)
I like you had a dorsal hump. The PS just saved it off and readjusted my nasal bones.

This recovery has been easy!!!!
I was given a prescription for a strong med. I didn't even use it. I only took medicine the day after and that was Tylenol. I also bought Tylenol PM to help me sleep. I took that the 3rd day. I have some tips on my profile that might help u. I don't have any bruising, the last day I say bruising was day 5. I think this was because of what I ate and Armica 30x.
I have no swelling! My PS didn't touch my tip, maybe I will have swelling on my bridge.
Anyway wish u luck. If u have any questions message me :)

I just had my surgery yesterday... it wasn't as bad I thought it would be.... I must admit though I was really scared and nervous since it was my first surgery, and it ended up being a piece of cake! Anyways I wish you the best of luck.....! You will do fine, just make sure to stock up on jello, yogurts and lots of water! I found those things to be really helpful so far. They really soothe your throat. 3 more days keep us updated!

Just had my rhinoplasty on February 10th and it went smoothly. No pain just like a bad cold afterwards with congestion. You will do great. I was so nervous, but it was a breeze. Good luck!

Today is the day! I don't think I'm as nervous as I should be. Maybe it will hit when I get there. Right now I'm just kind of hungry XD
