7 more days til my consult! Wish me luck!
PRE WARNING, I haven't gotten a nose job yet,...
PRE WARNING, I haven't gotten a nose job yet, but I am looking into it and I am 100% going to do it, I just don't know when! But I will provide you all with pictures of my side profiles, so you can tell me what you think in your honest opinion. I'm not the best looking thing, eh. I'll also put some photos in there that'll look like I've had a nose job but really I just went to facetouchup.com and I gave myself a virtual nose job. hehe.
I could tell you all the same reason why I don't like my nose, and how I didn't like it from a certain age which was around 11 or 12ish.
Which is ALL true.
I'm 20 now and I'll be 21 in March....I've really contemplated and wanted a nose job ever since I can remember and all my friends and family have known this as well.
I'm half italian, you can tell a lot by my nose, it's ethic looking, could be described as jewish/arabic nose. It kind of resembles a birds beak, most people tell me my nose fits my face, but I don't think so. I think it's too big and too harsh on my face, I feel like a nose that's more suitable to my face would soften my features and be more feminine.
Now, without a doubt, my nose is not my ONLY problem, it used to be but over the years I've started to be self conscious about everything on my face, but my nose has been the main problem and well, I'm sure you all believe that a nose can either make or break a face. I'd go on a 6 page essay but I don't feel it's necessary to explain how MUCH I hate my nose, because let's face it, if I'm HERE, I obviously hate it enough to be researching all this stuff on the computer instead of just brushing it off my shoulders.

I'm putting up more photos, I figured I'd...
As you can tell, you can notice my nose is quite large, but you can't really tell much from the front until you see my side profile.
There will be pictures I upload that are from my wedding.

P.S. for those of you who didn't read my information, I did NOT get a nose job yet. These are just different angles and views of my face so you can all see that I have a big schnozz. :)
Okay, so...I've found two plastic surgeons so...
One is located in new york, and the other is located in Miama Florida.
Now, here's the problem, I live in North Carolina...my husband is stationed here because he is in the Marines, I don't know when or if we will ever be stationed elsewhere, but I know that I want the best of the best rhinoplasty surgeon to do my nose, no matter where I'm located.
I know that traveling to a surgeon that's out of state will obviously cost much more, but I've already searched for plastic surgeons in the NC area and not really many come up that look like they'd be very good at rhinoplasty and I don't like their work they've done.
Now, I've broken my nose three times in my life, all of these events in which it happened were when I was under the age of 13, possibly even 10. (Ah, I probably should know when all the times they happened but sadly I don't)
I know that I do definitely have a deviated septum and I know that I was told I'll need surgery on it eventually. I'm not sure if having a deviated septum will somehow make my rhinoplasty surgery cheaper by any means, considering it may be considered medical and not cosmetic. However, I have to be honest, I know my nose has been broken 3 times and I have a deviated septum, I have no problems with my nose that I know of, I mean I broke it all when I was young, so even if I did have a problem, I'm sure I've passed it off as something normal, but so far. No problems, I don't even snore at night, I'm quiet as a mouse....
If any of you could help me with this kind of question, that would be greatly appreciated. Either way, if it's not covered under medical, I still will go through with it and save up the money, I believe it's worth it and I want to feel happy about my reflection in the mirror. :)

Ahh yes! I've been looking at two plastic surgeons and they're both out of state, which sucks! One is in New York and he's supposed to be the best of the best in Rhinoplasty....and then there's another one who's located in Miami Florida and he also looks like he does a great job with Rhinoplasty, so I'm kind of torn between the two, because the one in NY I believe charges A LOT for Rhinoplasty.....close to 15,000.....but he's suppose to be really good! So, I have no clue, they both seem like really good doctors. I kind of don't want to change too much of my frontal view, but I don't want it to not match with my side profile. Because I know some before and after pictures, the side looks great but the front looks crappy. P.S. most of the frontal views look wider because they're still very swollen, but that'll go down I'm sure unless if those people wanted a wider nose, lol. Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. :)
Oh girl. You're SO pretty. I really hope you know that. You have gorgeous eyes, beautiful, young, smooth skin, awesome, full lips and a straight nose. I think you're GORGEOUS. Coming from another woman who badly wanted a nose job, I can understand why you feel the way you do and know that nothing can convince you otherwise, but you really are a beauty.
If you're determined to go through with it, and I know you are, here's my two cents: Find the BEST rhinoplasty doctor in your area that you can. Make sure he or she specializes in rhinoplasty and is board certified. Also make sure that you communicate fully with your doctor about what you want. If you do these things, I think the chances are good that you'll end up with a nose that makes you happy.
I've always hated my nose, always, always and everyone in my family knows I've always wanted a nose job.
I am going to do just that, find the BEST rhinoplasty doctor because I know that my nose may be big, but I know that if I pick a crappy doctor, I could end up looking wayyyyy worse and I don't want that. I don't want some perfect small little button nose either because I know my facial structure and my features wouldn't mesh well together, I'm being realistic and not setting my expectations too high. I don't want it to be the perfect nose, I just want it to be the perfect nose for my face, and I want it to bring all my features together in harmony. I feel like my nose is not very feminine and I think a nose that fits my face more will make my face more feminine and much softer to look at, but I do know that this is what I want to do and I will work my butt off getting this done because in the end, I want to be happy about what I look like and it may sound shallow and vain and most people don't understand, and think there's more important things to worry about in life but I feel like being happy with who you are and what you look like is very important because if you aren't it can really hold some people back in life.
Sorry for the long long long comment, I've just been in dire need to talk to people about this issue and I finally can. Thanks so much for the feedback. :)
