20 months post op
WORTH IT$16,001
Thought I would post nose photos 20 months post op. As you can see I had a very subtle change, I still have a small bump on one side (think it is scar tissue as it is soft when gently pressed) which I think can make my nose look slightly uneven at times. However, it is definitely an improvement so I'm pretty happy. I would add that I must have thick skin on my nose so even now it continues to change. Hope this is helpful :-)

I had a 5 month post op catch up today. The Dr said there was still swelling which would take about a year to subside, he pushed down on my nose and said he expects some of the swelling to go down another 1-2mm. Here's hoping!
I'm very happy with the results, which I think are subtle and natural. However, I'm less happy with my one side which you can see has a much larger bump than the other! (fingers crossed it's swelling and will go down). I've attached some photos I took today, holding my 'before' pics! :-)

My nose is similar to yours from the left 3/4 view; not the exact same, but I have a bump on the top of the right side. You look great though!

Thanks! It is a bit of a frustration as I had really hoped to get rid of that bump, the Dr suggested that there is still a few mm of swelling..and it can take a year for it to all resolve, so I'm just going to wait patiently for now!! I'm just curious to see how much is actually swelling. I noticed you had your op quite recently too, so it could be swelling!

Pretty sure mine isn't swelling. That bump was there beforehand haha. He took it down some, but he explained to me that he couldn't get it all the way down without causing other issues. Idk really I'm not a doctor. Either way it isn't terribly bad. Hopefully yours goes down, though!

You look so natural and gorgeous, really made your features feminine. Don't stress over one 3/4 angle at 5 months when every other angle is perfect. It could be swelling, in reality it's very minimal that no one would notice.

Thanks - that's really nice to hear, I hope my 3/4 bump goes down - but you are definitely right I shouldn't stress over it! I'm going to wait patiently for a year to pass and for all the swelling to go before making a final judgement on that :-)

My nose swelling is slowly subsiding, I notice little differences each day... It definitely looked straight again last night (phew!) I still have the 'ghost' of a bump on one side of my nose - although I've read that this is swelling from the hump removal (fingers crossed). So for now it's just the waiting game!
I'm still so happy with my new nose - it's such an improvement. My boyfriend says that he doesn't think I needed it, but he can tell it looks better now, so I think that's definitely a success!
