“Wide Nose- Surgery Scheduled in a Few Weeks - Ontario, Canada ”
Spent: $7,797 in Ontario, Canada
Posted 20 Dec 2010
I'm scheduled to have surgery in the middle of January and I'm so nervous. I am very happy with my looks but my nose is always something that I'm self-conscious about. It's wide and flat and kind of has a bump on it. Overall, it just needs to be changed. lol
My parents are NOT HAPPY with my decision to get rhino but I lied and told them it was for a deviated septum (like celebrity lie about...) so they kinda bought it.
My boyfriend (who is caucasion) is kind of worried about the outcome as well.
Im kinda nervous about this surgery because the doctor seems to have a vision of how to shape my nose but is telling me that he'll basically do what he finds best to narrow and lift my nose while the surgery is performed.
I'm really worried but VERY excited because I've wanted this forever. I just wish my parents weren't so offended. They keep on telling me I'll look like Michael Jackson and they keep on telling me that I'll hate how I look afterwards because Im a pretty girl now.
Any words of advice? Any encouraging things to consider while I'm at the pre-op stage? I'll post pics after the surgery!

You are a lovely lady, that's for sure. But I can understand wanting a nose tweak (after all, I did it several years back). Michael Jackson had at least three or four nose jobs by the looks of things. So, no, you likely will not end up looking like him.
Just make sure you feel comfortable with your board certified doctor. It's true that there's only so much they can do to a nose depending on its structure. If you're confident he'll do his best with the confines of your body tissues, there's no need to be nervous. You'll do great.
Looking forward to seeing your After photos!
If i didn't have the implant itd be 5,900.

When is your surgery? Is it this week?
Thinking about you with fingers and toes crossed.
