50 Year Old Mother of Two from Sydney, Australia - Philippines, PH

I am a 50 year old full time working woman from Sydney, Australia. I have two children and one grandchild. I started looking into Rhinoplasty overseas, as it was too expensive in Australia and I am a native from Philippines.
I was unhappy with the shape of my nose and wanted a higher tip, smaller nostrils and a nose bridge. I contacted Dr Rino Lorenzo 2 months prior to the operation date, and this time was spent organizing costs, accommodation, and getting my questions answered. After all the details were planned out and I was comfortable with what we had agreed on, I left Australia on July 7th and had my operation on the 9th of July.
I was a bit nervous prior to the procedure but everything went smoothly and well and I am very happy with the result. I stayed in Manila for the next 3 weeks, checking in with the doctor 3 or 4 times before I was cleared and left for Australia on the 28th of July, 2014.
It has now been 7 weeks since the procedure and my nose is looking better and more natural. The swelling has decreased incredibly, and I am now able to wear sunglasses and makeup. Thank you to my doctor, Dr Rino Lorenzo, who has helped me find the solution.

I just wanted to add on my story that i was on under local anesthesia during my surgery. It was a little bit uncomfortable in the beginning but after the anesthetic kicked in it was all great. no pain not even after the operation. For those who wanted to have Rhinoplasty operation , I can assure you that local anesthesia is very safe and less on your budget. For all those people who want to do Rhinoplasty, Wish you all good luck .
