I really want to get rhinoplasty ... My nose is too big for my face .. I live in Brisbane. Who is the best surgeon to use? What is the cost? What happens afterwards? Do you have to stay in hospital
Or go home? I have great breathing will it affect that?
What do I need to help the recovery process? How long will I need off work, I don't want people knowing I got it done.

i didn't tell my mum i was getting it done and i was fretting about seeing her in-case she noticed.
me: ah crap what if she notices?? i said anxiously
riles: its never as bad as you think it is, sometimes when im mowing i think hey this isnt as bad as i though it was going to be and then dred it for the next month.
me: lets make brownies!! :)
so i live out of home and 12 days after the operation i saw my mum for breakfast and i didnt tell her i was getting it done because she was extremely against it. now i have $20 bets going with my dad and sister on weather she will find out or be able to tell and so far so good.
So me and mum were sitting there for eating breakfast and she was looking at me funny and i was thinking to myself "omg she so knows, any minute now shes going to slam her coffee mug on the table point at me and yell "nose job" but as it happens she didnt and now i feel like im in the clear and she'll never know or if she does itll be old news,
like this one time me and my sister were cooking poppadoms after school and the oil overheated and caught fire so i called the fire brigade to ask how to put it out and they insisted on coming around, we cleaned up everything and threw the pot in the bin before mum came home apart from range head with was melted underneath..nothing we could do about that. Anywhoo like 8months later she was cleaning the stove and range hood and she and was like
mum: "what happened here, a fire???"
me: "you probably did it without noticing dragon lady"
mum: " no its like completely burnt on the inside"
me: well me and chevaun were cooking papadums and the fire brigade came to put it out
mum: "Fire brigade!!??"
Chevaun: do you have some sort of hearing infirmity mother?
me: "arg send me and invoice"
the point of the story is that it was old news by then so we didn't get in trouble, so if she finds out in a year or 5 it'll be old news by then, although i did have an elaborate story about a kitchen catastrophe ready to tell if she did notice a change :)

my mom wants a nose job now so bad since i got mine (i inherited her nose!) ur kitchen story was funny it sounds like something out of my life

Isn't he the President of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons? yeah I've heard he is good. Your nose looked nice before and even better now. I'm also having Rhino at the end of the year, I haven't found a surgeon yet. It's very had to know who is the best. Was that the full cost you paid? seems very reasonable. I was quoted more then that.

tiffypoo you should do reveiw of your nose job experience :)
Hi miley04, i had some breathing problems as well so i got a medicare rebate so the full cost was around 7.4K but i got about $900 back from medicare cos i had a septoplasty as well. His work is very natural so if your looking for a subtle natural change then go to him. I will post more photos i just need to buy a new digital camera so they should be up by monday. I feel like my nose was smaller when i got the cast off then swelled up a bit, which i hope will go away its only day 17. Reguardless my nose is better then before.

day 10 so all is good although it feels uncomfortable to smile but no one can tell ive had a nose job theres no brusing and im really happy with it so far, theres still a bit of swelling but as you can probably see on the profile. so my advice to anyone is to definantly go for it but make sure you go to someone who is qualified and in australia is a member of the australian plastic surgery society. my Plastic surgeon is really good he did what i wanted his work is genious i love my new nose

i really enjoyed reading about your surgery! so glad it was a postive experience for you. i was so messed up...it made me bold--really bold! so much so that i grabbed the nurses paperwork off the table beside me and was reading over it (i wanted to read what she had written about my surgery) and she came over and said "are you reading my notes!?!" and i said "yeah...i am" hahaha then I laughed and cried all the way home
I'd love it if you'd write your own review! Feel free to start now and update as your healing progresses.
Go here when you're ready.
