I had a tip rhinoplasty, nostrils narrowed and nose set back slightly.  I asked for a subtle look, because I was afriaid it would look too small.  But It's too subtl, I had it done two weeks ago and have to see same surgeon again to see if I'm happy with it.  I want it done again and this time i'll be more specific about the amount I want done.  I just don't want to wait a whole year again.  I want to know If it's possible to have it done in 3 months or so as it's hardly any swelling now anyway.

I also had mine done about 2 wks ago and I still don't see hardly anything different.. I feel like I spent so much money on this and I expect to see something.. So, anyways, I emailed the Dr, because I"m out of state, and I said that I'm concerned because I really don't see any difference.. He told me that I have to be patient, that the nose takes awhile to heal, and that it really could take up to a year.. I would think I could see something???

well yes you should see some difference now. It's 6 weeks for me now and I'm going to have it done again. Hopefully I won't have to pay the full amount, but I want more of a difference. Tell your surgeon that you want it done again. I think if your not happy they do it for free.

Most dr's want you to wait a year. I'm in no rush right now, plus I had the procedure done in another state , so that's a hassle in itself.. I will just wait it out and see if I am happy with the results, g/l to you!

I had mine done 2 weeks ago too and I cant notice any difference at all. I dont know whether this is normal or not, but my doctor is telling me to be patient. I am really so disappointed

Well, it's been over 8 wks now and I have to say.. I really do like my new nose..just wish it was a little bit different.. but not so sure i want to go through all that bruising and swelling again.. something to definitely think about.. plus not have the vacation time anymore is another issue!

Had dorsal hump removed in August 2008. Results at first - great. Then swelling subsided.Very disappointed and alarmed at new and unflattering shape. Have an appointment for revision recommendations w/ different doctor.
