Well today is exactly 2 weeks later no swelling or bruising at all that Arnica really helped a lot I had minimal brusing and very lil swelling. My nose is perfectly natural looks like my Mom's now : ) The worst part of surgery was afterwards having a sore throat because i had general anesthesia , so I had to cut my pain pill in half to get it down. In all took maybe 5 pain pills in all, if no one tells you this let me prescription pain meds with anesthesia spells constipation so be careful I'm a Surgery Coordinator. So knew this so get yourself regular before having surgery and try not to take pain meds too long switch to Tylenol when you can. Hope everyone the best!!

He did a really good job, you look really pretty !!
Wowwwww, it looks like you healed extremely fast! ("11 days later" pic). I'm seriously considering surgery early next year. Could you tell me about the overall experience (environment of surgery, before and after care, did you live in the area or have to travel, etc?). Thank you.
The experience was what you would expect exciting an scary at same time but I trusted my doctor who teachs at Loma Linda University Medical School and the staff was great... and the most important part take Arnica for about a week or so before surgery it will control bruising and swelling totally. Some people on this site look like they were kicked in the head a few times after surgery and I believe it was because they didnt take Arnica before surgery like my doctor instructed me too. Best of luck!
You look terrific. Much softer and elegant. You were a very pretty girl before and your rhinoplasty surgery just seems to have enhanced your natural beauty. Congratulations on the great results and thank-you for sharing your story and pictures.
gosh you have like no swelling! thats amazing! it looks fantastic :)
Yeah it was great experience... I looked at other people after pictures and was petrified but it depends on the surgeon.. the person and how well they take care of themselves I guess? OOh and definatly take Arnica before and after surgery till swelling and bruising is gone. I did have a very little ..little swelling & bruising in corner of left eye two days after but went away within a day or two.
Yeah I have practically no bruising but I swelled up like a balloon! I'm only one week out and it's been going down pretty fast so I hope it stays that way :)
