WORTH IT$6,500
so its my 10th day post op and i just took the tape off . I cannot BELIEVE how good my nose looks (thank you God and Dr.Clutter)!!!! it was CLOSED RHINOPLASTY so there is absolutely no sign of the nose job. it looks outstanding! If you would like to see it, i will send it to you. Had to take my pics off due to respect for my family.
xoxo guys. please do a ton of research before you decide to take the big step! Make sure the surgeon MAINLY focuses on noses/face.

Hello I've asked before but just thought I'd try again. I'm getting a rhinoplasty from Dr.Clutter this July and wondered if you could send me before and afters? Pleaseeeee?
I just posted some before and after pictures.
Yes if course! Shoot me an email! I promise ur in good hands! ;)
Sent you a private message ;)
Hey just wondering if you can still send me some pics? Thanks
Photos, even if the are just close ups of the nose, are really helpful, we would love to see your terrific results!
Hi there! Im planning on getting my nose done by Dr. Clutter too! Did insurance help at all with cost?
I didn't have insurance but I think it helps and I had just local anesthesia not general anesthesia. When you go under with general anesthesia, it costs more
picts?
would love to see some before and after pics? I am considering using DR. clutter and still deciding .

ah how do you contour your nose? I want to learn in the meantime before I have mine done in the next few months
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE2_hKQvrxc&list=PLD990DD0099813A92&index=11 copy and paste- that's how i learned :)
You are the first person I have seen that looks as swollen as I was and with nice makeup under and above the eyes. LOL I thought I was the only one that was that swollen. My swelling lasted for a week and bruising for almost 2 weeks. My dr. said he had no idea why I was swollen more than most, must be something we eat or do that makes us swell up this bad. Good luck with your cast removal and don't be shocked when he takes it off as it will not look as great as you expect it to look. I was in a complete shock, had to sit down for a bit than go back and look at myself again. I looked at myself in the mirror all the way home and was wondering who that was on the other side. LOL Keep us posted and good luck!
yeah i nearly fainted when i saw what my face looked like. i am a vitamin FIEND and so i think that's why i bruised this much. its just very irritating cuz i wanna be able to see what i really look like (makeup and all) and i can't :( . I think it'll look good, but patience is NOT my virtue.
You and me both. I think I drive my surgeon crazy. I went to see him 9 days post op than again in 3 weeks and now next Friday will be 6 weeks for me. I communicate with his PA and him via emails and send him pictures. Lol I think ge will be glad when I am done. Haha like you I am anxious and have no patience. :)
i wanna seee pics girl! so frickin impatient!! ahahaha its these things u don't really think about b4 hand. I knew i'd have to wait, but [RS bleep] i hate staying home this much when i don't even feel drousy or anything!
also...if you could do it again- would u?
I think I would except I would have done a lot more research before. Now I find out about implants which thankfully my doc didn't use on me. I am not missing my old nose as I had a trama and it left me with a nice size bump and eneven. So I think I would.
Send me your email address I will send you some pics. I promissed myself and my doc not to post until 3 months post op. But I can share with you if you want. Send it to support@bitofstyle.net. Its my business emailaemail address.
Wow I wonder why so much bruising? Does it hurt?? Looks so painful!
When I had this much bruising it didn't hurt just uncomfortable as you feel like your face is blowing up and your eyes don't see a clear picture. ;) I was also more swollen on one side than the other. I hope that's the same for this poster.
And forgot to say that I am 1 month post op and still have black under one of my eyes more than the other. I was told it will take a few months to resolve and its due to so much swelling and bruising. So I cover it with make up and n one can tell that I have that black under my eyes but me. I hope to have this gone soon.
absolutely accurate!
not painful at all girly..just frustrating cuz I look scary with my eye balls all RED. LOL don't be scared! its going away slowly. very slowly.... i bet you won't have the same reaction. i'm just lucky :D
yeah. I don't even have under eye bags in general so i have HOPE. do u look good tho? ur nose? results the way you expected and hoped for? PLZ let me know , so curious
I asked my dr about bruising in my consult and he said that sometimes they catch blood vessels and sometimes they don't as they can't really tell where they are so I guess its just luck. the eyes look really sore!
Well my profile is great but the front view is a bit asymetrical and that could be due to uneven swelling. I showed it to my surgeon and he said wait sex weeks. I am seeing him next Friday. He said if need be he can fix things in office under general but not until 8-12 weeks. However things change with me daily. One day I love it next day I find sonething wrong with my nose but seems likeI am the only one who can see those things. But everyone says including my dr that its normal. I still tape my nose at night and wake up swollen a bit. It gets better by mid day. What a journey for someone inpatient like myself.
Haha you and me the lucky once. Lol
I remembet that too. I even called my doc on a cell phone to ask what's going on. He was surprised to see so much bruising and swelling. I think for me its due to having to take my asthma inhaler two hours before durgery and few hours after. Steroid can do that I was told.
