Week 27 post Mr Ion revision
Hi realselfers its week 27 since my revision with Mr Ion . I've updated my review for Mr Ion but since I still get comments here I will update here too.
Thanks for the lovely comments I'll try to get some of your questions answered on my reviews and Ive been doing my best to help and reassure a few worried realselfers privately.
Im still so happy and amazed with my new nose. At my appt Mr Ion was happy with it too but when I go back in feb as well as burning off the small lump of scar tissue inside my nostril he wants to pull the columnella up more one side as its still drooped a little. I hadnt even noticed that tbh, the area looks so great to me already after the hideous mess that it was in before. He also offered filler for the indent one side just before my tip. Its not really a dent as such just slightly more narrowed that side than the other side. The other side there is a graft to fix the cave in and possibly thats why it is still fuller that side. Its not noticeable I can feel its slightly different/irregular if i run my fingertips each side. It doesnt bother me and i figure maybe its still more swollen the other side so for now I declined filler and I'll see how it is in february when its fully healed and i return again.
Mr Ion is an excellent caring doctor and I cant thank him enough. To me my nose is beautiful already but he has a professional artists eye and I feel he wants it to be 100% perfect to his mind. I have complete trust in him and his ability he is so different to other doctors who want to ignore patients concerns for errors or imperfections. He took some more pics for computer imaging he told me he thinks the bridge part the top of my nose will reduce and settle more yet and also showed me the small area that he wants to slightly touch up tucking the columnella up a little.
First my old pics came up urgh i could barely look at myself ...then the pics he just took of my new nose came up and the difference took my breath away i beamed from ear to ear I looked like a different person that was actually my face my nose..and I was so happy in that moment that I barely heard what he said :)
My confidence is so much better now Im not in love with myself or anything I still have to gain weight but my God it is so great not to feel the burden of a broken nose on my face. To be able to talk to people and look them in the eye, to not panic over photographs being taken, to not feel the gut wrenching misery everytime I caught my own disfigured reflection. To not feel doubt and heartbreak when my man looks at me and says Im beautiful.
Its cliche I know but it really is as though a dark cloud lifted from me, yes its a huge weight of my shoulders..I never understood what that truly meant till now but it was like a crushing weight and I feel like Im suddenly now so light and free I might float off into the beautiful sky.
My hair is dark again now it was nice being blonde a while and it took peoples attention from my brand new very different nose. I often felt like a witch with my long dark hair and ugly beak Ive even had strange kids shy away from me when i smiled at them. Well I no longer look like a witch lol Im a pretty elf instead! lol
A few pics for you will follow and I'll email harley street and see if Mr Ion will forward me the pics he took in the office as someone said I havent posted enough from front angle . I ve posted looooooads of pics probably more pics than any other review lol but heres a few more for now.

Update 19 weeks post Mr Ion magic
Hi all I see I have a few comments to answer here sorry I've been busy enjoying life again.
I still have some breathing issues one side. The passage is narrow like the wall is too thick still i think its still swollen but external swelling has gone.
My story was in the newspaper again this time with a happy ending. To all considering surgery reading my horror story here please see Mr Ion he has changed and saved my life.
Best wishes and big hugs to all X x

History of my nose side profile
A line of pics of my profile from pre rhino to today :)
Provider Review
Mr Jon Clibbon
Made a total mess of my nose in all 3 ops. Failed to warn me of the difficulty involved in achieving a good result. Overshortened my nose as well as a long list of other problems with it.Terrible scar made worse by a missed a stitch and a knot left stuck inside. Wasn't there for shocking cast removal or days later when I was frightened and had infection infact nobody was available to help secretary told me to go to a+e hospital instead. Failed to diagnose infection and inflammation of columella due to retained stitch.
