I've been considering having my nose done for years, and was waiting for the right time in my life. It's finally time! I was getting tired of looking in the mirror & photographs and being so critical of my nose. I have a fairly small face, and my nose just seems so out of proportion. I'm not expecting a tiny, cute as a button nose. I would like something that is natural looking and less prominent.

I especially hate pictures of me taken from the front view, since my nose is so wide. Of course I've found which angles hide this most successfully, and there are many pictures of myself that I do enjoy looking at. I've decided (for now) to only upload pictures of my nose that I dislike.

I have been getting more and more excited as the...

I have been getting more and more excited as the date is quickly approaching! Around 3 weeks to go. I am a bit nervous now though, because I am quite the perfectionist and even the slightet things bother me for weeks on end. For example - I had to get some dental crowns placed and bonding touched up on my front teeth, and I can't stop looking in the mirror and thinking this tooth should be slightly longer, this tooth should be less round, the colour isn't 110% accurate. How am I going to cope with slight imperfections after my rhinoplasty? I'm sure the results will look great compared to my current nose, but I am so picky! and a bit concerned about my expectations and the outcome.

I also became a bit concerned when I received my before/after photos from my digital imaging appointment. (The ones posted here were from my initial consultation, and some that I did myself.) I know the front view is difficult to accurately portray, so I wasn't too worried about that. The problem was that my profile view didn't seem to have a significant enough change. It still looked too large and not feminine at all. I did voice my concerns, and was told that the after image was underdone since it really will depend on how my nose heals. I am crossing my fingers for a less projected profile! I also sent a few versions of edited images of my profile that I would prefer to have, so I'm really hoping one of these will be attainable.

2 more days!!! I'm so excited to get this done!

I was planning on stocking up on supplies today, but I've decided to put that off until tomorrow night. Did anyone have trouble eating the first couple of days after? I'm wondering if I should also pick up some softer food.
Here's what I'm planning on getting:
-neck pillow
-polysporin ointment
-frozen peas (even though already have a few freezer gel packs)
-q-tips..extra cotton on the tips?
-medical tape
-gauze
-saline nasal spray
-Otrovin nasal spray
-cotton balls
-new pjs for lounging around in :)

I'm also going to buy Arnica pills, however I can only seem to find the Arnica Sin Ecch brand for sale through my doctor. I tried a few health food stores, but the brands were different, and I was paranoid they wouldn't be as good. My doctor's office is selling 12 (I think..or was it 9?) pills for $53. Is this typical? Seems rather pricey, but I'll buy them either way.

I had been considering two surgeons based on online research, and knew someone that had her nose done with one of them about a year ago. After meeting her doctor, I knew immediately this is who I wanted to choose. The timing worked out perfectly for me and I decided to book my surgery date shortly after the consultation. In researching the two doctors, one had both negative & positive reviews, and the other had only good reviews that I could find. I also watched YouTube videos of a few of his patients' recovery periods and was reassured by their outcomes. Of course, I chose the one with good reviews. He is known for giving his patients natural looking noses.
