Thank you for posting your story here on RealSelf! Did your doctor tell you to remove the packing yourself? That does sound painful. We'd love to see your before and after photos if you feel comfortable sharing (you can even blur out your eyes). Thanks again for being part of the rhinoplasty community!

no. I went to the Doc the next day and he removed the packing, I will post some photos later when I remove the cast so that you can have a clear idea about the results..

i thought they usually remove packing 5 days with the cast too? and that picture looks so uncomfortable. did u just have septoplasty or also a rhinoplasty with it. Im getting septoplasty and rhinoplasty next week. how is your healing going?

This picture is the same day of the surgery (SEPTOPLASTY) don't hesitate to do it it; it is not painful just you will feel uncomfortable for the first 3 days, the DOC actually took the cast off today and I was thrilled with the results:) it is beautifull really do not hesitate at all ..
In regards to the packing they removed it the next day while the cast stayed for 8 days ..
Hope that helps ... I will post the after photos very soon

nice! i'm more excited then nervous. did u also get rhinoplasty?

Like I told 2 other people on here (2 so far!), I think you looked fine before you had your nose done (unless you were just having a deviated septum fixed which isn't the case, is it?). You don't have a side view though, so I can't speak for that. Just my opinion of course. I hope it turns out great because I've been reading that it's harder for them to do nose jobs when the correction is minor (and in my opinion, yours was minor, unless I'm not seeing something with your profile).
