Rhinoplasty: Stories

I believe I have two lives. The one before Rhinoplasty , and the one after. As far as I can remember I always had a rather large, bulky nose; which presented me with a masculine appearance and making the rest of my facial features seem non proportional. I hated all cameras and I tried my very best to avoid taking pictures. Just when I thought my large nose couldn’t get any worse, a car accident occurred causing some trauma to it. It was the start of the New Year that made me declare enough is enough, and I wanted to undergo Rhinoplasty. I started my quest of finding the right doctor, with endless amounts of consultations and appointments. Most of them were located in New York City and came with high end prices, as well as me having to hear them suggest other procedures that I might need. I thought this was all a money making gimmick, and a mere turn off in my opinion. Finally, I decided to search local as I am a Jersey native and I came across Dr. Joseph. I was impressed by his before and after images on his website and decided it wouldn’t hurt to go on one more consultation.

I scheduled my surgery for his first available appointment. April 11th to be exact and just couple of day’s right before my birthday. The day of my surgery arrived, and it was done at St. Barnabas Ambulatory Care Center, located in Livingston NJ. The operation lasted about 2 hours. During my recovery period which was about a week, I experienced no pain or discomfort. I was just very anxious to have the cast removed as I could already tell my nose was looked smaller even with the cast on. The cast removing day arrived, and the sight of a mirror never seemed so delightful! My nose was beautiful and looked even better than I expected. My face had a more feminine appearance and my other facial features looked better. It has now been 6 months since my surgery.
