  • Posted to A Dream That Has Turned to a Nightmare - Ramat Aviv on 8 Jun 2012
    When I scrolled down to look at your pictures, I was expecting to see a disaster. Far from it. I saw an attractive girl!

    You're focusing too much on a percieved flaw. None of our noses are perfect after surgery. My nose is often swollen at different times of the day and it is annoying. But like you I'm at the 5 month mark and I know that my nose is going to change in the next seven months. Sometimes I look at my nose and it seems wide, but it's the changes in swelling which has caused it. It sounds like the same thing happened to you.

    Like someone else said you are MORE than your nose. Much much more. I will admit, that when I had my rhinoplasty, I expected life to change instantly. I expected to feel more beautiful (and whilst I feel infinitely more confident) I've learned there are no quick fixes for esteem and feeling gorgeous. Being gorgeous comes from within. I have friends who aren't classically beautiful-but their stunning personalities mean they are surrounded by adoring men. I struggle to get dates and I'm called beautiful often (not trying to brag here, just make a point).

    Get away from that mirror. Smile at a stranger, and you will see beauty. You will feel beauty. Your nose is a tiny part of the person you are (and it's perfectly fine). Learn to love who you are-all of it. And you won't feel ugly a day in your life.

    Yes, just try and be patient. I know it is hard, because you want your nose to be perfect, but give your body time to heal!

    I am sure your nose looks beautiful! Get away from that mirror, get yourself out there and be your liberated, fabulous self! :)

    Hey adp,

    I was really panicked about the swelling on my nose too. The left side of my nose is still pretty swollen (I think that was the side he made the incision)....I've heard it can take a couple months for the swelling to subside massively

    I think if the swelling really does struggle to subside, they can give you a steroid injection? I'm not sure how well these work though.

    I'm sure you look great though hun X
