    How is the progress going? I am curious to see how your nose looks now... I had my surgery with Dr. Petroff and I am 9 days out.. I like my nose but really need to see the swelling go down... I am worried about some aspects of it (or maybe I am just not used to looking at myself with my new nose). Thanks!

    Thanks so much for your advice. You have really helped me throughout this process! I don't think I could have been so positive without your blog. I had such a great experience at Dr. Petroff's office, they are amazing. I am on Day 2 and don't have too much bruising, definitely swelling and my face looks "avatar-like." He said my nose looked really great when he was done and thinks I will be really happy with it. It's just hard waiting! You look great, I'm hoping I look as good as you when my cast is off! I really think it's a long process-- like watching your hair grow. So you will like it now, but it will slowly grow into itself by a year. I think that's a good thing because people will see a slow change as opposed to an abrupt difference. Keep up the good healing!

    I am so excited to see this review! I am actually scheduled with Dr. Petroff on December 19th and I am starting to get really nervous. Your review has settled me a little. It looks like your healing is going really well! I am also doing the vitamin program as well. I sometimes forget to take the 3 tablets every am and pm, but hopefully it will still help. I have not received info about this twilight vs general anesthesia... could you elaborate a little about that? Can't wait to see more pictures! I am flying to San Francisco for NYE on December 30th, which will be 12 days after my surgery, only 4 after cast removal day.. It is making me nervous to go out in public and socialize that soon, but I guess I am doing it! So it will be great to see your progress and hopefully get a good idea what my state may be at that time. I am glad to hear Dr. Petroff was a good surgeon, I actually have not even met him yet because I live in New York!
