I agree with the last reviewer...it's not how much money you spend...you are stupid for paying 15k for your nose. It's all about research, reviews, and pics of the doc's work not about the money spent. I paid 6800 for my nose and absolutely LOVE it. So people, don't think just because you pay 15k for a nose that you will get a perfect one...complete BS. Just do your research!!
Hi there just wanted to let you know that i was in the same situation as you. I had my open rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago today and my old nose only needed minor surgery done as well. I just needed a little bit of a bridge on the very top and wanted to bring in the sides very slightly as well as the doc suggesting to refine the tip a little. I already had a very straight bridge so no correction was needed there.
Anyways, when i got my splint off i was horrified to see a pig/alien like nose from the front on view, but the side profile looked alright just very pushed up in the air. It also looked very crooked to one side and one nostil was bigger and almost deformed looking. When i took a look at your pic...that's pretty much exactly what my nose looked like between 6-10 days post op! but as the days have gone by(now at day 14)my nose has dropped significantly. I no longer see my nostrils up like the pig/alien last week and the swelling on the tip has gone down so much too.
So be patient....the tip will come down, some people just take alot longer. I can tell by your picture that you're nose will look great!
