Asked By:salvamea in Los Angeles, CA

it's 10 months post op: - bridge of my nose looks bigger/wider than my original pre-op nose - you barely see any difference in the tip and nostrils - columella scar is clearly visible I asked for a small nose (front view). attached is the before and after picture. please be honest. did the doctor do a good job? i'm only interested in the front view. i hate the way it looks (gigantic and unrefined). thank you.
