I had a rhinoplasty and septoplasty to correct both. It turned out awful my nose is way too wide and it has no definition. My breathing is still bad. My tip is also flatter. My nose used to be so much prettier it was just crooked and then my doctor tried to fix that by reducing the hump. Now it's too wide for my face and it doesn't harmonize with my eyes. It has an open roof and it collapses when I breathe in. I am so sad about it because I feel like I used to be so attractive before. I am only 18-years old.
