I'm planning on getting veneers and rhinoplasty done. I'm traveling overseas to get this done and I'll be by myself. Since I'm by myself I don't want to stay longer than 8 days in a foreign country. I was told it would take 1-3 visits and a total of 5-7 days for my veneers. For my rhinoplasty I was told that after 7 days I will have my stitches removed.
