Trying to run away from a bad childhood, I made the decision to have rhinoplasty at the age of 18 in Sunrise (Florida). At the age of 27 I decided to give it another try in Colombia after an unsuccessful surgery in 2007. Biggest mistake, as this has left me botched. I wanted to have a smaller nose, the surgen did alarplasty but left the scars in the wrong place. Now they are very visible and have shatter my confidence. Can this be fixed? Will the third time be The charmed?
