I had sinus surgery including a septoplasty, turbinate reduction and removal of polyps from sinuses. My nose after the surgery is horrible looking. It looks wide, flat and is shorter. I even have a bump on my profile now. I am very upset about how I look. I never wanted a nose job, but now I do just to get back my original nose. I often cry about how I look. What did the surgeon do to me? And how do I get my nose back?
