Ive been devastated about this and have developed a mild case of body dysmorphia because of it. 10 months ago I had a septorhinoasty. I just wanted to correct my breathing through a septoplasty but the surgeon suggested we might as well remove the hump and I didnt think much of it. Ive been bothered by this result everyday since Ive looked in the mirror, and wanted second opinions as to what went wrong. My nose and tip is way less defined and drifts.
Over 14 months since I had rhinoplasty/septoplasty. I think I started to see this weird mark on my nose around the 8 or 9 month mark but not sure if that was just when I started noticing it. Looks bad in some lighting whereas not very noticeable in others but it's all I focus in on now every time I look in the mirror :/ Dr recommended laser treatments and I've had 1 so far but didn't seem effective. Have more scheduled but are there other options? What is this?
Im 5 months post op and I dont seem to have seen much difference in my nose since the operation. My swelling doesnt seem to be subsiding. I know it takes roughly about a year to see final results but I dont seem to see any change in my nose. Ive had rhino and septoplasty.
4 spots treated on the face. Tip of nose is 3 times as big and color is very visable after cauterization. After the scabs healed skin was bright pink about a week later those areas turned bright red where I can't even conceal these areas anymore. Tried ipl. Color improved at 3 weeks bright red again. Tip of nose no improvement.
I have malar mounds/borderline bags. I have allergies (treated with Claritin, Singulair, and Flonase and Azelastine 2x a day). I am on month five of allergy drops (sublingual method). No improvement. I was also diagnosed with a deviated septum and was told surgery would be the next step if mouth breathing didn't improve on drops. Could this surgery also help my malar mounds/bags? Any other options?
It is 3 weeks after and my rhinoplsty and my nose looks the same. Aparently this is what some patient say...I was told. In profile my bump has gone. I was also told it will keep refining up to 3 months but I am not confident. The tip still looks very large and only slightly smaller like not enough cartilage was taken out. In all honesty how much can a closed nose job change the shape of my nose? How much have you seen noses refine after closed surgery to what will be?
