Rhinoplasty Review - Adelaide, Australia
UPDATED FROM adastra90

2 months later..
Hey everyone! Sorry it's been so long since I've done an update - It's been been a busy couple of months since my surgery!
So here's where I'm at if your curious..
It's been roughly 2 months now since I had my nose done and I couldn't be happier with the result! My nose is structurally and aesthetically perfect now, it looks very natural and compliments the rest of my face beautifully. I can feel that the tip of my nose is still swollen which may take a few more months to subside but over all its feeling great, i'm actually surprised at how quickly it's healed. I'll include a photo so you can see how it looks. As the swelling decreases I can see more and more definition in the tip of my nose, it's very exciting! If you live in Adelaide and are contemplating this procedure I do recommend a consultation with Dr Peter Sylaidis at APSA - he is extremely professional and has a very high standard of work.

Cast came off today!!
Just got my cast off - and i absolutely loveeee my new nose!! It's still very swollen and Dr. Sylaidis said that I would see changes in the shape of the nose over the next couple of weeks / months as the swelling reduces. I can see that the tip and bridge are very swollen, but i am MEGA excited about the shape i can see underneath and how it has accentuated my eyes and lips :)
My next follow up appt is in 3 months time, and by then I should have a better idea of my end result. I will keep posting pics here on real self so you all can see the changes in shape as the swelling goes down.
any questions you have - feel free to leave me a comment

Wow your nose looks so good already, can't wait to see it a few weeks from now! You are so lucky that you live in Adelaide, I've heard a lot of good things about the plastic surgeons that do rhinoplasty there. I'm in Brisbane and hope I can get some good results too :)

Thank you, that's really nice of you! Are there many reviews here on realself.com for surgeons in Brizzy? I found reading other adelaide peoples reviews for rhino and seeing their results really helped me feel confidant in choosing my doctor. I hope you find someone really good, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions about rhinoplasty :) all the best

Your nose is very beautiful! Congrats. Can't wait until my revision on March 25.

Hey zooster! Thanks very much :) I just checked out your profile - I have to say I really like your nose the way it is now, to me it looks great. I can see the example pics of what your wanting your final result to be and i'm sure what your wanting will be achievable for you! :) Best of luck in your revision, how exciting for you!! Will stay tuned for your results :D

Thank you so very much. Nice of you to say that but my nose is horrible looking and very asymmetric and huge for my face. I hope and pray that I get great outcome this time around. Thanks again.

wow I got my surgery done using the same practice as you! Different surgeon with same practice! small world :-) I hope your swelling goes down quicker than mine so you can see your real nose :-)

Hey wow! Small world indeed! Thank you, I absolutely love your results - you look stunning. I can see your nose is much more refined now and really looks beautiful. Don't be disheartened, your only 1 month in, from what i can see of your pics i'd say the increase in physical activity has lead to a bit of swelling. Before i had surgery i was researching like a mad woman how people went in recovery - and what the swelling time line was like (like the one you've inclueded in your pics.) I know you'd know this, but the 1 month result is soo different to the way your nose will look and sit at 3 months, 6 months etc. Keep your head held high - you look beautiful and i'm sure that you will end up with the result that you desire.
i'll stay tuned on your progress too :) all the best hun

Thanks, yes you're right, I can't wait for 6 months to be up so I've got more of an idea as to what it will look like. I'm about to update now :-) I'm glad you're so happy with it all, it's amazing the change a nicer nose can make to your overall appearance and confidence hey

OMG another one and here in Adelaide, i have just posted on adastra90's wall and then saw your comment, i am pencilled in for 29th April, and am petrified....Love hearing success stories from people going to the same practice. Which surgeon did you have, i am seeing Dr Tim Edwards. Would love to see your pics if that's ok?
March 10, 2014
Wow! You're so lucky to be finding some adelaide people before your surgery! I only found one when I was searching before my surgery and it was real old and she obviously didn't use RS anymore as she never replied to me :-( I have a review so you are welcome to view my photos there :-)

Hi again, i did reply to your private message but am a bit comp. eliterate and not sure i replied back to you or Realself? Anyway thanks, you look amazing!! if my nose can look anything like yours i will be in heaven :) I am unable to find any reviews on my surgeon but once again this can be due to poor comp. skills? I am going for a second consult next week..to make sure we are both on the same page, will keep in touch.

Very beautiful nose! Congratulations :) but i think your nose wasnt that difficult to begin with, your tip, the most difficult part to fix, was already pretty okay!
