Just came back from the doctors this past weekend and all is well!! Still some swelling in the tip and in the bridge, but it doesn't bother me a bit so the rest of the healing process won't bother me at all. I'm posting pictures from my visit. From certain angles, it doesn't look any different than month 1, for the most part at least, but from the front you can see how much more defined it is.

2 1/2 months (or something like that) in and I couldn't be happier!!! The swelling is going down bit by bit and I absolutely love what I see. It is still a little tender when I tough the bridge and the tip is still numb, but it is so much better than it was a few weeks ago.
I meet with my doctor at the end of the month, which is a little after the 3 month mark. I have to fly to NY from NC, so it kind of makes it more difficult to meet at the 3 month mark.
I have absolutely no regrets about getting this done. I love it so much. My confidence is through the roof and I am so so so happy that I did it before I started my job. It had done wonders with my self image. Anyone having doubts about whether or not its worth it..just do it!! Find a great doctor with a great reputation and just do it! Don't let fear hold you back from having the happiness you've only dreamed of.
I'll be sure to update after my doctor's appointment. Best of luck to everyone as they start/continue their journeys!

You look great! I'm glad you have a lot more confidence now. That's something I really hope to get from this..you are so pretty & you were before surgery, but I'm glad you went through with it despite people telling you not to. You can tell just by reading your post that you're happier now & I'm sure that helped a lot of people with making the decision. I know it helped me!!

1 month post op.
Wow! I can't believe how fast time flies. I had my one month post op visit with my doctor yesterday and had my microdermabrasion session as well, which felt great! I definitely think I'll be scheduling one each time I go for a check up because it really does make your skin feel amazing.
He said that about 85% of my swelling is down and that the rest will drop over the course of a year. He said the profile will pretty much stay the same, but that the tip of my nose will become much more defined and that the swelling in the bridge will come down as well. It doesn't look nearly as bad in person, but on pictures the swelling is way more pronounced. I'll post pictures of the front anyway, just so people can see how it looks one month out in pictures. My face looks red and gross because it was right after the microdermabrasion. There is also a little uneven swelling on the bridge because of the facial. That little bump usually isn't there.
All in all, I am beyond happy. I absolutely love it. Will post more pictures after my next appointment in 2 months!

The pictures are gorgeous! With already being a knockout before, now it's just icing on the cake! This is definitely a true success story...I like how he didn't bring up your tip..it suits your face well.
