I'm getting my nose done in a week for both functional & cosmetic purposes. I feel so nervous! Now I'm rethinking all of it even tho I just made the payment today. What do u think of the doctor's image of how he plans to preform the rhinoplasty? I definitely want my hump smoothed out but I'm worried changing the tip will reuin how my nose looks from the front (which I actually like, esp the narrowness). There are 3 images: one of how my nose is now, the image the dr came up with & 3 the image I came up with where I left my tip as is. Which is better? 2 or 3?? Please help me I'm so confused & nervous!

Hi there - there are very subtle differences between the 2 images, but I prefer your doctor's image - the slope is just a teeny bit better. If this is what he is aiming for, I think you will have a lovely result. Good luck!

Neither-I think you need more tip projection

Hi, I really like the doctors image(s). They suit your face and are in proportion. If the Dr can do that it will be a fabulous result. Good luck

doctors!

The doctor's image is more feminine. Your image holds more on your ethnic roots, still lovely.

The Dr's image. The tip is too far down in your image. Maybellineo

The doctor gave me two choices for a side profile view of my nose. He asked me if I wanted it without a slope (which looked more natural and just took away the slight bump I had) or with a slope. I told him without a slope because I wanted it to look natural but after much consideration, I told him last minute that I wanted it with a slope. I am glad I did because remember that your nose is not going to look exactly like the digital image. My nose from the side right now is in between the "natural" non-sloped nose and the sloped one.

No offense, but I think that the doctor's image looks the best. Good luck.

I'm glad you're keeping your front view in mind. Some people forget how important that is and focus only on the profile. Make sure you and your doctor are very much on the same page when you go into this. Here's a list of recovery supplies you mind find handy. Good luck and please keep us posted!
