Ready for Revision Rhinoplasty with Radiated Rib - Baltimore, MD

I've had rhinoplasty back in 2001 but due to the lack of experience with african noses, my surgeon recommended a one size fits all silicone implant which I rejected, and ended up with just my bridge being reshaped and the tip was left undone. I figured maybe that could work and was somewhat satisfied with the results, but about 4 years ago I noticed how bulbous my tip became over the years and a deformity started to appear on the right side of my tip. It was time to consider a revision but since it's almost impossible to find a surgeon who specializes in african rhinoplasty in Canada I decided to look in the US, and after some thorough research my choice fell on Dr. Boahene in Baltimore. So I'm one day pre-op and I will update as I go along.

The surgery experience was great with all the staff at the surgery center. Their bedside manner is remarkable. I'm feeling good already a few hours after leaving the clinic. Probably won't be using those pain killers I purchased. We'll see in the following days. Ohh, and I also had some fat transfered to my cheeks.

My main concern at this point is the swelling on my cheeks. Apparently fat transfer swelling won't go down before 3 months.
