So basically I had a really disgusting nose and I decided that I wanted to get a nose job. I live in Sydney but I decided to get it done in Lebanon because apparently the doctors there are more experienced and the price is relatively cheaper.
I've hated my nose for as long as I can remember, it is a typical hooked nose with a droopy tip.
On the day of my operation I was pretty nervous but excited at the same time. The only thing I was really scared about was taking a blood test because I have an intense fear of needles lol. I think the operation went on for a duration of 1 hour and a half but it didn't even feel that long because I was put under general anaesthesia. When I woke up at first I felt a bit of pain but it went away after a while. The first week was pretty painless but the swelling was horrible during the first 3 days. My eyes were so swollen to the point where I couldn't even open them but after the third day the swelling started to go down. Overall this experience is very worth it and I didn't regret a single decision.

My doctor was a very honest and exceptional doctor. From the moment I first walked into the clinic he was very welcoming and polite. He knew what was wrong with my nose and what needed to be fixed. I recommend him to anyone wanting to undergo rhinoplasty, as his work is very natural and appealing.

Omg I love how natural it looks..like at the break of the nose (or where the forehead meets the nose) looks so good and natural. My cast Isn't off yet so that is something I am worried about, wow hope my nose looks as good as yours ! Congrats :)
August 4, 2014
Thank you so much!! It's still swollen so it's not the final result yet. And don't worry I'm sure your nose will turn out the way you want it to
August 4, 2014
Nice results! Did he by any chance reduce your nostrils? If so, did you have stitches?
August 4, 2014
