How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

My nose : The good, the bad and the ugly
So it's been more than a month already and besides the tip of my nose which still feels a bit numb, I feel like I'm more or less healed. So as for my nose, there are some positives and some negatives.
The positives: The profile looks better and my botched nostril looks slightly better. My nostrils are nowhere near symmetrical but all I really wanted was for the right nostril to look more rounded and natural. The profile has got more of a curve to it which I like. I still feel like my nose looks overprotected from certain angles but overall, I'm not too worried about it and it's probably just the way the phone camera distorts it as from afar it looks small.
The negatives: My nose looks very crooked from the front. Granted that it was a bit crooked to start with, I feel like it looks worse now. Dr. Charbel told me that he'll be able to fix this easily after a few months but it is causing me to feel really self-conscious and unhappy. :( I'm trying to stay positive though and stay focused on the fact that in a few months my nose will be straighter. I don't even feel confident sharing front-on photos at this point.
That's about it for the update.

1 month!
So yesterday 1 month has passed already. I can't believe how time flies.
I'm feeling more or less back to normal and I decided to start exercising again. I'm also no longer worried about bumping my nose and damaging it. That's definitely a relief.
My nose still feels very tender, especially on the inside and the tip is still hard. I still feel a tad bit congested as I feel like I haven't been cleaning my nose as much as I should. I'm scared to blow it as well.
The unevenness in the bridge is still present so I guess only time will tell if that will go away or not.
