I've wanted rhinoplasty since high school. Now,...
I've wanted rhinoplasty since high school. Now, at 31, I'm finally taking the plunge!
5 years ago I got my breast augmentation and couldn't be happier with my choice to do so and I'm really praying I feel the same way after this procedure. This is absolutely be the last surgical procedure I have none until I'm 60 lol.
There is so much stigma in the black community about rhinoplasty. People think that you wanna be white, that you don't love yourself, that you're gonna look like Michael Jackson. I can personally say those things are not true about me. I have a solid self esteem! I think I'm pretty darn cute to be honest haha. I just would love a more refined, smaller nose to bring out the other features in my face. I also have horrid allergies and breathing problems due to a deviated septum and a cyst in my nose, so getting those things fixed will be nice!
I have been searching for the right doctor for years for this procedure. I live in Austin, Tx right now and never even considered Texas as an option for a nose job. It was either New York or Beverly Hills. I wanted the best of the best. And I'll admit, being a native So Cal girl, maybe I'm a little biased in thinking that the best of the best live in only 2 cities in the entire United States, lol.
In the end, I was searching "African American rhinoplasty" for the gibillionth time, and there he was...his beautiful work, nose after nose, front view after front view, I knew I had found my doctor...Dr. Ghavami!
It took me a month of stalking is Instagram and Facebook to finally pick up the phone and schedule a $350 skype interview. And boy oh boy is his office busy! I was on hold 20 minutes before someone was able to schedule me. It was a Friday, and he's in Beverly Hills, so whatcha gonna do? Wait! Lol.
I set up the skype interview in October and I was super nervous! I had a list of questions to ask but once Dr. Ghavami came on the screen but literally drew a blank even with the questions right in front of me lol. In the end he went over what I wanted and I felt he was a true artist, very confident in his work, and he out me at ease. By the end of it I knew I needed to put my deposit down for $2000 and secure my date!
Jan 8 is literally around the corner! I'm so nervous. I know I don't have a bad nose. So if I'm unhappy with the results I'll never hear the end of it. I can just hear my mom now, "your nose was fine. Now look at all this you went through and you're still not happy." Lol. Nope! I ain't even trying to hear it! This has to go right, and the FIRST time!

Surgery is in 5 days!
Well today is my birthday I am officially 31! I am officially in California. I'm super excited and nervous at the same time. My mom and dad are being extremely supportive. I am so pleasantly surprised. I kinda just showed up in California without warning and sprung it on them that I was getting the surgery next week, lol. My mom is happy to be with me during and after my surgery and I know that it's for the best. No one can care for you after surgery like your mother. I plan on drinking a ton of water, and eating healthy in these days leading up to my surgery. Time is flying! My pre-op is Tuesday!
Pre-op tomorrow!
My pre-op is tomorrow! I'm about to go pick up photos I'm getting printed at Walgreens to show Dr. Ghavami tomorrow so we can be on the same page. I played with the facelift app on my phone for fun but I still want more dramatic results that the app provides. I want to narrow my bridge, take out the flare of my nostrils and I also want tip work. I have faith I can get the results I want. I'm so excited! Watch out Beyoncé, if I could sing I'd be coming for you hahahaha
Provider Review
Dr. Ghavami is a very talented Beverly Hills doctor. He is very confident in his work and I believe he is one of the best in the field. I love my nose and believe it is an amazing natural result. I was recommended at chin implant by Dr. Ghavami two days prior to surgery and it was not a good result. I had to have the implant removed and I never needed it in the first place. I don't recommend adding on last minute surgeries that have never been discussed and wish it wasn't pushed onto me. But overall like I said I'm satisfied and would highly recommend this doctor for rhinoplasty surgery. Have realistic expectations and I believe he will supersede them.
