I absolutely love my result. The swelling is pretty non-existent at this point and I love the shape it took. It's still a bit up-turned, but I can definitely live with it. I feel like I have a PERFECT nose and am so happy about it. :)

6 month update - struggling with swelling

Hey guys,

Thought it was time to give an update as I'm about to hit the 6 month mark!

I've been struggling lately with the swelling in my nose. It's been bad to the point (for about a month or longer) that it's difficult for me to look in the mirror or take a selfie without getting anxious about it.

I keep trying to tell myself that it is just swelling and that it will go down. Although at the 6 month mark, it's really worrying me. I have an appointment to follow up with Dr Motykie in a few weeks and am hoping to maybe get a shot that will help reduce the swelling and have a more defined nose.

Really, I think the issue is the roundness of the tip and a kind of triangular appearance to the bridge.

Today I took some arnica and was having a reasonably "good nose day" so thought I would take some pictures. I guess if I can experience enough changes to have a good nose day, that must mean I am not seeing the final result yet..

I think you're adorable . I really like your nose . I hope the swelling issue gets better soon. It will! When you have grafts added it delays swelling . Within the next couple of months it should get much much better
