Hello All,
So the second procedure that I've been interested in is a Rhinoplasty. I've I been wanting this procedure for as long as I can remember. The best way to describe my nose is " WIDE"! I hate it! You will never catch me taking a dead on profile pic, I always have to turn my head some kind of way. This year I will be turning the big 30 so I decided to get my nose done (with the help of my boyfriend) for my Birthday/Christmas.
Last Friday, I had a Rhinoplasty consultation with Dr. Jarrah-Nejad also known as Dr. J. OMG, he was so amazing! He was very thorough, patient and kind. He even took a look at my butt for me. I explained I didn't really want to change the appearance of my nose too much (meaning I don't want it to look fake). I just don't want it to be sooo wide. He drew up a sketch showing my bone structure a lot more narrow and two small incisions on each side of my nasal to bring it in. The price was a little more than expected ($9,800), but I know he will do a great job. My Birthday is Dec. 11th and I wanted my nose done before then. The Office Manager Daria was great with fitting me into Dr. J's busy scheduled. My Surgery is now booked for Nov. 9th, I am super excited and I can't help but wait!! Stay tuned....

Nothing was done to your nasal area to give you a bridge? Like I had rib grafting

Yeah, it will look a little funny for a little while. For me, the swelling went down faster on one side than the other. I couldn't wait for it to even out. Lol

Hello All,

So I had my Rhinoplasty on Monday, 11/9. I've had little to no pain thus far. My body bruises very easily so I was expected a lot of bruising and swelling, but surprisingly I have little to none. So I guess I'm healing pretty well.

My follow appt was on Wed which was two days after my surgery. Dr. J cleaned my nose and removed the bottom dressing. I feel like I look like something out of a Halloween movie because my stitches are now exposed and I have dried up blood so it looks kinda crazy. Lol

My next appt is on Wednesday, 11/18 to remove the cast, splints and stitches. I can't wait to see what my nose is going to look like once all the dressings are removed. From the looks of it right now, I have a completely new nose and I like what I see so far. Photos are attached, I will keep you posted.

Your nose looks perfect. Did you have an open or closed rhinoplasty? I'm having a closed procedure at the end of the month.

Thank you! I had an open Rhino because he narrowed my nostrils. I think the close is the best. Because then you won't have any scars on the side! Good luck! How exciting! ;)

Thank you for your response! Do you have thick skin? I'm nervous about the swelling.

How does the closed rhino work? I had open where they cut the sides to bring mines in

I mean to bring my nostrils in.

The make two incisions in each nostril. Then take out each cartilage and make it smaller, place back inside and stitch them together to refine the tip. It's a less invasive approach. The actual word is endonasal plasty.

Close Rhino is when the doctor only makes an incision in the middle "nasal septum" this patient does not require the doctor to bring in the nostril for a narrow appearance.

Oh ok that's what I figured lol. I didn't hv a scar on the sides at all I was surprised
