Appearance

The appointment has been brought forward to October 2017. That is a good thing.
The condition of the nose is this:
-From the side it looks good.
-From the front it looks alright unless I tilt my head up. The issue is the interior roof of the nostril is visible and looks like a swelling. At first I ignored it, now I would like some symmetry.
-Surgeon proposes the inserting cartilage from the ear to resolve the issue. That option is not that appealing as it would leave a small scar on the back of the ear... Decisions, decisions.
- Despite the issues, peoples reaction to the nose and my appearance is much better than with my old nose. Especially with women, I am far more in demand.

Further appointment

Contacted clinic re my concerns for above and told the next appointment with the doctor is in November 2017.

May 2017 Update

It is now three year since I had the initial rhinoplasty. I had to have two revision procedures.

Overall the procedures have not resulted in exceptional results:

- The nose is still wide.
- Nostrils are asymmetrical.
-The upper roof of one of the nostrils appears to be sagging. The Dr has recommended another another revision to correct it..
- Photographs of the nose look bad. I can't even take a decent photo for a Tinder photo anymore!

I have put off taking a decision about whether to have the revision as the previous revisions just seemed to make things worse!

From time to time I am experiencing shooting pains in the nose. I will speaking to the doctor about this.
