He read my mind! - Carmel Valley, CA

It has now been over a year since having my surgery and I am beyond happy with the results! I honestly feel like this has been my nose my whole life and I no longer constantly check myself from the side. I used to be SO self-conscious of people seeing my profile and now I never even think about it. I have also lost weight and am simply happy.
If you are reading this and thinking about having this operation done, do it. Find the best doctor you can and just go for it. I promise you will love the results if the doctor is as good as Dr. Karam.

I am already two weeks post op! My nose is still pretty swollen and maybe even bigger than when I first had the cast off but I am still so so happy with it! I can feel the swelling get worse throughout the day but I'd say the worst part is the stitches. They still haven't all fallen out and some are right where you can see them so I look like I have a booger! I even tried pulling and that was a huge mistake haha. I blew my nose yesterday and can now also breath sooo much better!

I got my cast off! I seriously thought I was going to puke on the drive there because I was so nervous. I had my son with me so that made things a little better. The woman slowly pried it off which was a little uncomfortable but not at all painful and explained how swollen everything was and that it would go down. Both her and the other receptionist who have helped me had their noses done by my doctor and they look FANTASTIC so that has kept me reassured this whole time also. I do want to warn others that after the cast came off I got a terrible headache for about an hour and didnt have my tylenol on me so be prepared!
But anyways I love my profile!!! It's still super swollen but even so it is such an improvement from what I had. From the front is a little embarrassing because it seriously does look like a sausage. Haha I dont know how often Ill be going out this weekend, but I know it will go down. Overall I couldnt be happier with my decision to do this. This is the best birthday present I could have ever given myself.
