I have considered rhinoplasty since 2007, and I am finally getting around to it. I am super excited about the surgery, and I look forward to sharing my experience with everyone. There are some males out there who have posted, but not many. I look forward to adding to the realself community.

I have been reading a lot of posts and experiences provided through this site, and they have all given me direct insight that I may not have gotten elsewhere. So I would like to thank all of your for contributing in one way or another to this website. The doctor I have chose is Dr. Jonathan Kulbersh. I had a couple other consultations over the years, but the money wasn't right at the time and I did not feel super comfortable leaving the offices. After meeting Dr. Kulbersh I knew that I wanted him to complete the procedure. I am very optimistic about the operation, and I will post before and after pictures like everyone else has.

So far I have picked up some arnica cream and the pain pills I may or may not need after surgery. I still have a list of things to get, so if anyone would like to make any specific suggestions that would be great! Thanks for reading, and I look forward to sharing my experience.

So I have five days until surgery! I have been nervous on and off, but the closer I get the more confident I seem to be about everything. We will see how much this changes the night before surgery. The thought of the surgery has not bothered me one bit yet, so I hope to remain this optimistic and ready all the way through! I have collected all of my materials except for a travelers pillow. Quick side note: I am using an ointment pre-surgery called Bactroban Nasal. I didn't see where anyone else posted about using this. It is used to help prevent infection I believe, and it is a gel-like substance that is massaged into the nasal passage ways. Pics will definitely be coming soon! I will probably update the night before, and then I will update the day of or the day after surgery.

Thanks for starting your story! I'm really looking forward to following it. You're right, we don't get nearly as many male perspectives on rhinoplasty, so it will be fantastic to have that.

Here's a list of rhino recovery supplies you might need, if you don't have them already.

Please keep us posted!

Haha I've found that Guys rarely get comments on here, but Im getting mine done in june. I think the changes you want would be near impossible to mess up, they just shave the hump right? Best of luck man.

That is true. Probably because there are mostly ladies on the site. Yeah all I am asking for is the hump taken down, but there is a little more to it than that. Spreader grafts are having to be used on my nose as well from the septum. I am not having any tip work done, though. Hopefully it goes smoothly! Thank a lot, and good luck to you as well.
