I have been reviewing, researching and obsessively looking at before and after photos for a while now. My New Years resolution was to finally make this my year and spend time and money on myself!
I am taking the plunge and after careful eveluation I have booked a Consult with Dr Shahidi (Sydney Plastic Surgeon) for March 22nd 2016.
Initial Consult has cost $250 plus flights and accommodation as I live in Brisbane.
Will post how I go with my consult afterwards xx

Before Picture
So I thought I would upload a before picture so people can see what I hate about my nose...
My main problem is the huge bulbous tip (my husband calls it his button nose) ha-ha. It is also slightly crooked and I have breathing problems and not sure if the Dr can fix this but I only sometimes (very rarely) have a sense of smell. It's strange it comes and goes.
Hoping to slim down my tip and add a curve to my bridge.

Hi! Sorry, I just seen this! Good he explained that I had quite a crooked nose, and after putting the camera up my nostrils to look at my Septum he sent me for a CT Scan as it was quite bad and he couldnt see in depth what was wrong. I am still awaiting my results, BUT.... I have booked my Surgery for Septo/Rhinplasty for July 11th 2016 :) Ill post my computer generated picks also!

Hey! I updated my review yesterday with all details Has it not come up ? I have been advised i need septoplasty, and turbinectomy to fix the inside of my nose and of course rhinoplasty to fix the outside look :) there is also a really strong instagram community for rhinoplasty too btw :)

I have been looking through a million reviews, blogs, instagram bloggers, spoke to my GP (whose husband is a plastic Surgeon) (does not specialise in Rhinoplasts though), and I just always kept being drawn to Dr SHahidi's work, his previous patients before and afters are amazing and they always spoke so highly of his team and himself. I had him on my shortlist with two other surgeons and then when speaking to my best friend about it she was like 'omg he did my friend bla bla's, Rhinoplasty' and so I spoke to her and it kind of cemented my decision. I wanted a surgeon who particularly specialised in Rhinplasty as well and being the centre of my face I was not concerned about expense as I want Quality work (im am far from rich or anything) I just wanted the best surgeon for the job and in my eyes that was Dr Shahidi. I am Flying from Brisbane to Stay in Sydney for 11 days when I get my surgery :)
