Most of my life i have been self conscious about...

rhinonose
WORTH IT$9,000
Most of my life i have been self conscious about my nose. It was quite hooked and big at the tip. As I got older I used fillers to straighten but I always wanted to have rhinoplasty!!I was always so unsure about surgeons and didn't personally know any one who had rhinoplasty in australia and i was way to worried to just go overseas for someone to do it for half the price and send me on my way. I googled surgeons day in day out but soon as I saw dr shahidis work I was convinced! I still had to do some research ovcourse and didn't find much until I stumbled across this site and found a girl who also had her nose done with him and that's all I needed to finally convince me he was the one I was going to have my rhinoplasty with!! :) So the day came for my consultation day, the ladies at reception were really nice and so was dr shahidi! He took some photos examined my nose and showed me a computer altered version of what he wants to do. It looked good :) honestly I just left everything up to him. I was considering
getting my nostrils altered as well which he did say they were a little big, the width of them is ment to be lined up with the middle of my eyes and that was going to cost an extra $1000 but he basically said it will still look good if I dont ttouch them and it wont look out of proportion at all, so he could have made an extra $1000 easy by just saying I needed it done but he didnt. I highly recommend him, his a surgeon you can trust and these days that's hard to find. When you trust some one who is altering your face its quite comforting. My advice to any one if your unsure don't do it!!! Be patient and find some one who you are comfortable with. The day came of surgery I was having it done atthe nnorth shore specialist day hospital. The nurses were really nice and comforting. Before I knew it I was in and out!! I wasn't in any pain!! I didn't go threw any pain it was just uncomfortable for the first week the 5th day I was crying lol it was itchy and i couldnt scratch so I just took pain killers to get my mind off it haha but that's about it no pain just uncomfort and itchy. My swelling and brushing was a little bad no pain though. I use to have fillers in my nose to straighten it so there was still some in there so he had to scrape that out that's why my bruising was bad. The whole procedure was done through incisions in my nostrils so I have no scar so basically two weeks post op and my nose looks like it hasn't been touched but is perfect!!!!

Nice results! Thank you so much for sharing.

Do you have pre-op photos as well so we can witness the transformation?

Amazing! I have a consult with him in a few weeks. I have the exact same original nose as you. Was your price $9000 excluding hospital and anaesthesia? I don't have private health cover.. do you think I'd be paying more than that?

I hated my nose before!

As you can see my nose before just had to go! And as much as I grew to accept my nose and adapt with it, when the day came to change it I had no doubts about my surgery or my surgeon :) If you feel it will improve your look but are still comfortable in ur skin than ur ready to make a big decision. Just a little advice.

Hi, nice nose. How much was the full cost with hospital & anaesthesia?
August 6, 2013
Hi hun sorry I wrote the comment in the wrong spot. Its above ur comment.
August 6, 2013
Thanks! So hospital cost was 2,500 and anesthesia was 1,300. I got like 140 back from medic are for the anesthesia and for the surgeons cost I got around 1,200 back. If ur under a private cover they would pay for the day surgery. It was quite pricey all up but honestly money well spent.
