Just over one year post-op
WORTH IT$13,000
A quick picture to show you my one year post op results. I know it's only one image of my profile but I have been super busy and haven't had time to take more pictures! Surgery with Dr Shahidi was the best decision I ever made! It's amazing how much your nose continues to change! Even after a year I still see improvements!

7 Months Post Op
Just updating on my results thus far! I have been so amazed by how my nose continues to settle!
A little tip I found worked well for me: as I'm still taping my nose, I found that applying the tape horizontally across the bottom half of my nose -mostly on my tip - has made the swelling come down a lot more than taping my whole nose down. It's funny but I feel like it works!
Some photos to see my results so far! Thank you Dr S!

Approximately 4 Months Post-Op
Hi all!
I hope everyone has been well! I have uploaded some photos taken around 4 months post-op! I have been healing well, swelling keeps coming downthough my tip still is quite firm, so I will confirm with Dr S at the end of the month when I have my next visit, if this is indeed still swelling. I am so happy with my results this far! I feel amazing! I am still taping every night and applying scar cream. If you have any questions let me know :)

Your looking amazing!!!
I feel like mine is still long, and projected at 3 months post. Not sure if dr shortened it enough ....
Did you find the projection change much from three to four months??

Thank you so much! I am feeling fantastic! My projection has changed ever so slightly but what I found was that it was mostly My swelling that made my nose stick out a little more. But as time passes it does appear to shorten :) time will heal all! Stay positive :)

You look great! Can't wait to see your nose around the one year mark! Did you ask for a straight profile? Or do he recommend it?

Hi Roselie,
Thank you for your words :) I can't wait too! I see it settle more and more every few weeks, I had my last appointment the 31st of March and Dr S let me know there was still swelling so it should continue to settle! I wanted a straight profile but he also recommended it for the following reasons: the tip projection on a sloped nose would change my appearance from the front, being a taller girl it also meant that people would likely be looking up into my nostrils, and with my Ethnicity he felt that it would appear more natural and fitting :) so it was a bit of both!

It looks so beautiful? Can you breathe well? Well, he did a very natural look for you just beautiful .. Not overdone just perfect! I am considering him but I want an upturned look... Do you think it's possible if I ask him? Also how's your aftercare ? Sorry for all the questions lol :))

Thank you very much :) you can ask Dr S to do whatever you like - but he will give you honest advice about what he thinks which I think is so important and valuable! My breathing is wonderful now! I'm very happy! Goodluck on your journey!
