16 months post-op

30 Mar 2014

My nose has not fluctuated in swelling lately. It is not swollen when I wake up anymore. Therefore, I know my nose is still changing which is awesome. I don't know if time has caused this or Dr. Shah gave me the strongest Kenallog injection there is, for the first time, about ~1 month ago. Also, my nose is looking more narrow, not as wide, as before so I think the residual swelling is FINALLY dissipating nicely. The tip is still kinda hard but that improves ever so slowly.

I'll post more pics soon. Ultimately I am very pleased with my nose. Here are the few complaints I still have 14 mo post-op:
1. My nose STILL fluctuates in swelling- for example, if I am in warmer weather, lay down, or for other mysterious reasons it will swell up. When it swells, it doesn't look pretty.
2. My nose used to be thin and defined when looking at it face-on, however now it is wider and I rather it still be thin/narrow, but at this point I don't think that will happen.
