Rhinoplasty Experience with Dr. S - Chicago, IL

Hello everyone :) so I decided to post my story because i realized how helpful your stories truly are. I am 24 years old, and after extensive research i chose Dr. Shah to do my rhinoplasty. I had my first appointment in November and everything went smoothly. No long wait times and when i did meet him..he was very direct and kind. He showed me some before and after pics and made me feel comfortable. I have been self conscious of my nose and have been thinking about a rhinoplasty for a few years now. I have a second appointment with him in a few weeks so we can edit my morphs a bit. I will post again once the day gets closer :)

Soo i had the surgery and it went really well! I was really nervous until i saw him before and we went over the plan. I decided against taking the pain meds and i think it was for the best. I read a lot of reviews saying the pain meds cause some side effects like constipation and itchiness. The recovery isn't bad, as i think the worst part was the throat pain i had immediately after the operation. I have just been home eating ice cream and watching Netflix (so boring). I am getting the cast off in 3 days and i could not be more excited. I will post some pics once the cast is removed :)

So i got my cast was removed yesterday! I was nervous and excited. I almost fainted after getting the sutures out.. they hurt alot :(. I guess it common and they know what to do afterwards to help you. The reveal was what i thought it would be, shocking but an improvement. It is swollen in my bridge and my tip but i already like it, he did an amazing job! I am excited to see what it will be in a month from now.
