Hi guys. I started classes and a new job so I've been super busy, but thought I would give you an update. My nose seems to have healed up nicely, even though I think it looks the same as before, and the swelling around my chin has gone down a lot. Overall, I think I look the same. I'm still thinking of getting a different chin implant. It looks the same as before. Just wider. I wanted a slimmer and delicate chin, not a square chin. Also, the projection isn't all that different. One of the biggest reasons why I wanted a chin implant was to help w my profile, but honestly, it doesn't look at that much different. I'm also going to have the lip filler dissolved from my lower lip, even though my doctor thinks it looks good. I think it looks funny and weird, especially with my non existing top lip, which is where the filler was initially supposed to go anyway. I feel that with my square chin and my bottom-heavy lip, my face looks wider than before no matter how many times I tell myself I look decent. But at least I'm not as swollen(ugly) as I was before and in better spirits!

I know me too! Thankfully the fillers aren't permanent and I can get them dissolved. I think he just put too much on my lower where it already was full but I usually only get on my top.

You had a great review. It's very helpful as I'm getting my nose done by him. Do you before and after pictures of your nose done by Dr. Papay? How long was recovery? I'm so afraid of the surgery. I heard it's painful. Please let me know tips and advice on your nose job with Dr. Papay. And wonderful after photos! Thanks :) very helpful

Hi! Thank you for your comment. My nose looks all better now. It was just swollen but like all his nurses said, he's a very very good doctor. I'll try to look for pics of my before and after. I'll try posting pics of my chin and nose later today hopefully!:). I actually think it was the least painful procedure ever. I would say my neck lift and nostril reduction hurt more than my nose job. And he did extensive work for my breathing too the first time around so don't worry. It's really not bad at all!:)

Okay, cool. Sorry, I am just seeing this for some reason. That is what I have heard too, but the last time I visited his office, his resident claimed she sent over the note for insurance and months later we found she never did. So, I havent been happy with that. Was the lady resident there when you had surgery? I am worried that she will want to work on me during surgery but I want him...not her. And, that is all wonderful to hear. thank you for returning a message, so nice! :)

So I'm back at work and people have told me I look different but can't tell what it is. I'm able to smile a little bit more, even though it hurts/feels tight on my nose. I would say the swelling is pretty much down but I'm not sure how I'm liking my new chin. I have a post op follow up w my doctor next week and plan on telling him how I feel. I feel like it could've been a bit slimmer and not as wide/round, which kind of gives me a jay Leno look. My nostrils are still uneven and when I smile my left nostril pulls and looks noticeably warped than my right. I've caught people looking at it. Smiling makes me look really weird and there is pulling coming from inside my nose that creates odd wrinkles that look out of place. Honestly, at this point I'm kind of regretting doing all this to my face. I think I got too ambitious and greedy. I keep reading that you can only remove/revise any surgeries after 6 months so I guess I'm stuck w this look till then.
It's not letting me post pics but I will as soon as I can!

I'm sorry to hear that you are disappointed. I feel ya on seeing jay leno when you look in the mirror. I think you look gorgeous even in your swollen/bruised pics so hopefully anything you are not liking right now will resolve itself in the coming weeks/months and sooner rather than later. Keep us posted!
PS. Going back to work totally sucks and is awkward. I had a few conversations where I just had to say "neck surgery!!" before they brought it up because of the faces people would be making.

Lol that's a good one! I told everyone I got my wisdom teeth removed but I don't think they're buying that. I was told everyone is talking and wondering if I had work done and what exactly I had done. And I can also tell everyone looks at me funny too. Oh well.
Thank you. I'm hoping I can get my nose fixed soon. I'm so disappointed at this point and scared of it getting messed up even more later. Considering going to a different Doctor perhaps? Someone who is an expert at revisions, for sure

I'm sorry you're feeling disappointed. I've had previous surgeries in the past, tummy tuck n breast lift with implants. Two separate occasions. The first few months are the worse. You look different every week. I was obsessed taking pics every week and comparing. I eventually gave up and got depressed. I hated the fact that the doctor kept telling me it's a process. Also other women on a website similar to this one.
I'm glad they were right. Some days you have more swelling than others. Causing you to look different. Sodium and caffeine are your enemies right now. Stay away! No pre packaged foods. At least for now. I'm going to have my surgery in 2 weeks and I'm terrified of the healing process. But I know it will get better. Best wishes Hope you get better very soon.

Thank you so much for your post! It is giving me hope to keep my head up and not get so down just say and to stay patient. The swelling has gone down some and it's starting to look better--even my nose! I saw my doctor for my follow up and he said it's looking amazing for not even 1 month post op and our next follow up is in 2 weeks. Thank you again for your kind words:)
