Here are a few pics. I need to take a better current front shot. My nose is less swollen in the morning. It still feels rubbery and I am sure it is still a bit swollen. I am three and a half months post-op now.

I see a huge change for the better. Your nose looks perfect!
Thanks for taking the time to write a review and share your experience. I appreciate you documenting your post op results/progression so others have an idea of what to expect and your experience. I am so glad to have been a small part of the transformation you considered for over 20 years.
Really good improvement. I'm impressed

I hesitated and thought about rhinoplasty for about 20 years. I have always hated my nose which I felt was too round for my strong jaw and cheekbones. It also hung a bit low and had a bump from when I was hit with a baseball pop fly. I'm a girl by the way.

I am feeling very good, am in bed, and do notice my nose is shorter. It's black and blue a bit from what I can see around the bandages and splint. I'm feeling really well and will post some pictures soon.

After 20 years of waiting, I hope it turns out beautifully! Let us know. :)
My nose was sharp and pointy and became bulbous and rounded after surgery. Please keep us updated and better luck!
Good luck!
Good luck I waited 20 years + and finally had it done in nov 09... Wishin you the best
I just realized I have no idea how to post a picture or two to this site! If someone can tell me I will upload a couple of pics. It's been over three months now. I have to say I like the way I look so much better now. I used to look in the mirror and only see my nose and think about how much I hated it. Now, although my nose is not perfect, I like the way I look. I am still a bit swollen and my nose feels like rubber on the end. Very weird feeling. Overall, very happy I went ahead with the surgery. It was so scary and expensive, but worth it. I felt embarrassed talking to my husband about it too. He didn't understand my desire to make a change like this. Still claims he doesn't see a difference!
