WORTH IT$15
Night before the surgery and quit excited! Can not believe that after 20 years I'm about to get my nose done the way I was hoping for with my first rhinoplasty. Hope the long wait will be worth it. Not sure if I will be able to sleep tonight. Very nervous about how my children(2 & 5 years) will react when they will see me after the surgery.

Already loving my new nose!
Surgery went well! Waking up was quit hard and felt nauseous. It took a while for the medication to kick in before my stomach was not upset anymore. After going back to hotel slept for 2 hours and felt only discomfort but for sure no pain. While waking up felt that my ear was bleeding(ear cartilage grafts) but it was nothing serious just a few drops. Did not feel like I wanted to eat but luckily I took some soup with me from home. Soup and a cracker did my stomach well and I begin to feel but better. Although I was not in pain still took my pain medication just in case that it would start and then it would take a long time before pain would go down. Arnica and Bromelain seems to help. Slept well but was awake every hour to drink some water. Though i'm bruised and nose is swollen I can see that Dr. Cochran managed to get the results as discussed during the consultation. He is absolutely amazing so happy with my decision for choosing him to do the revision.

Hi.... Thank you for the pics. You're very beautiful! I can't wait to see the final result. I'm planning on having revision after 14 years, but I think I have to wait until summer. :(
Best Wishes!!!

Oh that is so sweet of you thank you ☺️! I'm quit excited about the final result and will post pics. Have you already chosen your surgeon? I wish you all the best and that you will be happy with your revision X

I'm considering Dr. Denenberg in Omaha, Nebraska.... Have you heard of him? I read good things about your doctor on realself and he sounds appealing, as well, but I think Dr. D might be the doctor for me. I'm not ready to post and I don't have a date set yet, but it's nice to pay back to this website because it helps so many people! I can't wait to see you with your cast off... good luck!!

Hi, I just read reviews about your doctor and saw some before and after pic. Think he is a good surgeon too. Results are very natural and hope you will have the nose you are longing for. Indeed normally I do not post reviews but RealSelf has helped me to make a decision and go for it so I felt like helping others too.

Day 3
Think this is the worst day so far. I'm very swollen and bruised and have a headache! Not really in pain but feel very weak and little bit nauseous. My upper lip is stiff and my body is itchy. Hope that days will go fast! I'm looking forward for the cast off day.

I can't wait to see your final results, i also had a rhinoplasty 25 years ago and never was 100% happy with it. I've been reading reviews about Dr.Cochran, i live in New York so all the way to Texas would be very inconvenient but it may be worth it. I hope you great results!
November 20, 2016
You live in New York! Haha I just moved from Long Island New York to Texas 2 months ago!! lol I can't afford rhinoplasty in NY. It's like 15,000 for me. Here it's 9000 so it's not too bad. But I met him and he's so awesome ! He gives you the Nose YOU WANT. And he makes sure you like everything about it. He answers every question and he does over 300 surgeries a year ! So he is very good! I can't wait to get mine done !! And I'm sorry you aren't so happy with your rhinoplasty D; .. I know that this dr. Does secondary rhinoplasty a lot. If only you were here he would do it no problem

I was under the impression that Dr.Cochran charged around $30,000 for revision. It's seems outrageous but if his results are that good i guess it's worth it if you can afford it. I don't know anyone in N.Y. besides Dr.Tabbal that is known for revisions and he get's mixed reviews and doesn't show any photo's at all on his website which makes me a little nervous.
November 21, 2016
No not 30.000! I was told revision would be around 15.000 and that because it's more complicated. You should definitely do an online consultation and in 3 days you will get all info... what his vision is and the cost. Good luck
