Tip of the nose is softening and I have been back to my full capacity fitness routine for three weeks now. dr. C assured me there is nothing I can do to mess up my results so I have resumed my marathon training! Yippee!! Living my profile! I feel so free from having to turn my body to face someone when the look at me! I am still learning to just stay how I am because my profile is great!

For the longest time I was oblivious to my nose....
For the longest time I was oblivious to my nose. In 9th grade my friends pointed out that my nose looked like a birds beak! From then on I was self conscious of my profile.
Dr. Cochran took his time, listened to my concerns, and gave me a BEAUTIFUL, proportioned profile. I'm so thankful for him!!!

Beautiful either way, but I'm glad you're happy! Thank you for sharing on RealSelf. Did you hit any particular rough patches during recovery?

One rough patch was at the one week point. I felt like I was coming down with a bad cold. I thought it was a normal part of healing but I think it was due to lack of appetite the week after surgery. I loaded up of veggies, fruit and vitamin C. Felt good a few days after! I highly recommend to anyone considering this to prep a ton of veggies and fruit before surgery. Also take vitamin c a few weeks before. Healing from surgery takes healthy fuel!

Omg!! Ur nose looks great!! I so want rhinoplasty and I'm thinking about setting up a consult with him. I live in Texarkana , so not too far away. How did u feel after the anesthesia? Did you feel nauseous at all? And did u bruise a lot and uncomfortable ? Sorry for so many questions , but dang He did a good job on you!

The pain was minimal, but the pressure from swelling was awful. I bruised horribly. It lasted about 12 to 14 days! Those are my biggest complaints about the surgery.
I was so scared about anesthesia. I have a family and was so scared to go under and not wake up! Silly, I know. But honestly it was fine. I didn't feel bad from it, just tired. Never threw up or felt sick. The pain medication was awful after a few days. I'm not a big person so I think I was taking too much. Once I stopped I felt human again.
Good luck, and I highly recommend Dr.cochran.
