These pictures were taken 5 weeks post op, the swelling on my nostril is going down and it looks better. I am really liking my profile :) to be honest my profile looked horrible before the surgery. I’m glad I chose Dr. Arenas for my procedures, I have been looking at other rhinoplasty results and I’m very happy the way my came out :)
I’ll post updated photos in a couple weeks.

Hello, I took these pics on Friday which was four weeks post op. I’ll keep posting pictures, but not as often. I know the first weeks there are a decent amount of changes going on, so I wanted to show people how ones nose progresses.
My nose is not as swollen and It keeps going down. I’m liking my results so far and I can’t wait to see the final result.

Hello, I just took these photos and I’m 19 days post op. I’m happy with my side profile, I definitely feel my profile is MUCH better than I was.
I know I’m posting a lot of updates, but I think this helps others coping/ dealing with the process. I like seeing videos/ reviews with progress information, not just a before and after, so I’m trying to do the same.
I’m remaining positive and I hope the skin that is between my nostrils evens out soon. Also there are a couple bumps on the top of my nose by my bridge, which I’m hoping also smooth out soon. You can’t see the bumps but they can only be felt.
I’m glad I went with Dr. Arenas and I can’t wait until I’m at the 3-6 month mark, so that the swelling is pretty much all gone.

How are you liking your results? Any complications so far?

Hello ViriC,
I hope you are well. I'm happy with my side profile thus far, although I still have swelling on my left nostril and a small bump towards the top. Although, it feels like one bump is diminishing. I'm hoping this swelling subsides soon.
I'm taking a couple supplements which I feel are helping my skin and I'm still taking some other supplements for the swelling.
Which procedure(s) are you looking to get done?

Hello ViriC, I'm still recovering but I'm happy so far with my results. Although, I know it will take time for the swelling to go down.
I was looking at doctors in Mexico and Colombia, but I felt more comfortable going to Mexico since it is closer to home. I originally contacted four doctors, two in Guadalajara and two in Tijuana. Dr. Arenas was really my first choice, but I wanted to contact a few just to get opinions. Since Dr. Arenas was most responsive and since he has so many good reviews, I knew I wanted to go with him. Another factor that drew me to him was that I read a lot of reviews on how compassionate and understanding Dr. Arenas is, so I knew if in the event something happened he would be there to help.
I'm happy with my choice and I'm glad I got the procedures done, I feel like I look so much better. Good luck with your procedures. I didn't know I needed a chin implant, but Dr. Arenas suggested it and I'm so glad I got it, it made a big difference.
