6+++++ month update
$100,000
Hi all sorry that it's been awhile I was out of the country for some time and then shortly after I got back I went on a road trip all the way to Alaska and right when I returned there was some family deaths so all in all I've been stressed and going non stop. Anyways about my nose!!! Overall I'm kinda in the middle on liking it/disliking it... Some aspects of it are better like the hump from the side-view however the tip droops and it is very noticeable from every angle. Honestly I want to get it redone, I said that to myself a month after and as time progresses my opinion gets stronger. I texted the doctor probably two months after surgery with my complaints and he agreed that something was off and needed to be fixed so after I came back home from Europe I emailed him several pictures with the complaints we previously texted about and he made it seem like I was overreacting which was pretty annoying since he said himself it should be fixed before. I talked to some other doctors and travelled for several months and I'm finally home again for a family service and I'm going to be emailing him more pictures as he requested. So I can't really rate yet all I can say is I'm pretty bummed and hope things can be resolved : (

third day post op :(
Horrible horrible swelling. My eyes were swollen shut I am becoming extremely worried that my face still won't be presentable in a month when I am taking a trip overseas to meet an old friend :( I would cry but I can't because my eyes are so swollen :( did anyone else get this bad and still recover enough in one month??? my tip was countered I feel like I made a huge mistake as my nose before wasn't that bad. I just want to cry

I had a BA and not a nose job obviously but you'll be fine! Seriously! Totally normal feelings. As long as everything's healing each day will get better! I'm sure a month will be plenty of time. How was dr. warnock?

I was exactly the same as you! The third day was the worst day, I felt so depressed and upset with what I'd done to myself. I just felt like I'd been butchered. I didn't look anything like me, black piggy eyes, jowls, bruising, a massive top lip! Completely unprepared for it. I'm now 4 weeks and I am the happiest I've ever been. I look the best I've ever looked, my skin is glowing, my eyes back to normal, just a tiny bit of stiffness in my lip. You will be absolutely fine I promise. In a week you will look so much better, just let your body heal itself and don't look in the mirror too much yet. I took vitamin c 3x a day and Bromelain extract, loads of fresh fruit and veg and just try and rest as much as possible. You'll be ready for your trip-please don't worry. It's completely normal [RS bleep]

Yes loads, it's now just on the tip. I went back for my 4 wk check up today and the surgeon is really pleased with it. Just hang on in there, I promise it'll be worth it! X

The narcotics are horrible, they make you feel so wired and nauseous. You won't need them, Panadol was fine for me :) it's actually not as painful as you would think, it's just congested and uncomfortable.

Thanksss!! yea they make me really sick I am gonna ask for toradol which is like a really strong ibuprofen :) [RS bleep]

All I could take was paracetemol and I was fine. It's not really that painful, more uncomfortable with a dry mouth and congestion. Make sure you take some lip balm into the hospital! I forgot and it was the worst mistake. Hope it all goes well!! Xx

I'm the same with you on the faculty I feel like they didn't really care for me ect I understand they have a job but it's a nerve wracking thing for patients and they could be more considerate.. I felt very rushed. Also the anesthesiologist was horrible, I almost want to report him. At the time I was taking a medication that conflicts with anesthesia and I asked him if he knew what it was and his response was "no, where are you going with this" WTF! I was so pissed I almost walked out, in fact I should of because he could have killed me. Completely unacceptable, I should report him. I'm sorry you feel your chest size is too small.. They look very nice but get what you mean.. Have you considered changing them? Have you contacted him about the size? Hope you are well and hope the ear pinning goes well!:)
