I never hated my nose but in photos I didn't like my large nostrils and wanted a more refined tip. I researched rhinoplasty for along time and the more I read the more scared I became, however I still decided to go ahead with it. I am currently 9 weeks post op and it is one of the scariest journeys waiting to see your final outcome, some days I feel hopeful I'm going to be very happy and others completely unsure, waiting for the swelling to subside is the hardest part, especially like me if it has been uneven. Most rhino patients will know what it's like! You really do look in the mirror every hour to see if it has changed, I'm not going to add my surgeons details until I can give an accurate review but I will add a before and my nose as it is 9 weeks post op

Hi there, yes I definitely see it getting straighter.

Hi thanks for your update.
I had An alar adjusted. I'm also experiencing the same thing with my nostrils pulling slightly to the left and one is a little smaller than the other one. I only got my cast off yesterday so I know I've got a long way yet, but it's good to know it does get better.
Happy healing :)

I did write a proper reply but it's seems to have disappeared! Try and not worry, it's taken me until over 9 weeks post up to start to relax, hope your swelling gets better soon x

Thank you very much, unfortunately I'm not totally happy, I have alar retraction on one side and nose still pulls slightly to one side as cartilage isn't right, I've had a look at your profile, hopefully you will start to feel better soon. It's horrible waiting months to see if it's going to be okay xx
