22 Yrs Old, Septorhinoplasty w/ Dr. Andrew Miller - Edison, NJ

I've hated my nose since I was a child.. I remember begging my mother for a nose job in high school. Of course she said no, and said not to be so vain. She didn't understand (I inherited my nose from my Dad's side of the family, Italians). So, here I am, finally about to get it done!! It's always weighed on my mind and bothered me so much.. it's not like hating yourself for being overweight, because if you're overweight you can at least try to do something about it.. Having a bad feature that you can't physically change yourself is frustrating..

I'm pretty nervous and equally excited for this surgery. I'm naturally a pessimist so there's a part of me that worries that I'll come out looking worse.. It's hard for me to imagine my face any different than it is, and I'm relying on Dr. Miller's expertise to work some magic on this nose! I've never hated my front view as much as my side profile. My lose is long and skinny, with a drooping tip when I smile. I also have suffered from horrible allergies and difficulty breathing, which with also be addressed in the surgery. Dr. Miller assured me that I'll come out looking & breathing great, "I'll be an enhanced version of myself". He said he will shorten the tip, file away the bridge, and also fix the little section of skin that is on the underside of my nose.

So far I've met with him twice, and I'll be seeing him one more time next week before my surgery coming up in couple weeks. I'll post updates of everything that's happening if anyone would like to stay posted :)

Here's a quick computer simulation Dr. Miller did for me on my 2nd visit of the possible outcome

I cannot wait to get my nose done.. My fiancé took this picture today, and I'm cringing!!
