So I went for my six months check up. Everything is great, I love my nose, dont even remember I had a surgery since there is no numbing at all, nose feels like normal. One small problem I still have a bump on the bridge. A small bone sticking out. From the left profile hard to see, but from the right its visible. My Dr agrees with me and is not happy with it too. He suggested to do a minor surgery again. Basicaly just file the bone down, nothing else. So far I am thinking November again. he says this time around no packing and cast for maybe 2-3 days. Has any of you guys gone thru the same thing?

$8000.00 total. He is Anthem provider, so if thats the insurance you have it will be less. He is not a provider of mine so I had to pay out of pocket the whole thing.

Your nose looks amazing! Any updates? I'm considering having a rhinoplasty. Was is scary? Who was your doctor by the way if you don't mind me asking?

You look so great! Your nose was not bad to begin with, but the subtle change to it has made you more beautiful!
