I want a revision for both my bridge and tip. I did a simulation myself. I want to know what you guys think!!
I widened the bridge a bit, making it more symetrical as well, and i shortened the tip.

Guys, I am devestated. I will have revision but for now I cry every day like a baby, it hurts so much... I am so upset with the world and my doctor, i wont trust anyone every again. nothing that was planned happened and he still denies it and says it is good and blames me.
My tip is almost the same as before, my bridge is extremely crooked and thin, and my tip is huge for my bridge. I was so pretty before, now i look horrible. i can't sleep, i cant eat...

the bridge has improved - not as thin as before ... the tip and the lower third look swollen still ... that may be why it is not straight ... understand your frustration ... be patient ... if it does not settle down, a good surgeon can fix it

My rhinoplasty seems like a joke.

It's been 6 months and I've never been once happy... My nose becomes more droopy every month and it almost looks like how it did before. Since the bridge is super thin, the tip stands out making it more droopy and huge than it is. My pre-op nose was better, more strong on the bridge and more straight. I will get a revision this summer to lift the tip more, correct the thinness and crookedness of bridge and make it more in harmony with other parts. Above that, I need to get that small thin ugly unicorn hump shaved. theres also a hard pea-sized substance which is visible from one side, on my tip. i need to get that fixed too.
This was a tough, tough, tough journey guys. Did it ruin my life? In a way, yes! I have to admit!

Relatively recent research suggests the use of 3mhz ultrasound therapy to "counteract edema, fibrosis and scar tissue enabling the nasal tip skin to shrink". The longer term negative effects (if any) are not known ... I have recently tried this technology to reduce the remaining swelling in the tip of my nose ... and I believe it is working. If you are interested, I can send you more info as it is a commercial product.

I don't think your nose is bad. The side view is great and the shape looks natural. My experience is worst cause i've got big nostrials left and the new doc I saw told me there is no hope to reduce them.

How are you?
I noticed you have quite similar problem than I have. my problems occured when surgeon did something to my nose when I was under anestesia. I never wanted a rhinoplasty but he gave me one. Worst nightmare of my life. I had the best nose for my face and he took it away. Who does that? Psychopath maybe?
