Hey everyone,

I'm 7 days post op. I've had 4 difficult days, I couldn't breathe most of these days, nor sleep. And today most of it is gone, my swelling seems to have gone down (thank god I stopped smoking).
Tho because of the septoplasty I think my left nostril is very very swollen inside, I don't know if it makes sense to you?
Anyway, it's only 1 day before I get the cast off, and guys not only I'm nervous to see the result but I'm also very excited. I'm hoping the surgeon did good and that the end result will be nice, well by nice I mean I want the result to be what I did expect to have.
So this is what I did last time I spoke to my surgeon pre-op, I took a picture of me where where I had a highlight and contour (make up) because I think that the moment I love my face the most it's when I play with make up and re-shape my face and the way I want to, I usually make my nose look thinner and I love that, just hoping that the surgeon really got that!

Anyway cast will be off in 1 day, I will keep you posted

Hey
Day 3 here, hum? How hard is it not to breath, I don't if I mentioned to you guys that I had a rhino and a septoplasty at the same time. Really not easy not to breathe.

Any way, I don't how to feel about my nose, I don't even know if it has changed, it's has another shape for sure but doesn't look cute so far. Any I'll throw some photos of day 3
Excuse my hair, I'll get it done pretty soon!!!

You're gorgeous! I can't wait to see your new nose! I had an open rhino too on 6/30. My incision site is a little red and scabby. I'm too very concerned with scarring but everything I've read and my surgeon say that with time they typically heal very well. My only concern is that I'm worried people at work will notice and ask me stupid questions lol.

I wasn't able to breathe at all the first day and what got me through was a little spray bottle with water to spray my dry mouth. It was hard/uncomfortable to drink out of a straw for me so the spray bottle worked wonders.

At least your surgeon took the risk to do an open surety At the end mine was a closed one. I'm not even going right now, even my mum calls me a little monster. Did the surgeon not see my black skin before he got me white cast looooolll

I had an open rhino to remove a dorsal hump and raise the tip. My surgeon chooses to do open or closed depending on the situation. My nose bridge was a bit crooked so that's why he chose to do an open one. I wish I didn't have to get an open one just because of the visible scar. I still love my nose but I could've done without the visible scar haha. I'm 11 days post op and my nose still gets a little stuffy but breathing is good off and on. Hope your breathing gets better soon!

Well... It feels weird to wake up and to have a new bruising nose but it's still very cool. And I'm very excited. I have no pain or whatsoever, obviously baby nose is very swollen and it looks completely : enormous, bizarre, weird. But I have faith and I do hope the result will be amazing
Thanks to all of you for your support!!!!
