I always had an issue with my nose being somewhat crooked and having a bump on the bridge. So I chose Dr. Grigoryants after a lot of research. He has mostly excellent reviews, and of course every surgeon has a couple bad reviews too. I am overall pleased so far with results, only at 2 weeks post op.

Lol those were actually before. Those were not bad pictures, I was definitely experienced in angling my face a certain way in pics to make the flaws less noticed. Thank you so much though! I am my own worst critic so I was def picky about it! I will be honest- I definitely could have lived with my old nose- I did not hate it. I just wanted to have less insecurity in my life, especially when taking pictures with groups of friends and in the future on my wedding day etc... Those moment that it will truly matter to me

Thank you! Yeah these pictures don't show the flaws that bothered me so much personally. I just think my old nose (was fine) did not fit my face as well as a smaller and cute nose would. I have a small frame, small face, small head etc and wanted to feel balanced and proportionate :) I had a hard time letting go of my old nose because I did like some aspects of it, but then I'd take a picture and realize how much it bothered me at times just outweighed the good. I'm much happier now, and will be even happier I hope when ALL the swelling goes away :) thanks so much

POD1

I didn't post on here during the process, but I'll still post what each day was like! POD1 was not bad at all, I had MINIMAL swelling and bruising, it was actually shocking how much I did not bruise. My eyes didn't really puff up at all at this point. The night of surgery was like I never had surgery lol, I felt pretty good.

POD2 - a little bruising as expected!

Sooo I felt.... OK POD2. I got confused because I started counting the day of surgery as pod1 but it's technically day after. Lol... Anyway, now I know. So POD2 was only a little more bruising, but still not much swelling anywhere. I couldn't really do anything with my mouth other than gently attempt to suck smoothie through a straw and drink fluids. My boyfriends mom traveled with me across the USA from Virginia to California, what a sweetheart! She was the best care taker, and made me "bone broth" for my harder recovery days. This was sooo nutritive dense and I really enjoyed it. I think it truly made me heal faster. Just a recommendation! I didn't have any nausea still at this point, my stomach felt totally normal. I just felt like my nose and mouth were stiff and I was feeling weak and tired. I took my pain meds around the clock, MUST do this guys! Even though it is not horribly painful, it is horribly UNCOMFORTABLE. Such a weird thing to explain.... basically tons of pressure in your face and you get frequent head aches from that. Take your meds that the dr gives you! Also remember that it will not totally deplete your discomfort, so don't take more pain med than they say to take. It could make you throw up which during rhinoplasty recovery is NO fun. I could get out of bed to walk around and use the bathroom, but absolutely felt the weakness come on and had to lay back in bed quickly. I had a rooftop patio to go up on, but I felt no desire on this day. Too tired, too weak, and shouldn't climb stairs. Be safe and protect your nose. I have pics from my mans mom, she went up there. Cali is soo gorgeous .
