Hi guys. Been meaning to update you all but this app kept crashing. Here are some pics. Four months later and I love the results more and more. Haven't had a chance to see the doctor yet but I will this Saturday.

Two weeks post op

So it's been two weeks since my surgery and nose is improving every day.
I can breathe fine and evenly through both nostrils. I tape my nose every night to help with the swelling which works so I highly recommend it.
I love that Dr. G didn't change my nose too much. It's natural and very fitting for my face.

Hello! Did you ask dr G to have a natural result?
December 28, 2015
I didn't have to tell him anything. He looked at my face and told me exactly what he would do.

I want a natural result as well. Thanks for the update. Happy healing :)

Looks very natural and still a big improvement. How did you communicate this natural wishes to Dr G? Did you show him pics? Thank you for posting new pics!
December 28, 2015
Hi! No, I didn't show him any photos. He just did whatever he thought would be best. I love that about him

I would like to know what you told him too lol, because I am Hispanic and I can't really have a cute, little nose, I want to keep it a good, strong size actually. Did he do an alar base reduction for you? I think you are so pretty.

I'm still very stuffed up, but I've been using avocado oil to moisten inside of my nose and it's helped clear up my breathing. I'm just anxiously waiting for the swelling go down so I can see more of my nose.

You're very pretty! Can't wait to see how it will look with less swelling. I think we have similar noses. Did he say you have thick skin?
December 17, 2015
Thank you! Yes he said my skin is thick so it'll take a while before the swelling goes down.

it took me about three weeks to become "unstuffed" - I was really scared to clean my nose aggressively for the first two weeks, and then finally I just went for it, haha. I mean I cleaned it of course, but once I got over the fear of messing something up, I was able to get some stuff out (gross I know) and shortly after that I was able to breathe much better.

Thanks for posting a before picture of the front. Your new nose is looking good! Keep us updated on your progress. Have patience! It will look better every day.
I hope your breathing improves soon. I always wonder how exactly the experience of not being able to breathe thtough the nose post-surgery is. Can you eat normally? Can you swallow easily?
I pinch my nose just to have an idea how the feeling must be (in preparation for a future surgery) but I can barely swallow and I also get some popping in my ears when trying to swallow with my nose (completely) pinched.

It sort of feels like that... especially like the day before cast removal, I could feel gross bubbling when I swallowed... I have very severe allergies so I was used to that feeling. It still sucks, haha, but it's only for a few days until the cast comes off.
