After years of research for who I wanted to have as my doctor I finally came across Dr. Grigoryants. I decided to post on real self because a lot of the real self blogs were super beneficial in my decision-making process! I'm from out of state and flew in to meet with Dr. G this past Wednesday.We discussed my expectations and I had a really good feeling with my choice. I also found out that I have a deviated septum which is great for me because insurance helps in the cost. After being on a waiting list for a while I got the call today that I am scheduled for September 14. I'm really excited and would really appreciate any advice or feedback. I will keep you guys posted of my journey as well as post pictures of my before-and-after's!!

She said she has been on the wait list for a while now. There is a priority to those who call first. I was on the wait list for an appointment in May for 5 months before I got the call. You never know when you'll get the call, and you may not even get the call. There's no guarantee. If you have an appointment scheduled, you're no longer on the waitlist.

I think since I didn't sign up for an actual surgery date, they put me on a wait list for any cancellations.
June 26, 2015
Thats nice! I will try to get on the list for any other cancellations.. July and August are the best months for me due to my work schedule but I have to make september work if that is all they have :(

What do you want to change? You have already quite perfect nose in my opinion :)
June 21, 2015
Thank u! I want to straighten it as well as decrease it in size.. It projects pretty far. Also it is not very refined.

Hey guys! I'm two weeks away from surgery! Does anybody have advice on aftercare? I ordered arnica and my mom is flying out to take care of me and my daughter.. Any advice on increasing my comfort level would be great. I honestly don't want to take my prescription pain mess if I don't have to. Did anyone else avoid these?? I will post a few more befores from all angles and a pic of the nose I am going for! I tried to pick someone with a similar face shape and eye width. I hope my expectations are realistic.. Feeling nervous ????????

Good luck! I just had mine done by another doctor here in Austin. Search for "lenosestory" in the Realself search bar and you'll find a review by a girl who also did rhino with Dr. G. Her review has a lot of great info on meds and supplies that I used going into my own surgery.

I'm almost 2 weeks post-surgery. Only advice I have is the pain is relatively low but prepare yourself for feeling like you have the worst cold of your life. You may or may not be able to breath through your nose. Find out if your surgeon will be packing your nose. If so, you can't breathe out your nose until they remove it. It was only in for 24-hours for me and I panicked a bit feeling the dry mouth breathing.

It's not painful overall so take your arnica for the bruising. Really in a week you'll feel good. It's a fast recovery compared to most surgeries. Good luck!! xx
