I've been getting a few requests for additional pictures. Here they are.

I wanted very natural results. I wanted to look like myself. That was the first thing I told my Dr. I remember telling him that I didn't necessarily want a 'small' nose, the most important thing to me was getting rid of the hump. I wanted my nose/chin to be in better balance with the other features of my face.

My chin implant is very conservative. Very subtle change. Just big enough to make a difference, yet small enough that is not a noticeable change to others (or even myself) unless I look at before and after pictures. In fact, not one person has noticed that I had a chin implant put in. My chin is still slightly recessed, but I actually find this more aesthetically pleasing. Softer and more feminine. It might not be a beauty 'ideal' but I personally didn't want to go too big implant wise.

I didn't want or ask for perfect. Just an improved version of myself.

Until next time.

Dr. Enrique Andrade is a consummate professional and extremely skilled at performing rhinoplasties. His before and after pictures are all great, he believes in natural results and customizing every nose to its new face (no cookie cutter/ overdone noses). I couldn't be happier with the whole process from e-mailing back and forth and answering all my questions and concerns, to the consultation where he put all my worries at ease, to his amazing staff, to his immaculate office space. I couldn't be happier with Dr. Andrade and my results. Thank you.

You look great. What size chin implant did they use? Does it have wings? I'm getting my nose and chin done in a month and I'm more scared of my chin. Did you have a hard time smiling for a few weeks? I'm going back to work on day 8. Kinda scared about that.

I stayed in the city for 1 week before flying back home. All you would really need to budget for is plane ticket, hotel, + food. Look online for deals in airfare and hotels. Hope that helps.

After 7-14days. My cast was taken off 7days after surgery, he then recommended I keep the tape on for about week after that. Every Dr. Is different.

Very small changes since my last update.

-less swelling
-even though the amount of swelling has improved, the unpredictability/unevenness of it has not.
-still have good days and bad days.
-the skin on my face went crazy after the surgery, and I'm still dealing with breakouts now!! :( (anybody else go through or going through this???)
-I'm still happy I went through with the surgery, one of the best decisions I have ever made.
