SOOOOoooOOOO....yesterday I was able to get the stitches out and the cast off. I got another glimpse of the nose that isnt so nosey anymore. haha. Then we had to tape her up til Friday. It is still kinda puffy and swollen...which varies from hour to hour...but I really like it so far.
This nose feels...ummmm odd. It doesn't move quite like the old nose...which is cool just different. The supersonic smelling powers are still in force. I'm hoping that fades...there are some things that shouldn't be so smell-able.
New nose is also SUPER SENSITIVE...I some how popped my self in the face with my purse strap. HOLY HELL! I felt like some one hit me with a 2x4. Please be super careful if you are prone to being a clutz like me.
I have some new pictures (look mom!) that I will post if my email ever cooperates.

Looks so good! I'm going to have to be one those who has to be extra careful because I'm naturally clumsy! So sorry that happened to you. OUCH!
I have a question for ya. Did you have your tip raised at all?
March 6, 2013
Thanks so much. Dr Weiler said he was going to reduce the length and refine the tip which would also reduce the droop (i called it the squidward look)...there was plenty of length and alot of tip to refine. ALOT of work to be done. I think in the process of refining and reducing that the tip was raised to keep everything proportioned...does that make sense?
March 6, 2013
Yeah I think that makes sense. I'm trying to decide if I want to lift my tip or not. Your nose was not bad at all! At least in my eyes any way. But It does look much better on you now! It just looks a bit softer and refined. Congrats. I cannot WAIT to get there!

Oh your nose looks great! Perfect work!

Sooo pretty, it suits your face so much! I can't wait to see it without the tape :) And TELL ME about the sensitivity; I've been lucky not to bop my nose too hard since getting the cast off but when I was about 3 days post-op, I leaned in to kiss my fiance and bopped my nose right off of his and HOLY BATMAN, it felt like someone punched me lmao The pain only lasted a second but it was like an electric shock. It's hard not to forget about it though; it's a good sign when we bop it - it means we're getting used to our nose and going back to behaving normally (even if the pain sucks) ;)

Day Eight...I think:
OH MY GOOOOODNESS....I can smell and I'm not sure that I want to. Does anyone else have a supersonic sense of smell?
My only concern...even tho its too early for concerns....the stitches between my nostrils are making the skin rather...ummm puffy and odd looking. Normal??? I hope it reduces ALOT before I have to go back to work.
I also got a glimpse of the new nose...my cast got steamy while I was taking a bath and kinda flipped up and over. It looks pretty decent. Monday cant get here fast enough. I wanna see for real!
