Almost a week!
Got the stiches out yesterday which I felt like I was going to faint, the cast was removed which was really stuck on there so it hurt a little. The stints stay in for another 9 days because he pretty much reconstructed the whole nose.

Wow it's looking really good already but it's still early!

Cast came off!
Got the cast off and removed the stitches. Still have stints in for 7-10 days more. I have lots of swelling so it's hard to tell what it will actually look like but I'm posting before and after pics already. So far I love it! It's way straighter. Can't wait to see when the swelling goes away

Congratulations on a successful procedure. Dr. Stephan Szczerba, did an amazing job on your nose. It looks so natural, definitely a huge improvement. It looks like the nose you were born with, no one will ever know you had work done. Your features will really stand out once all the swelling is gone.
I had minor Rhinoplasty 29 days ago with a Dr. Manish shah. I had Radix Augmentation with a Medpor Implant for my Horizontal Glabellar Crease. It was a success, all my swelling and brusing has been gone for awhile now. I'm all healed up, but my skin is still tightening and will take a few months to return back to normal.
Good luck on your path to recovery and enjoying your new self. I can only imagine the confidence you must have with yourself now. Thanks for sharing your experience with realself. Many people with similar problems will benefit from your story.
