I think my nose has no more swelling now and i'm very pleased with it. It was totally worth it and I recommend my Doctor to everyone who wants a nose job!

Thank you!

BTW, how do you know all swelling went down. Is it because the tip is soft now ??
N
July 11, 2013
it doesnt feel like it did in the past at the tip. i have complete feeling at the tip where before in certain parts i didn't. plus the dr said it would take a year for all the swelling to go down in my case since i have thick skin.

Do you mean it doesn't feel like the past like your pre op nose or in past like beginning stages of surgery??
N
July 11, 2013
i meant it didnt feel like my post op nose and my post op nose felt funny at the tip for a long time. the dr said that feeling was swelling. the feeling felt like at some places at the tip felt numb or had no feeling.

Wow. Your so pretty! Your nose looks great! I'm getting my done as well. I'm punjabi too :p. Check out my pixs! Any comments would be nice or suggestions!

you are pretty. i really do not think you need surgery. your nose looks proportional to me plus it doesnt take away from the beauty of your face. i think you look really indian....my old nose, i felt, took away from other aspects of my face.

Well it's been six months and the swelling has definitely gone down so be patient if you don't see a smaller nose right away. In the morning after waking up my nose always seems more swollen to me.
I'm happy with my decision and I really don't miss my old nose at all. I wish I did this in my 20's because I am not so self conscious about my nose anymore. I got exactly what I wanted ...which was a proportional straight nose not too small but that would fit my face.

I decided to put my pictures back up. I took it down because I didnt want everyone to know I had a nose job but if someone asks me I know I won't deny it...but no one has asked me yet which is why I love the surgeon I chose. I feel like my nose is natural looking.

I think it is terrific to see your pics again....thanks; Reviews are of much less worth to others without them. I am rapt you are so happy with the result & that nobody has noticed. I hope mine goes unnoticed as well.

I think you are stunning looking. It is the guys who should be awkward around you (not you around them), so I hope your esteem is way up now!

Aww thank you. It's not sky high but it's better. I don't feel self conscious anymore thinking that a guy will think "oh she's pretty except for her big nose".

Your result are great! You still look like you but just prettier. I am Indian and I went to Dr Fred Bressler yesterday. I really like what I see. I am just debating about the cost since he is out of network and the septoplasty part will not be covered either due to my very high deductible. I have consulted with Dr Funk as well who use to work with Dr Bressler. I just feel Dr Bressler got my aesthetic concerns better than Dr funk. still confused!

Wow, when you compare the last two pics you posted, there is a huge difference between before and after! I think your surgeon did a great job! You'll have to post new profile pics soon!
