Hello lovelies! The 9 month point just flew past...
8-25-12: I took some photos with a photographer...
So far no changes to note, swelling is pretty minimal. It's just progressing on its snails' pace of healing. No real complaints at this point (except those drasted uneven nostrils - which nobody sees unless I point it out and tilt my head backwards).
Hello beautiful people! Sorry haven't updated...
Sorry haven't updated but there haven't been a whole lot of changes - just been slowly and steadily healing. Tip is still numb and becoming a touch softer. If I put a cold finger on the tip, I don't feel anything. However if I put some pressure, I do feel the cold sensation.
Also - May 15, exactly 5 months post-op, was the first time I noticed a significant change of the view of the nose head on. Like the swelling decreased from the sides. (Whereas before it was mostly noticeable from the side-view). Hope everyone's doing well and will update again soon!
Provider Review
SO happy I did my research regarding rhinoplasty doctors and found Dr. Golden. The main thing about him is he focuses on what is realistic regarding what can or cannot be done, and has no problem communicating that. Additionally, he is fair and promises that as his patient, you are his patient for life and any problems after surgery are corrected by him and covered by the initial cost (none of this bs about still needing to pay anesthesia fees and such for a revision for something that wasn't completed correctly in the first place). I drove FIVE HOURS back and forth to see this man - multiple times for consultations, post-ops, etc. my rhinoplasty journey! And he is an angel - even offered to give me a cortisone shot during his stay in Chicago for a trip to save me the drive back and forth. Dr. Golden is Michigan's best kept secret - his before and afters yield perfect noses. Hope he never retires because a few friends are considering seeing him!
