There has been a lot of change over this month. As of now- the tenderness on the tip of my nose is starting to come down, but still have some numbness. The tip and underneath still feel rock hard to the touch, which I am assuming is swelling. I am still waiting hopefully for the columella to become less swollen, but overall I'm happy with the results. Also hopefully that the scar will fade more, it appears more red, maybe because I'm super pale lol.

As of now I am petty thrilled with the bridge of my nose, which is totally straight, exactly what I wanted! I was nervous for a little while after surgery because I still had a little bit of a bump where the humo WAS, but swelling ha come down and the skin is tightening back up. The tip of my nose and the underneath still feel rock hard, and I kinda feel like the part under my nose is hanging just as much as it did pre-surgery, although my doc said he definitely tucked it up. Since it feels super hard (and still tender) I am hoping that is all swelling and eventually I will see a little more refinement in the tip and hanging bit. I have to give Dr Losquadro credit- it looks so natural I almost feel like I had nothing done... Until I look sideways in the mirror. Here are the recent pics, along with one old one for comparison. It's hard to be patient, I want to see all swelling gone! If anyone can share how long before they saw pretty significant tip normalcy and also when tenderness disappeared, I would love that.

What a difference. You look beautiful. I have the same hump and hate it. I have wanted my nose done forever but have always been scared of a bad outcome. As I read results like yours I have hope that I could have the same. I also have a deviated septum so I have breathing issues. I am still trying to find a physician in NJ or PA near where I live. Thanks for sharing your story and please keep posting.

Looks great! I had a rhino almost 2 months ago and have the same concern about the hanging bit as you (we have very similar pre op noses). My surgeon told me it was swelling too and a lot will change at the 9-12 months mark. Let's hope theyre right!

Beautiful results, and thank you for posting pics from all stages of the healing because I see how dramatically the nose can change from the first week to 2-3 weeks later, when the swelling subsides. The final pic looks great, very pretty. Thanks for sharing!

It looks amazing! I have your pre nose and can only hope my outcome is as good as yours!

Was the hump on your bridge hard to the touch as well!! Your end result looks beautiful. I also just had a rhino with losquadro and I’m a bit worried because I got my cast off and now have swelling obviously but I still have a hump also but it’s hard to the touch... hoping it’s just swelling

Big difference from my pre-surgery dorsal hump! And it's only the beginning...
