I LOVE my New Nose!
This was the best decision I've made for myself in...
This was the best decision I've made for myself in a long time. The results are exactly what I was hoping for and the process was pretty easy breezy. I stayed in Utah for the entire 7-day recovery and, at about day 5, the girls at the MAC counter in Layton gave me a fun 'how to cover up the black eyes' makeup tutorial. The cast came off at day 7 and everything was downhill from there. I'm not kidding, the most uncomfortable part was not being able to wear sunglasses for a few weeks. I'd make the same decision all over again in a heartbeat.
There truly aren't words to adequately describe how pleased I am with the results of my Rhinoplasty. I was quite nervous to get it done - honestly, it took me years to do it because I just never felt like I had found the right surgeon. I was so scared they would leave me with a worse nose than I had. But, when I stumbled upon Dr. Bitner in Utah, I just knew he was going to take good care of me.
The procedure was a breeze, the recovery was totally manageable with ZERO complications, and his staff was - without exception - fantastic. My new nose is exactly what I wanted - and quite different from my old one - but not one person has mentioned a thing (with the obvious exception of the few folks who knew I was getting it done). To me, that is a sign that my surgeon nailed it. It looks great - it also looks very natural. I caught my husband looking at me the other day and when I asked him what was up, he said, "I just don't know how he could have done any better."
I told very few people I was getting this done, so going back to work with obvious "post nose-job" going on was just not happening. With a little under-eye concealer, I was able to be comfortably back to work at just under 2 weeks and, by week 3, I was enjoying vacation in Virginia without any concealer at all.
If you're considering a rhinoplasty, find a surgeon you completely trust and go for it.
I absolutely recommend Dr. Bitner... he will forever hold a special place with me for taking such great care of my face.
So glad you're loving your new nose. We would love to see some before and after photos, would you consider sharing some with the community?
