i have hated my nose since the age of 12, i got bullied for my 'big nose' and ended up with low self asteem. i had a bump on my nose and hated my profile. at 21 i finally booked myself in for a consultation and im so glad i did!
it is now a month after my surgery and i am really happy with the result, i had the hump removed and the tip more defined i also had my bridge lowered.
the surgery went well, i had to keep the cast on for 15 days (i ended up feeling very sorry for myself and depressed in that time). i was in no pain whatsoever throughout the whole thing. the cast has be off 2 and a half weeks, my nose does look a bit different to when i first saw it minutes after the cast removal, i dont know whether this is down to swelling. the feeling has fully come back in my nose, the tip is still very hard tho.
i have noticed the bones on either side of the nose where my hump was had protruded a little, its not very noticable and does seem to change from day to day so im not sure if this is down to swelling also.
overall i am a very happy girly :)

What a great result. I'm glad you're so happy with it. I would be, too.
The tip of your nose will be hard for quite some time. I want to say that mine was that way for at least a year.
Thanks so much for sharing your story and photos here on RealSelf.
Anyways, your new nose looks amazing. Really!
Mt front view looks great, just like yours did, so I'm hoping that if I ever get my nose done, it'll look like yours.
I'm just really hesitating and scared if the change is too drastic or not appealing in the end. I don't want it to be any worse. I always try avoiding talking to people in profile ( Which is impossible if you ever tried. ) so yeah. I love my body and face. I feel perfect beside my nose. But seeing you being so brave and getting a nice result, I feel more confident. (: Sorry for the rant!
(I'd like to send you some pictures, if you don't mind. )
Love your new nose. (:
