So i had my first consultation with mr matti at harley street clinic on 12th november 2013 and have to say he is a lovely man and i could tell he was good as he identified the three things which bothered me about my nose. I have quite a small face and my nose i believe is prominent due to the slight nasal bump and width. Mr Matti was very complimentary of the rest of my features and was honest. He said i would look much better and my nose will fit better if i went through with the operation but even if i didnt i would still look attractive which was very sweet. However, as i am sure most people on here are paranoid about certain parts of their face i am about my nose and really want it done.
After much research and reviews read on here and other sites i found mr matti was one of the best in the UK which is where i am from. although he is a bit pricey i do believe u get what u pay for in life. The total cost including possible overnight stay in london is going to be £8000. I am new to this site in terms of writing reviews and looking for anyone who has had a similar operation with mr matti and their experiences.
mr matti will be doing my operation under GA and closed approach which brings me to my next question i dont know how nostrils and width can be reduced with closed approach which i will definately ask at next appointment. but another fear and guess the main one i have is going under GA, i feel so scared and think what if i never wake up as a i have a little girl. Any support and advise will be greatly appreciated

Anesthesia was something I was really scared of too. I was really nervous I would not wake up, and even went as far as half-jokingly telling my husband my wishes before I went for surgery. I'm not really sure what to tell you, because the risk IS there, but it is small, especially if you are young and previously healthy. Has anyone in your family ever had a reaction to anesthesia? Family history plays a role and if people in your immediate family had surgery and were fine, your chance of being fine just increased.
I was paranoid, because I work in the medical field in an ICU, and we do get freak accidents sometimes from surgeries gone wrong. With that said, plastic surgery is a little different, because they mostly deal with younger and healthier individuals. If it makes you feel better - in 20+ years my surgeon has operated on people, he has never had anyone die on his OR table or as a complication from his surgery.
When I finally awoke from my rhinoplasty last week, the first thing i said was "I''m alive!" LOL You will be fine

I am sure my nan recently had knee op she was elderly and with lots of medical problems she was fine and my mum had 4 c sections 20 years ago it was only general I. Am presuming my aunt recently had a boob job under ga but I just feel sick lol I haven't spoke to my anaesthetist yet I guess once I speak to him I'll be fine at the moment I am panicking so much

Thank you for starting your story here on RealSelf! Anesthesia freaked me right out, also. I found this post about GA (though in this case it is as related to breast augmentation, but it will still apply to rhinoplasty) very comforting. I hope it comforts you, too.
