My original nose was caved in from the left and wasn't straight. The right image is 2 weeks and there's still swelling on the sides of the bridge. But it's so much better!

Original vs Morph vs 2 Weeks Post Op
rajasingh12345July 3, 2018
Here is a comparison between my original nose, Mr Ion's morph and my nose 2 weeks post op. Bare in mind that 2 weeks is still early days but it's still a HUGE improvement to my original nose.

Wow I think this is amazing! So happy for you!

Your tip is beautiful! I love how he left your tip ethnic & heavier. It’s absoultely perfect. I must say that I do not prefer his shorter noses that he does. He overdoes it sometimes, but this is one of his best.

Appreciate it BamBam, thank you very much! I'm really happy with with he has done

Me too! Looks way better than the morph. Your morph was more straight and on us ethnic people I believe you have to keep the nose more heavier and full, and he did a fantastic job. So natural, so beautiful. Enjoy. X

The swelling has reduced but it's still early days. I have swelling on the sides of my bridge and the tip as expected. The tip feels hard which is expected too.
I'm still doing the massaging, applying tape and using the sinus rinse regularly. The sinus rinse is really effective as I skipped a few days and my nose started to get congested with crusts. Ew! So make sure you use it 2-3 times a day. I also have to apply Backtroban ointment to the columella scar 3 times a day too. It's an antibiotic to help the scar heal. You'll get this with your medication pack from the hospital when you leave. It says in the instructions that you have to use it for 5 days after the operation but DO NOT throw it away afterwards as you'll need to use for another few weeks. There is a lot in there to last you a while.
For the neilmed sinus rinse you have to use sterilised water. You can’t use normal water as it is not good for the insides of your nose and sinuses. The best way I found to do this is to boil the water for 5 minutes and then let it cool down to room temperature which takes about an hour. This gets rid of all the bad things in the water so that it’s purified. As the weather is hot these days I put a fan near by and the water is cooled within 10 minutes :) Here is a really great tutorial on how to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qebt3yxR1J0
