Finally able to put makeup on! My nose was pretty sore for about the first 2 weeks. Week 3 I could stand putting on foundation etc, but it was still uncomfortable. I'm 5 weeks healed, this is what it looks like... yay!!!

Day 5, splint off!!

A word of warning- do not be alarmed if your nose doesn't look cute fresh out of the splint. I wasn't ready for my reflection when Dr Weber handed me the mirror- I looked like an Avatar! My nose was so swollen there was very little definition, and the tip look puffy and large. He asked me what I thought and all I could say was "wowwww"... haha. Then I got home from the office and had a chance to examine it in the mirror and decided that yes, it looks VERY different to me, but the hump was gone, it was straight, and it was much smaller from a profile view, so it was exactly what I wanted (or it will be, when the swelling goes down).

He did a great job. It already looks pretty and you still have tons of swelling so it will only get better!

Thank you for the kind words, I am looking forward to seeing it get even better although even if this were the final result I know I'd still be ecstatic

Thank you for your consistent updates. Your results look great, and you're right, the swelling can take up to one year to subside. Please keep your progress photos coming.

Absolutely HATING not being able to breathe through my nose. Waking up with a painfully dry mouth every few hours. Not being able to taste anything. Running out of breath while I'm eating. SO ANNOYING! Still no pain though. Well, maybe the tiniest bit. Staying on top of my meds, writing down what I took and when helps a lot. Bruising is super minimal, my eyes aren't even swollen.
