WORTH IT
I've wanted my nose done for as long as I can remember. Since I was not even a teenager, and I'm 33 now. I ended up getting glasses, which hid the bump I didn't like most of the time, but not always - plus who wants to always be wearing glasses. I decided I wanted LASIK, but not with my current nose. I went to Dr. LaBruna in Manhattan and I could not be more pleased. I did it yesterday and today I feel great. Didn't even need to take Tylenol, nothing. I'm swollen and the bruises are starting, but they aren't that bad. I can already see how perfect and straight my nose is. I'm so so so happy I finally did it

I'm basically fully recovered. I have sliiight bruising which I could cover with makeup if I needed to - but since I have to leave the tape on till I go for my follow up Monday, it seems silly to bother to put makeup on. My swelling is basically gone. The inside corners of my eyes we're staying to turn purple the first night, so I thought my bruising and black eyes would be really bad, but it just never happened.

He was incredible. I did it Wednesday and by yesterday was fully recovered. I can't really believe it went so smoothly. I'm going tomorrow to get my tape off and stitches out so I'll do another update then :) I feel like I wasted vacation days by taking all of next week off!

Wow! I'm over 4 weeks post-up and still have bruising :( It was a revision though.
You look great!

Thank you! I think drinking pineapple juice helped because of the bromeline. And I slept with my head very elevated for the first week or so. I'm sure some was just lucky genetics tho, so I can't take too much credit.
How are you feeling post op? Is a revision recovery much different?
