Going into surgery in almost 1 month. Starting to get a bit nervous!
I have loved reading everyone's stories and experiences so I decided to now document my own journey as a way to help other people as others have helped me :) Let me know if you have any questions!!
As background I have never liked my nose. I used to play a lot of soccer growing up i.e. getting the ball in my face constantly along with hitting into things which caused a lot of trauma (I think).
I have a deviated septum, crooked nose, and a dorsal hump. These are all things I am looking to fix through my surgery. Going into this I want to come out with a natural looking nose with minimum swelling, bruising etc.

OK, by far when of the best afters especially the difference from before. Absolutely stunning! I am glad I can use your example for when I get mine done. Dr. G's noses are perfect.

Hi Everyone! Thought I would update you with some photos of me now so you can see what it looks like before. The bump is my biggest concern in photos and then breathing as my septum is deviated.
If anyone here has had rhinoplasty with Dr. Epstein I would also love to connect!
I'm currently making my shopping list of things for pre/post op - quite tedious but exciting as the date approaches. Let me know if you have any "must haves" ! Thanks!!

OMG i love your nose!!! I wouldnt change a thing, u look seriously gorgeous. Just be aware that this surgery is risky and your body might heal different to what you would like even with the best of surgeons.

Thanks so much EMK. I really appreciate it :) I know it's risky that's why i ended up cancelling today for the operation i was supposed to have on the 9th. I need to do more research and be 100% sure of my surgeon.

I just read your story - thank you so much for sharing that. It has really helped me put everything in perspective and to not rush into this. I am now thinking of going to California for a consult rather than for surgery to be even more sure. Thank you again. I hope you are able to find peace and hopefully the right surgeon to help you. It's important for these communities to have real people like your self share their experiences.
