Trying Again... Better Be the Last Time! -Miami, FL

March Update
So hard to remember to log in anymore... Just so busy, and the best reason I don't think about logging in anymore is that I am still no longer fixated on my nose! So true! Breathing has not changed... and nose is still a bit crooked, but I am so happy it isn't collapsing anymore and looks normal! I was never looking for perfection, so I had low expectations on this revision, and all I can say is that I am a lot happier with the results than my first time. My doctor, however, is a bit more of a perfectionist than I am (which is good) - he is not happy with a little bump on my bridge that has supposedly appeared as swelling has diminished... Honestly, it hasn't bothered me. Last appointment, he mentioned he was not happy with it and was potentially up for a revision when the time came.... Personally, I am happy enough with what I got! Why f@&* with that when it could end up much worse? :)

Still much happier I had the revision! :)
I am so happy I am not obsessing about my nose anymore. Sure, it's not perfect - it never was, but it's sooooo much better after the revision than after the first rhinoplasty. Still don't remember what it feels like to breathe 100% out of my right nostril, which is annoying, but the breathing is no worse than it was before the 2nd surgery - I'm just not sure it's any better yet at 5 months post-op.

Thanks for the update! I'm very happy for you!! Breathing still may improve some as swelling last a long, long, time.
Thanks! / Hope so!
Thank you for updatting! I'm so happy you're happy and able to move on from this nose saga:)
You look really pretty and so much younger than before the revision:)
Thanks! (LOL_ that was probably the swelling from the surgery that acted like botox and whatever else fillers and plumped me up!) LOL!!!
did the doctor tell you that your nostrils will be symetrical?
Nah.. He initially though they might be... then had me wear some "nose cones" in my nose for a while, which I hated.... They worked temporarily for changing nostril shape, but that was it...
Thanks for review, you look great!!!
Thanks!!! :)
Hi. Thank you for posting this review. I have actually been looking at getting a revision with dr Davis and have an appointment but not until April. My nose actually looks a lot like your pre op except that I have extremely thick skin. I went to another dr and he actually told me he wasn't sure if he could fix my nose and referred me to dr Davis. Hopefully he can help me. He seems skilled and qualified. I think he did a great job on your nose!
Thanks! I doubt you will be disappointed! HE takes his time on each case and takes it very personal as far as doing his best even if that means your surgery takes a little longer, etc. Dr. D is supposedly the best!!! Even the orderlies say that! LOL!
