I have my sugery date set! 3/9/2016! Patiently counting down the days and putting together the list of things that I'll need while recovering. I've requested my time off work and will be going in for my pre surgery consult in a couple of weeks. After interviewing doctors, I made my decision to go with Dr. Gilpin. My consult with him went very well and I've been impressed with his staff. The price quote was fair and I chose to go with a surgical center vs. a local hospital pavillion to help with cost. I'm planning on posting photos through my journey. ?

Hi, I am also turning 40 this year and decided to have rhinoplasty as well as chin augmentation (doesn't look like you need that one), and I am planning for 3/23. I am in San Diego and I'll set up a profile here soon, with pics,, but for now I clicked "Follow" you, I would love to see your results. All the best!!!

Hi! Good for you! I'll do my best to journal my experience. Sounds like we are both getting what we've always wanted for our birthdays. I wish you the best in your procedures. It seems like an eternity to wait for me but I'm trying to just take it one day at a time so I'll be prepared. Keep me posted, too!

Hi, I am going with Dr. Kolstad in San Diego, have you heard of him? He specializes in faces and has ENT background.

What the heck is it about turning 40 and nose jobs?? I'm turning 40 in October and have decided to do it too. I've already had a consult with one doc and am working on getting a consult set up with Dr. Gilpin soon. I look forward to reading more about your journey! I have so many thoughts and emotions running through me as I begin my own!
