Natural-Looking Rhinoplasty Results So Far – 2.5 Months Post-Op
WORTH IT
I am 2.5 months post-op. My dorsal hump was removed, and my tip was lifted and refined by Dr. B.
I did not feel pressured into anything during the consultation, either by the surgeon or his staff. The surgery experience itself was great. I chose twilight anesthesia, which Dr. B also preferred. I could hear the surgical team during the procedure, but I felt no stress and no pain.
After surgery, I had significant bruising and swelling on my face and cheeks, extending down to my neck, but it resolved fairly quickly. Some swelling under my eyes still remains, but I understand recovery is very individual.
So far, aesthetically, my results look very nice. My nose already looks cute and natural. I am still having a bit of difficulty breathing, but I understand this is pretty normal since I still have internal swelling, and Dr. B was not concerned at my checkup. There is also some slight asymmetry in my nostrils and infratip, which I hope will improve as the swelling continues to go down.
I understand that the final results will continue to change over the next year, or even years, and I hope they stay close to where I am now. We will see in a few years, but so far Dr. B nailed the shape and proportions, and the result looks very close to the mock-up photos.

Response from Dr. Buonassisi:
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and thoughtful review. We’re so happy to hear that you felt comfortable and well supported throughout your consultation and surgical journey with Dr. B and our team.
It’s wonderful to know that you’re already loving the shape and natural appearance of your nose at just 2.5 months post-op. Swelling, breathing changes, and small asymmetries can all be a normal part of the healing process at this stage, and as you mentioned, rhinoplasty results continue to refine gradually over many months.
We truly appreciate your patience and trust during recovery, and we’re thrilled that your results are aligning so closely with your goals and mock-up photos. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience — we look forward to continuing to support you throughout your healing journey!
