Hi everyone,
so sorry for not being able to update sooner or as much. I guess you can say I've been really lucky b/c everything seems to be going great! I have my follow up appointment next week. I'm still a little swollen and my right side is still numb but my left side if gotten most of the feeling back (which is so strange!)
I've attached more pics....I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday...now it's just back to work for me. Speaking of work, a co-worker saw me the first week I went back to work and I was still a little bruised. He wasn't able to tell any difference in my appearance other then he thought I bumped into something b/c I had a small bruise under my eye. When I told him it was from getting a nose job be looked at me and said "there's no way...I would never guess in a million years you had your nose done!"...he was impressed so much that he asked me for my doctors info b/c his daughter was looking to get a nose job too! :)
I'm not gonna lie, I still feel like it looks a little bulbous (especially the tip) but I'm thinking that it's pretty much still swollen and I know that that takes times to heal and go away so I guess it's still time to keep playing the waiting game!!!

hi again

hi everyone,
so sorry it took me awhile to come back with an update. holidays with my family are crazy (I come from a big family) Happy New Year to everyone! :)
so my nose is still swollen and hard to the touch (on the right side lol..so weird I know) but overall I'm doing great. it's really weird b/c I'm afraid to clean out my nose in fear that i'll remove a stitch or something so my breathing has been a little difficult. when I do get the nerve to just stick a q-tip in there I'm really careful and once I do it my breathing becomes way better so I guess I just have to suck it up and just clean it out carefully.
so far I've visited family and NO ONE has noticed any change!!!! its great b/c I didn't want a completely different nose...just for the profile to be more feminine and I think that's what my surgeon was able to give me.
so that's it really. I go back jan 22nd for my follow up but so far to good. I will say that my nostrils are little different but honestly they never were the same even before the surgery and its not a big different so it doesn't bother me a bit. I'm just wondering if I'm still swollen (I'm sure I am) and can't wait for the end result to be here...patience has never been my strong suit lol! :)

I love your profile. It's exactly how I hope mine will turn out after revision. Did you have a full revision, or did your surgeon only work on your tip?

Hi, Thanks! :) I actually had a full revision. He had to take down my bridge ever so slightly (I had a small bump which you can see in one of my pictures attached) and he fixed the tip so it wasn't so long.

Hi,
I actually think you're nose is really nice :) but I understand that you ultimately have to be happy with it...have to revisited your doctor yet? if so, what will he do to help? looking at the pictures you posted I do see that it's gotten slightly bigger since the cast was removed....maybe it's scar tissue??? I'm no doctor but I've heard of that happening a lot...hopefully its something simple and you won't have to go through the whole procedure and recovery again...lol! sleeping on my back was the hardest part for me! keep us posted! love the new hair :)
