All my bruising is gone, but I feel swelling when I wake up in the morning, and the tip still feels sensitive and numb.
My doctor didn't advise me to tape my nose, but he did ask that I do some nose compression exercises, 3 times a day for a 1 minute at a time. This is to keep the shape in place. The first week or so was a lil painful, but now it's not too bad.
I cannot believe again how long it took me to do this. I have no regrets, and all I tell people is that finally I just feel like myself.
Loving the profile!!
Look forward to the 1 month mark!
Provider Review
So far a great consultation. Will add more when I go for pre - op and surgery! Pre- Op was great. Got all the information I needed and a cooler of recovery goodies. Was clear with Dr. Elam. He's the real deal. Got a big hug from the staff. 2 weeks to go! Will add more after surgery. Got to surgery early. Nurses and staff again were awesome. Dr. Elam was excited to work on my nose!! As was I to go through with it. Surgery went smoothly and came back the following day to take the packing out. Dr Elam really cares about your well being. He asked that I come back for another day before he removes the cast so he can clean it up for me. Overall, feel very supported and comfortable knowing I will get the best result. 3 months since my surgery and I have a great natural result. Best decision I made was going with Dr. Elam. He gave me the nose I should have been born with!
