I struggle with how I feel about my results daily. As time has gone by, my nose has transformed dramatically. The bump on my bridge has started to reappear, the tip of my nose droops further down and my nose over all has bent to one side. I've become even more self conscious than I was pre op.

I agree it does droop with smiling and also I see flaring and the base is wide. The profile is fab!

I know :( love my profile but that's about it. I recall mentioning the drooping and the width being a concern of mine before the surgery. I wish I had known that they weren't realistic results for me, I wouldn't have mind spending more for what I wanted.

I feel your frustration. I had a revision but still not very happy. Spoke to my surgeon about it just so he knows my concerns. He offered to fix the issues. You might want to seek another opinion. Please keep us posted.

Hi Hun, I see what you mean about the tip dropping :( I had my nose done by Dr Grigoryants and omg!! What a drastic difference! My nose was much worse than yours and you should see how cute my nose is now I couldn't be more pleased! I'm right at a year and it's soo small and cute if your thinking about a revision I would HIGHLY recommend him his work is litter ally mind blowing! You can check out my results under proud to be a Grigoryants girl. You look beautiful ! ;)

Wow, you had beautiful results. Dr. G did an amazing job! I'm meeting with my doctor in May hoping he can help, but in my last few visits he didn't spend too much time with me.

So I absolutely love my profile... until I smile that is! Recently I started noticing that the tip of my nose droops like it did pre-op and its beginning to really bother me to the point where I'm self conscious of my smile now.
