Glad I Tried It
I got a non-surgical rhinoplasty with Dr. Drew Schnitt because 1. I wanted to make sure I would be able to live with a change if I pursued a rhinoplasty and 2. His skill set and educational background.
The staff at the facility is really nice. It’s very clean and the treatment rooms are calming.
About the experience: I was fully fully numbed and didn’t feel a thing. Dr. Drew was very precise and explained everything to the NP who was also in the room. He took his time which is super important. It was nice to hear why he avoided specific areas, etc. it was an educational experience for me too.
About the results: the results were beautiful. I fully enjoyed the results. I would say it lasted over a year. The healing process was interesting. The tip of my nose was so sensitive I couldn’t even wipe it without a tinge of pain but it went away within 2 weeks. Minor swelling.
I had a good experience but I realized after that I didn’t do my research and saw learned real risks of this service. Although it’s rare, it’s important to know what to expect. Make sure you choose a provider skilled provider (Dr. Schnitt was great!)
Overall I’m happy I did it because seeing how much I liked the change convinced me I needed to do a rhinoplasty not only for the aesthetic but also because the aesthetic wasn’t enough for me - I needed a functional nose.
Why I said “not sure”
- if you just want a temporary change to try it out, it’s worth it!
- if you are thinking of getting a rhinoplasty but would rather do this because it’s “cheaper,” just know eventually you’ll spend what you would’ve spent on a rhinoplasty over the years. So if you’re using this as a long term alternative, financially it’s not worth it.
