I had been self-conscious about my nose on and off...
Although many people say afterwards that they wish they had done in sooner, I'm actually glad in hindsight that I waited this long to have rhinoplasty, for a few reasons:
(1) I'm far enough along in my career that I was able to afford it without feeling guilty: Although I say the procedure was "worth it," it would not have been going into debt for. Cosmetic surgery is a luxury and there are more important things to take care of first, like paying off student loans, etc.
(2) I was old enough that I had come to accept my old nose and myself as a whole: Although I didn't love my nose as it was, I could have lived with it the rest of my life without a problem. I was able to think of the surgery as a nice-to-have and not a must-have, and was not under the mistaken impression that it would change my life drastically.
(3) I didn't rush into surgery and took my time choosing the right doctor: I think that if I had pursued rhinoplasty earlier in life, I would have been less diligent about choosing a doctor. Choice of surgeon is absolutely critical and I'm glad I did a lot of research over a number of years before deciding.
I will follow up with some before and after photos. It's a little embarrassing to do so, but the photos shared by others were extremely helpful to me in my own decision process.
Provider Review
Dr. Most is a true professional. He is honest, straightforward, and -unlike some of the other doctors I consulted with- is not a salesman. It is evident that he takes great care to foster realistic patient expectations and to make conservative changes that improve appearance without compromising function. The office is comfortable and convenient to visit, and the staff are all very nice people, especially Mia, who made me feel at ease before my procedure. Some reviewers seem to have been bothered by the residents/fellows, etc., that follow the doctor around, but I was not in the least; it is Stanford, after all.
