I have nothing new to report really. I haven’t been back to see Dr. Lam for any follow ups, I just wanted to share some 3 year post surgery pics. I believe that this nose that I have now will be my final result. My nose is still really wide when I smile but I’ve always had a wide nose so it’s nothing new Lol. My swelling in my tip appears to be finally all gone. I still have scars at the incision sites but that’s probably only because I didn’t take care of them or put any type of ointment or cocoa butter on them like I should have. I may book an appointment wit Dr. Lam in 2019 just to check in. If I do, I’ll be sure to post an update. Happy Holidays everybody!

I'm a woman in my 50s, and have been self conscious about my nose since I was a kid! I was teased unmercifully in school, and as an adult, when I look in the mirror, I know I'm beautiful, but the world says different. I've married & divorced, have beautiful kids, but as I'm growing older and losing facial volume, my big noz is even more pronounced. Sure, I date, and some men find me attractive, but I know I'd feel more confidence & have a more successful dating life if I fixed it. I read your entire story, beginning to most recent, and I'm so motivated and encouraged by your results!! I haven't seen many like Dr Lam with natural looking results. Many look like black barbies, and I don't want YHT look. I actually LOVE the overall look of my AA nose, I just want it to b smaller and cuter. Wish me luck, an thanks again. :)Xoxo

I haven't updated in over a year so I figured I would post some updated pictures. I missed my 2 year follow up appointment last month so I've had no other injections since my last post. The only update that I truly have is that this summer I did notice that my nose looked noticible smaller/swelling decreased. This was more than 1.5 years after my surgery so I guess it really does take time for swelling to go down with thick skin. Merry Christmas everybody!
