Simulation I did myself - "before and after"
GogoanimeAugust 18, 2014
Some simulations I did before and after, I want a more refined nose with no dropping tip, more nostril show and no hump on the bridge. No hanging tip when smiling. See the simulations I did and please comment if you think the results look natural/good.
I will show these pictures to my surgeon so he can visualize the outcome.

Booked surgery with Dr. Adam in December 2014
GogoanimeAugust 11, 2014
I decided to choose Dr. Adam in the end mainly because he adressed the issues that concerned me, the nosetip that dropps when I smile, humpremoval, tipreshaping and nostril correction (which I know he can fix based on many photos I have seen on a private facebook group that consists of his patients and another review on realself). I also have noticed that he isn´t too concerned with keeping some ethnicity and mind, and since I want an improved profile + no nostip hanging when I smile I feel confident in choosing him as a surgeon.

Hey maybe I am being super silly but I want to share this anyway. I really liked the girl on heres nose by Adam and commented and she gave me her instagram and now it is changed and a older woman on twitter uses that handle. I know its silly but it scared me! I am starting to be so paranoid now that everything is fake :( i dont even know. Have you spoken to any of his previous patients?
August 11, 2014
Yes, I have seen the results of his patients and I have that girl's instagram whom I am still following. If you arent choosing him as a surgeon you dont have to worry about that.

Ok I was not trying to be rude I was trying to be helpful? And I might be choosing him that's why I was asking I just wanted reassurance to make a big decision as I had decided until that happened. your comment came across a bit rude. I was simply asking as I was scared. I thought this community was supposed to be supportive? Don't know why you would take it personal.

I didn't take it personally, she has changed her instagram name to remain anonymous which I respect, I just thought it was strange you talked about twitter since a twitter account has nothing to do with instagram. If you want her instagram you can message me privately on realself.

To answer you question, Shah suggested for me an osteotamy and alar base reduction. So basically, reducing the width of my nose. I think Shah believes in keeping things natural and ethnic. I mean if you're South Asian, a Nordic nose would probably look a little off. You want your nose to suit you. But what you asked for seems like it would be achievable (lessening the droopiness and removing the hump). It might not look exactly like Doutzen's nose, but yeah.

Also on camera, it is harder to tell. Your nose doesn't look TOO droopy in the pics. Sometimes, we look completely different in pictures.

i understand, but there are plenty of other pics of me where my nosetip looks signifcantly more droppy.
August 18, 2014
Yes it is true that he wants to keep things more natural. The reason I think I would suit in a more refined upturned nose is because I had more of a nordic looking nose wheb I was younger and my nosetip is significantly lower down than what my nose was a couple of years ago. Plus the nosetip will dropp with age, so a surgeon that doesnt adress that wont give me any change... I know ny nose wont look like Doutzen but I think her nose gives the surgeon an idea of what I want.

Skype update about Dr. Anil Shah - contradictory statements
GogoanimeAugust 10, 2014
On Friday the 9th of August I had a skype conversation with Dr. Anil Shah. He was very informative - that there is a risk that a nosejob can make breathing worse. He said he liked my nose the way it is and that I have to think long and hard before having a nosejob, since he felt the nose was already good (he liked the length of it + the bump). He said that if I have breathing problems because of my nose it might be because of some allergy and that I should try nose-spray from the nearest drugstore. Moreover, he stated that he only wanted to remove my hump on the bridge with a closed rhinoplasty, at the same time he also stated that it is the hump on my bridge that gives the "illusion" of me having a short nose. I think those statements are contradictory, since he thinks it is the bump that makes my nose look short, so removing the hump only would make my nose look longer. I asked him during the skype conversation if he would remove anything on the tip, as my nosetip drops too much when I smile. Which is very evident in many other pictures as well. He completely disagreed and said that I would regret it if a surgeon would make my nose shorter, and compared me with other Indian ethnic patients that they are normally not satisfied if their noses are shorter.
I am in fact kind of disapointed since I can´t pay that much for a nosejob to go overseas for a surgeon (Dr. Anil Shah) that would ONLY remove my hump, then the MAIN problem with my nose - that the nosetip dropps when I smile would still remain. It is also extremely evident compared to many other patients of his on realself that I have a worse before looking nose than them, see attached photos of model patient he performed a nosejob on in the gallery above. But I guess I am not white enough to deserve a barbie looking nose. That´s what I felt after the skype conversation. I am angry, sad and frustrated now.
