WORTH IT
Iv always sort of had a wog nose. And I dunno for the past year or so I been seeing the most amazing noses on Instagram etc.
I thought you kno what I'm going to do it.
About 5 years ago I had a breast augmentation an got the most amazing result I couldn't be happier with them.
I decided I wanted the same Dr who did my breast to do my nose, after all I had a great result with the breast so why would it be any different this time.
I had an idea of the features I liked and wanted incorporated in my new nose. My surgeon did want to refrain from doing the osteotomy of the nasal bones but one of the features I wanted was a narrowing of those bones for a more feminine looking bridge.
I actually had a bunch of dot points of the features I wanted for my new nose, I can't say at any one point did I really think about my overall breathing at all. I really didn't all I could think about was a perfect nose that looked perfect cosmetically. My surgeon didn't really explain to much about the overall risk of the actual features I wanted in my new nose. All that was said is that there's a 15% risk of something going wrong in all rhinoplasty procedures which is quite a high risk compared to other cosmetic procedures out there. I guess maybe we could of gone into more detail about the over all breathing function but we didn't. An all I wanted was a small cute nose.
I had the surgery on the 8th of June 2021, everything went fine I handled it like a boss no head ache nothing came home an looked after a day old puppy. So i the technique used was amazing I did have bruising but nothing like I was expecting. 3rd day post OP i hit a major depression. Just kept asking myself why I did this my nose was fine before it worked completely fine why did I do this it's so up turned like a pig it actually looked like a Michael Jackson. I just couldn't believe what I had done. Since the 3rd day it's been a struggle everyday I wake up depressed but as the day progresses I snap out of it an forget about it.
Im now on POST OP day 10 an I can say I am so much happier when looking in the mirror it's honestly crazy how much your nose changes from day 1 to day 10. An it's so hard to think it'll change but it eventually does an start to just look normal.
My cosmetic result is amazing. I can't be happier with it I still look like me but just with a cute feminine tweak here an there. The only thing I can honestly winge about is I really wish I put more thinking time in the over all function of my breathing .... so breathing normally is fine but if really try an breathe in hard my nostrils close, the thing is my nostrils were very narrow to begin with an maybe my surgeon hadn't had much experience with long narrow nostrils like mine. Like I said breathing normal is fine but inhaling hard an basically making them close on purpose they don't do it unless I try to make them do it.... so yea I gusss u can't have your cake an eat it too..
I am 10 days post OP which is I kno way to early to judge anyway I'm hoping by a full year the swelling inside tip an columella etc will continue to unswell.. other then that I suppose I can look to fix it eventually but isn't a major thing I can still breathe.
Will post updates as we go :)

DR PAUL NASSIF, WASNT MY SURGEON. I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THAT CONFIDENTIAL. So I have used DR PAUL NASSIF AS I HAVE SEEN HIM ON TV
I’m not sure why it automatically links a dr to your review but I don’t actually want anyone to kno where I got my surgery done unless it’s spoken about in private conversation (inbox)
