Second Revision, Right Choice

This was my second revision and I needed it to be my last. It took me 3 years to decide on a doctor who I thought was worth the risk. The main selling point for me was the photos on Dr. Glasgold's website (and so I'll provide my own here). I was concerned with tip work, but I liked that he noticed every little detail that could be corrected - things other surgeons hadn't mentioned. He was also the only surgeon I met with who brought up using ear cartilage (instead of rib). I've since read ear cartilage is great for tip work, very malleable. I have a minor scar that's mostly faded on my inner ear; it's barely noticeable, but I wouldn't even mind if it was more prominent because my nose looks better than I ever hoped.
The hospital is standard, nothing fancy. I prefer being in a hospital to a private office surgical room, just in case of emergency.
After surgery I had a small bump on one side of the tip (you might notice in the photo). I originally thought it was cartilage, but Dr. G confirmed it was scar tissue (so not something he could have controlled). He gave me an injection and I wasn't expecting much, but the bump disappeared completely for a few months and is now smaller. I will probably get another, but I'm so happy no matter what. For the first time in my life I don't hate my nose. I'm no longer constantly worried about what other people are thinking when they look at me. It's a huge relief and I'm so grateful.
