feeling better than her expected just just 8 hours after my rhinoplasty revision! YAY! Think it was worth it. Fingers crossed

It’s hard for me to not be too critical and actually see positive results, but when i do a side-by-side. I can really tell the difference!! I am still very swollen, but i Think when I’m all healed, I’m going to LOVE the result. So glad I went with this doctor and glad I decided to take the risk and have surgery. Now I’m just wishing I would’ve done it 10 years ago!

Yesterday my eyes were so swollen and bruised and the pressure was not comfortable. Today the swelling has gone down a lot and the bruising is turning yellow. Just trying to be patient each day. It’s too hard to tell with the cast and all of the bandages how the actual nose looks.. The profile looks good, but again, it’s just too hard to tell. I keep thinking it’s super crooked & weird looking, but the doctor said definitely don’t try to judge it until some of the swelling goes down. Patience will be the hardest part now.

Had my rhinoplasty revision today with Dr. Cochran in Dallas Texas. So far, so good!! Honestly, my ear hurts more than my nose from where they took the cartilage graft
I had two rhinoplasties many years ago! My nose seemed to have been changing over the last few years, so i decided to take the plunge and get it fixed. I was TERRIFIED after having the first two that weren’t good. Seemed like my nose wasn’t ever “supported” when they did the original surgeries. It dipped at the end and i had a “ball” look at the end of my nose. It was so crooked and nostrils were not even. Plus I had discoloration at the end. I have been SCARED to death and questioning my decision, but glad I did!! It’s only been several hours, so I’ll update more later in the weeks to come...
