Rhinoplasty

Hello! ???????? I’ve been an active member of the RealSelf community for a while now since 2014, reading reviews on Rhinoplasty for as long as I can remember, even before joining this website. Ever since I was 14 years old I remember hating my nose. I never really had an issue with the front view but seeing it from a profile was a different story. I won’t sit here and say that my nose was broken or suffered traumatic injury, it’s just as simple as the fact that I was born with a very masculine nose that I felt did not fit my feminine features. I have what one would consider an aquiline or Roman nose, or simply even a projected dorsal hump. Like I said, being younger I was bullied a bit as my nose projected so far and was quite unaesthetic. I’ve always had issues breathing as well and my Sinuses always seem congested or blocked and I get the worst migraines from the pressure that builds up. This is something I always wanted to fix as well. By the time I was 21, I was still fixated on getting rhinoplasty but it seemed unattainable financially. I was no longer bullied at this point, but I did feel like my nose was just not a good fit on my face. I avoided taking pictures of myself , and any picture taken of me really magnified how big and crooked my nose was. I was always embarrassed of how I looked from the side and avoided showing that side to anybody. I wear glasses so I would always slide them down to cover the bump on my nose so no one could see it. I would obsesses and spend hours a day on RealSelf and other websites researching nose jobs and before and afters. I would even take a sharpie and draw on my nose on how I would ideally like it to be shaped and look at it from all angles.. my obsession became so unhealthy it would keep me up all night and make me so sad that I couldn’t afford it. However I am now about to be 27 years old and I’ve changed my lifestyle completely. I’m in a relationship with a man that I truly love and he supports me in every which way, so I’m not doing this to be more attractive to men, in fact I get told I’m a beautiful girl very often. I am in the service industry and I get complimented all the time on my appearance, but I just do not feel beautiful with my nose. I am in amazing shape, and now that I have healthy weight to me, my nose doesn’t seem as big as it does crooked. The hump on it just seems so projected and throws my whole face off balance. Being someone that’s always looking for balance and a pleasing aesthetic.. I believe my face should reflect the same. I am in a good place in my life and find myself attractive, Confident, strong and financially stable enough to afford this change. I just want to be able to take a picture of myself without being ashamed and have take candid pictures taken by my boyfriend or family that I don’t hate. I just want to feel as beautiful as people tell me I am. I truly believe my nose is too masculine for me and ideally I just want to have the bump removed and tip more refined. I had made a consultation with Robert ciardullo In New York in March and was very impressed by how natural his work was. Most of his procedures are rhinoplasties and his work speaks for itself. My biggest fear is having a cookie cutter ski slope nose which I know would look terrible on my face , but his work confirms that his results are more natural. After a few weeks on consideration I decided to book the surgery .It was either now or never being that i am off work and out of school right now. So I am getting a rhino/septioplasty on June 12. It is less than 2 days away but I’m so excited and bought all my supplies and am now just waiting.. If anybody can give me any advice or what to expect I would greatly appreciate it!
