9 months post-op rhinoplasty at 55 - hated my nose since I was 16
ORIGINAL POST
Rhinoplasty at 55
WORTH IT
I have hated my nose since I was 16.
My cars always had to be tinted, I would never let someone look at me sideways. Pictures always had to be taken at the right angle.
I finally became financially stable that I could afford it.
I decided for my 55 birthday I was going to take the plunge and get a rhinoplasty.

Thank you, I am still swollen on the tip of my nose. Im seeing my surgeon in a couple of weeks. I think he is going to give me the steroid injection.

One year post op. The tip is still swollen, off to see Dr Kolenda next week. I may need an injection of steroid.
Enjoying my summer driving with the windows down. I would do it all over. It’s totally worth it!

Surprising that the tip is swollen one year post-op, but perhaps it's not uncommon.
In any case, you look great!

Congratulations on having had your surgery! Are you feeling fully recovered now?
