WORTH IT$3,500
I got my cast off yesterday and was SO SO relieved when I looked in the mirror. My nose is perfect, exactly what I wanted. I seriously could not be happier with my results, and now that I think about it, it was so silly for me to stress out about the whole thing! Everything feels back to normal again now.. my nose is still a little swollen so I still can't exactly breathe through it yet. When he took the cast off there was just a little discoloration but nothing makeup couldn't cover up. I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to do all this, and am very glad I went through with it!! I can finally say it was worth it in my review now!
I am very excited to see my nose to continue to heal for the next 6 months now!

One thing I regret is not doing much research before my surgery. I'm still looking at a lot of people's reviews and it seems like a lot of you guys were willing to travel across the country to get the doctor you wanted. My doctor was recommended by my dermatologist,bbut I'm sure he really had no idea on how well he did with rhinoplasty.. I kind of just jumped into it. All I have to now is keep hoping that when my cast comes off tomorrow I will love my new nose.
So I guess my advice to anyone looking to have this surgery is to do lots and lots of research before making a decision! Another piece of advice.. chapstick and bendy straws are key.
P.S. I will be posting after photos soon!

Hi Ann
Good luck with cast off. I had a revision on Monday and my tip looks upturned too. I think that is normal due to swelling and cast being on. Let us know how you heal. May

My tip actually isn't upturned I thought it just looked narrow from the cast.. but yeah I heard that's normal! I'm healing very well, a little discoloration and swelling. The doc said I will be able to breathe normally through my nose within two weeks. Nothing to complain about so far! :)

Ann93March 26, 2012
I'm just wondering, would the cast on my nose make it more pointed than it would normally look after the months to come? I heard about noses being upturned for the first few months but I'm not sure if the same concept apples to this. It's still hard to see what it will look like, I'm just praying and hoping and hopin and praying it will look as good as I hoped!

Hi there,
Don't be too surprised if your nose swells more once the splint comes off. It'll go back down again, though. Keep us posted. How are you feeling now?

Much better! I feel pretty much back to normal except the chapped lips and not being able to breathe out of my nose. And thanks for the heads up!
