Best decision. I cannot thank Dr. Kosins enough
ORIGINAL POST
best decision
Versatile982298July 16, 2020
Procedure tips included :)
I was under the pretense that I had to "earn" my rhinoplasty procedure.
"When I lose weight..."
"My face might change, so I should lose weight first then I can earn it. ."
I wish I had known that getting a nose job would completely alter how I felt about myself.
In fact, having that mindset was the exact opposite of how things actually went. I have since been more inspired and encouraged in making the other changes. I'm constantly getting compliments about how happy I look or that I'm glowing. You can see it in my eyes in the before and after photos! Aesthetically speaking, it's improved my appearance so much, but moreover it has changed how I feel about myself. Please do not wait.
Dr. Kosins... you are nothing short of a professional, kind, and mindful artist/doctor. He listened to my wants of what I was looking to achieve. He gave me everything I was hoping for: smoother, smaller, thinner, and straight.
Dr. Kosins followed up with me on the evening of my surgery on his drive home. I disturbed him during his dinner on a Friday night, always getting back to me with any concerns. I'm sorry, but I do not know a single doctor that is so attentive and goes out of their way to personally check-in. Dr. K, you deserve all the (good) wine in the world.
You are truly a master of your work.
As for the procedure, I added a photo that shows me 6 days post-op.
SIX!
No swelling, no bruising.
How, like how?!
Dr. Kosins, that's how.
Pain pills are great, but have you guys tried ice? It's pretty cool (pun intedend). Ice will be your new best friend and your greatest help. I used it continuously and became a professional pirate, watching things with one eye as I switched sides.
I also tried to sleep/sit upright as much as possible. I made the Great Wall of China out of pillows and I truly believe this helped tremendously with swelling and any nasal discharge.
Unless you're into immediate head tension and that's your thing, please don't pick anything up. Not even your dog poop.
I tried to Matrix my way down to my phone charger cable. Just don't.
After day 3, everything will be much better from there.
A big great (virtual) hug and thank you to Judy. She will be your daily check-in nurse. She will be your answers, your reassurance, your explanations. Judy is helpful and comforting, an immediate boost of encouragement and relief to any concerns. Thank you for treating me equally as a friend and patient.
From day one, I was only treated with professionalism and kindness.
The surgery center the same... I'm certain I held and petted "Nurse Pretty Hands" as he was saving my life by spoon-feeding me ice chips post-op.
I cannot thank you all enough and cherish all of you through this whole process. I am beyond grateful and please do not wait!
Enjoy your gauze mustache.
