I’ll post photos soon, but two months out and I’m even more in love with my nose. I have a feeling that 3 months in will be the sweet spot for me, and the tip will be a lot less swollen.
A good note for anyone getting this surgery, that I read before I got mine - NO ONE WILL NOTICE BUT YOU. So be prepared. I didn’t want to tell my parents because it might make them sad, but knew I would admit to it if they noticed. I’ve visited them twice now since the surgery and they have never blinked an eye. It’s almost a little disappointing, haha.
However, I have gotten tons of compliments from my family (my mom, my sister, best friends, etc) on how I look. I’m pretty sure people think I look better these days because of “how I do my makeup” and no one knows that I got an actual nose job. However, I think the results are dramatic and practically stare at pictures of myself every day. So happy I did this.

Day 14 - LOVING my new nose!
Straightforward961767October 4, 2020
My face is STILL a bit swollen. And I had a popped blood vessel in my eye on Day 4, and it’s STILL showing a bit but we’re almost there.
But since I’m at the two week mark, I wanted to say that I really love my nose. Even though I feel like the tip is super swollen still, my nose has become exactly the way I dreamed it would be with this surgery. He really fixed my “problem” areas exactly. I feel like in just two more weeks, my tip will look even better - but I’m already so happy with it!! I feel so much more photogenic and confident in my appearance now.
I’ll add as a note to anyone going into it - it wasn’t until Day 11 that I felt like I could work again on a photoshoot (I’m an actress/model). My face was so swollen for a long time and made me look SO weird. By Day 13 I felt like I could take a picture of myself and post it to my Story, and my friends wouldn’t notice much my face looking a little different. I feel like my face swelling lasted longer than most people report. I thought I could get back to work on Day 9 but nope - I looked like a puffer fish those days.
All is well now though, but my upper lip area is VERY stiff. I can’t smile as big as I used too, but it’s not too problematic. I’ve read that it takes 2-3 months for the stiffness there to go away, so I’m being patient on that.
Bruising is almost completely gone but I do have a little bit of yellowing under my eyes still. Was tough to cover up the bruising with makeup until Day 12

Your nose looks amazing! I have the exact same dislikes that you had about your nose. My nose widens when I smile from my cheek, and it makes my nose appear long and droopy. Have you noticed any improvement from reducing your nostril size?? I have a consult in 2 months!

Yes!! That was what I wanted too. He definitely cut a little bit of each nostril away making them smaller. I almost wish he could have done more, but it was the max he could do. My nose being more fine tuned overall though, made my nostrils not as bad looking anymore. They still spread out a little when I smile, but my nose looks so great still

How much did he charge
November 29, 2020
$10,600 is what he originally quoted me, but I talked him down to $10,300

Day 11

Sharing this photo so you can see the nice slope that’s developed. My face is still puffy and doesn’t look like “me” quite yet, but I think l get there in 2-3 days. My nose is coming in wonderfully though!
