I liked my reflection pre-surgery.

Terrible. It was beautiful. Honestly, I liked my reflection pre-surgery. I was quite confident. I was only insecure in photographs at certain angles and just wanted to tweak my appearance to be more photogenic. And now I look strange, plastic, scary. I can’t stand my reflection now. I have severe social anxiety and have lost all of my confidence. I despise photos of myself. Every time I see an old photo of myself I cry. I can’t believe I couldn’t see how beautiful I was before. I’ve cried every day since surgery. I’m completely heartbroken. 
Damage from poor plastic surgery is irreversible, and I’m begging you. Please don’t fall for the clever marketing. No matter how accredited a doctor may seem, unfavorable results are possible and quite frequent. Please don’t go through with it. Dr. Jacono is not the type of doctor that is going to advise you from getting a procedure done. I did not need any work done. I wish I would have received a more professional and ethical recommendation.
He will exploit your insecurities and do anything you ask. He is in it for the money. I find him and his practice extremely disturbing. Runaway. See a therapist. Donate that money to charity. Love yourself. I would do pretty much anything to go back in time and opt-out of it. It’s my biggest regret.

Sorry your unhappy with your results. I'd love to see b&a photos for comparison and they also help others when researching. I know after this type of sx you don't see final results immediately as swelling can be an issue for a year or more. Good luck and thank you for sharing your experience with us on RS!

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I had a rhinoplasty years ago (in my 20's) and I looked distinctly odd for several months because it swelled up the area between my eyes and the 'wooden' feeling persisted for months. You don't mention when you got this done. Was it very recently?

I'm sooo sorry you've gone through this. Your review was powerful and helpful. Remember you're a beautiful person inside. And the comment beforehand--they're right, swelling should go down. Best wishes.

Don't put down someone else's experience. I Also had this experience and I'm almost a year post op. You might have had a good experience, but some people look much worse after a year or years of bad suffering and pain.
