Rhinoplasty
Consultation
A year ago, I made the decision to undergo rhinoplasty. After careful selection of doctors and studying reviews, my choice fell on
Dr. Sam Most. He turned out to be not only a professional but also a true artist, with a sense of aesthetics and the ability to create a harmonious image. During the consultation, I was shown an approximate result in Photoshop, we discussed my preferences, and I got an idea of what my future nose would look like. It was incredibly convenient and helped me understand the expected outcome.
Overall, the doctor dedicated enough time to me, answered all my questions, and provided support at every stage.
Pre-operation
Before the operation and after, I was informed about the necessary actions and care, provided with detailed instructions on how to prepare, and how to take care of my nose after the surgery, which greatly facilitated the process.
Post-operation
Recovery after the operation was much easier than I expected. There were almost no bruises, the swelling quickly subsided, and I returned to normal life. My nose looks perfect, natural, as if it had always been that way. A straight bridge, symmetrical nostrils, minimal scar, you can only notice it under a microscope :) In general, this exceeded all my expectations. And now I feel confident and happy with my new look, it has greatly influenced my self-esteem and overall psychological state.
Challenges to Expect
The most difficult part was the inability to breathe through the nose. But literally after a week, the cast and special splints were removed, and then my nose finally breathed, but sometimes the swelling made itself felt and the nose periodically got stuffed up, which is also normal, don't worry. Within a month, this problem disappeared.
(Advice: drink more water and moisturize your lips, then breathing through your mouth will be easier)
If you are considering rhinoplasty, consider a few things:
• It is normal to have swelling and bruising, they completely disappear within a few months.
• Swelling may increase when consuming hot drinks and taking hot showers or baths. This is also normal.
• The strongest swelling will be after removing the cast.
Outcome
I want to express my immense gratitude to the doctor and his team for their professionalism, care, and support throughout the entire process. I never felt abandoned because the doctor and his team were always in touch with me, ready to help and answer any questions. I entrusted myself to them and it paid off. I highly recommend their services to anyone considering rhinoplasty.
