Pre-op - consultation went great, very confident doing surgery with him!

It’s been 3 months since my rhinoplasty and wow it went by so fast! The swelling in my nose hasn’t gone down completely yet, but overtime I have noticed it slightly going down. My swelling from the front view of my nose has visibly gone down, it looks more “skinnier” now! Comparing it to my old nose (from the front view), i noticed my new nose makes my face look more “snatched”. WHICH I LOVE!! However, from the side view my nose is still visibly pointy and big. Although, in different angles my nose looks really good, just not from the side view in my opinion. After 2 months, I was able to work normally again! During my 1-2 months after having the rhinoplasty, anytime I felt shocked, scared, or even just picking up something heavy, it gave me a tingling sensation in my nose, which felt kinda uncomfortable, but now my nose is fine and back to normal! Other than that, I haven’t had any issues with my nose. I have gotten so many compliments on my new nose, everyone thinks my nose looks so good, and i was told my new nose suites my face better :D. Overall, I’m in love with my new nose and so so happy with the results and i’m glad I chose BRAUN for my surgery. They knew exactly what I wanted and now I can live my life without having the feeling of being insecure about my nose! I can’t wait to see how my nose looks in a year!

It is finally my 1 month! My nose has swelled down a bit from the front, but it’s still noticeable pointy from the side view. I’m happy with the results and eager to see what it looks like after a year! I hadn’t had any issues breathing (and to be honest I felt like my breathing got even better after the rhinoplasty, which amazes me) and the scars are still there, but not too noticeable. There’s still a slight discomfort if I accidentally hit my nose (mostly my nose tip), but everywhere else feels fine, no discomfort whatsoever. The swelling has come down a lot more (except the nose tip), but the tip of my nose still feels very hard and looks very pointy. Overall I still function normally, which is great :D. During my 2nd-4th week, I was pretty scared that my nose was going to look big and pointy forever (due to the swelling), but once I hit my 1 month, I could see that some parts of my nose slightly swelled down. The Braun staff has been so helpful to me the whole time and I appreciate that.

It’s been 4 weeks since my rhinoplasty! After surgery I felt no pain whatsoever, NOT UNTIL I had to go to sleep… My first night was so rough, I couldn’t sleep and my face was puffing up so much.Other than that, the pain was a 2/10, I felt more uncomfortable because I couldn’t stop my snot from coming out and my face felt frozen. I was very excited to take off my cast! Once my cast was removed though, i wasn’t too happy with the result. My nose was so swollen and looked so different :( it was for sure something I would have to get use to. Although, my doctor informed me that it can take months and even a year or two for my nose to completely swell down, soo I will be patient and hope for the best! Once it hit the two week mark, the swelling around my face has gone down (i didn’t get much bruising, my face was just really puffy), my face still felt pretty “frozen” (my nose didn’t move naturally with face, so i looked kinda scary haha), and looked really big. My nose is really big honestly!! But i trust the process!! By my 4th week, my nose is kinda moving naturally with my face, still doesn’t feel like my nose yet, i haven’t had any issues breathing, swelling hasn’t gone down yet, and my nose still big haha. Overall i’m still happy that i went to bruan for my rhinoplasty, i feel more confident with my new nose and eager to see how my nose looks after the swelling has gone down! Thank you to my doctor and all nurses that have been so helpful and nice to me!
