Hi everyone!
I am scheduled to have a turbinate reduction, septoplasty with rhinoplasty and breast augmentation done on July7th! It has been really enlightening following the recoveries of so many brave ladies on here; I figured I should post too. I am going to post pictures of my face before and then after on here so you can see the progress.
The biggest reason I am having it done now is because my nasal breathing has gotten worse over the past 4 years. It’s to the point that I don’t feel enough airflow through my left nostril and I have to always breathe out of my mouth.
While I am there I figured I should have my breasts corrected after the damage from breast feeding 2 children. This way it’s one recovery period so it doesn’t interfere with work as much.
I guess my biggest fears at this point are getting a bad infection like MRSA (I work at a hospital and am around it all the time) or ending up with an undesired result. Not even an okay result but a nose that is not what’s in my mind. This is a big deal for me and I go through periods of being scared, happy and nervous or anxious all in a day! It is less than a week away, and today I am excited! I will keep everyone updated ?
Have a happy Fourth of July!

Make sure your doctor specializes in Rhinoplasty (one of the most intricate, difficult of plastic surgery procedures)! I can't stress this enough.
Being a nurse, at least you know going in what the risks are...that said, you are likely to have a great outcome and I hope you'll come back and let us know how it goes!
