WORTH IT$4,000
So its 2.5 months post op and to look at my nose looks great, but once my picture is taken from a certain angle, my uneven nostrils are extremly noticeable. I have yet to see the surgeon (1 month to go), but when i do i will be asking for them to be fixed.

Day 12 & 13 post op
paicha1January 28, 2015
These last few mornings when I wake my nose feels like a rock. I believe its down to the surgery and the cold British weather.! NOT TO WORRY... my solution has been a mini face steam. Nothing a hot wet flannel cant sort out and my nose feels soft and tender again just in time for make-up and off to work I go.
Today (Day 13) the entrance to my nose is terribly itchy and the skin has started to flake.
I've used earbuds just to tame the itch, but mind you only the entrance to the nose and Vaseline all on the outside. It also helps to have your foundation and a pocket mirror to hand.
I'm still really happy with my results, however I've noticed the scars on either side of the nostrils have not yet closed entirely, but I'm nearly there and patience is my new best friend. I will upload a few photos over the next few days.

Hello, how long does someone need off work for this procedure. I am planning to have my nose done by the same Dr. Were you able to wash the inside of your nose at all? thanks in advance.

Hello, so after many years deciding and consulting surgeons I'm now two days post op. Yay!! I had my nose done by Dr Lahoud at Transform thanks to the reviews on realself forum.
?I'm a very confident person and love myself dearly but always thought my nose could do with just a little tweek.
?so here's my story...
?
?Day1:
?I went to the hospital as scheduled 8:30am. No in fact i arrived at 9:30 as the cab arrived late, stuck in traffic... Grrrr......!!!
?I was greeted politely and taken straight to my room (room6) where i proceeded to make myself feel comfortable as i was booked in with an overnight stay. Best decision ever!!
To kill time the nurses come in and out of your room asking questions, writing reports which gives you a chance to really bond and get to know them. Then the anesthiests and later Dr Lahoud pays you one last visit & goes over your procedure.
After op:
I felt normal no pain at all i was just a little tired and could do with the rest.
My throat & lips were dry, but then i was prepare and brought bottled water and lip balm. About an hour after being brought back to my room i was eating well but only small bites for fear of ripping the stitches. This process continued for about 5days.
Day 2,3,4
I listened to the advice and stayed in bed for these days. I had a wonderful support network who made me dinners and lunches which was fab. Thanks girls xxxx... I had little swelling and no black eyes thanks to arnica30c (taken prior and during op).
I slept using my flight pillow which was heaven sent.
Day 5: anxious to take my cast off, minor itching & I'm really hoping the bridge is as slim as possible.
My nose looks a little piggish and now my nerves are settling in.
Day7 Cast Day:
New cavendish street 2:30pm
The stitches came out which never hurt at all, some reviews really got me worked up & i even brought a numbing cream with me (silly girl).
The cast came off and Wow I'm in love with my new look. It's everything I've ever wanted and more.
I would definitely recommend Dr Pascal Lahoud.
