Hello,
I have been wanting Rhinoplasty since about 17 yrs old. Now that I am older my neck area needs help as well. A double chin runs in my family and lucky for me Lol mine is the worse. I have always dreamed of having Rhino surgery but never thought it would be possible to have. I am now in the process of scheduling my surgery. Have sent the facility my deposit for a surgery date now just need for them to call me with the actual date available.

Hi. You look great. Great nose! I don't pay much attention to other features ;) One question. Was it 'worth it'. I mean, are you glad you did it??

Oh yes I am so glad I had this surgery! I always so self conscience of my nose and side profile. I hated it when someone would stand to the side of me. There was just nothing that could be done but surgery to help me feel better about my self.

Ok great!! That's exactly how I feel. It's dangerous driving a car if the passenger start looking over at me because I want to turn towards them!! So they don't see my profile.

Hi, I think you look beautiful! Dr Nayak is a highly skilled surgeon who has beautiful results. He did work on my eyes and I am also very happy. We are so fortunate to have such a terrific surgeon.

hi!! thank you for your comment! I don't have any advice for the neck lift but for your rhino I would greatly suggest having extra firm pillows to sleep with as you are supposed to sleep with your head elevated. Lots of frozen fruits for smoothies especially pineapple as it helps with bruising and swelling. My surgeon had me get qtips, hydrogen peroxide and neosporin to clean my incision site. Also bendy straws, lots of options for drinks like juice or gatorade. Also have food prepared or easy to make food. The first week I had smoothies, pasta, and ben and jerry's ice cream lol. I got a pill organizer too though I don't think it was completely necessary. My first night was pretty rough because I had packing in my nose which made it uncomfortable to drink water but I would wake up on the hour with a very very dry throat. I would highly recommend getting a little squirt bottle you can put water in to spray your throat. It really helped me out even though I only used it the first night. Good luck with your surgery!! Keep us posted!
