I had a bulbous tip that hooked down. Along with a prominent chin, it always made my profile appear witchy to me. The initial consult gave me a lot of information about what I could hope to achieve. I wanted a supported and refined tip without excessive narrowing that could look "pinched". Dr. Cohen understood and his artistry (he also is a painter) in his work showed that he did not do "cookie-cutter" noses and his other work did not have his patients looking "done." I am now three days post-op with bruising and inflammation. I will update as things progress.

The first picture is Day One and I was thinking "not so bad!" The second picture shows Day Three after the Bruise Fairy showed up! It didn't hurt more, but it looked really bad.

Weeks two and three

Week Two: I stayed down the first week. I was reminded not to bend over because a huge pressure would whoosh toward my face and hurt when I did. The outside splint was replaced with another type six days after surgery.

Week Three: the second

Week Three

The splints are off! I love the result, but this is not the nose it will be a year from now after it heals. I was shown how to tape my nose at night and around the house, and how to gently stroke it (massage) four times a day to keep down swelling and help prevent scar tissue from forming under the skin. Most of the pain is gone, but bending forward still feels like a bad idea.
