6 months

So 8 months out- had my surgery and about 2 months ago had my revision which was nothing major. I am extremely pleased with my nose with exception to my nose slightly to my left due to my tip being a bit crooked. But I either way compared to what I had to work with before which I hated. I am extremely grateful. I have complete feeling in my nose and nothing hurts whatsoever lol thankgod. So been doing good. I love the way I look. :)

Snapped a few photos I have tons but no longer on my phone. I went in for a revision two days ago since a bone that was suppose to be broken popped out so my Doctor corrected it. Revision was not out of my pocket and it was quick. Had the follow up appointment next day and will wear a splint for another day. To total 4 days including the day of the surgery. Minimal swelling and was prescribed pain meds but have not taken any so I'm doing good

I want to apologize for taking forever to update- Yesterday was cast removal! Got in the car and was barely able to smell the cherry scent in my car- amazing. Mind you, i was able to breathe in and out with some difficulties but still some flow :) Anyway, i was extremely excited to have that damn thing removed. Went in and Sara, the nurse, seated me and began cleaning me up. Dr Kearny came and said lets get this thing off- he put his hands on the sides of the cast and pulled- i swear i felt my nose was coming off! i really dont know the procedure to thing but damn that sucked! My eyes watered continuously and finally when he realized it wasnt going to come off from him pulling he asked the nurse for a Q-tip. So wasnt too happy about that, i wish he wouldve started with something alittle less harsh but whatever it came off! I took a gust of air- although im sure alot was blood it was alot easier to breathe through my nose.Yay! Gave me a mirror- my nose still looked completely swollen and nostrils a bit weird but nevertheless amazing. Sara proceded to take off my stitches until Dr Kearny returned- those were a bit painful but the nurse was very understanding she explained the nose was still tender and swollen so it is a little painful. NEXT, the splints. OMG the inside splints which i initially thought was a great idea, WASNT. Doctor Kearny returns and begins to search for the splints inside using im assuming tweezers of some sort or whatever kind of tool they had hahah this was by far the most painful. While searching i closed my eyes and they began to water- my nose felt extremely sensitive- he grabbed the splint and pulled out. I have no idea where these things were but when he pulled the first one out it was crazy and definitely alot larger then my nostril, i never wish to feel that again- the rushing tears on the side of my eyes were a clear sign of the pain.. My doctor apologized and said one more to go- SCARY! Same thing- it absolutely sucked. I couldnt even control the tears hahaha like seriously- straight face but tears uncontrollably rushing down soaking my hair.. Geez never again! ANYWAY, i was so greatful that was over. Scheduled my next visit for friday to have the staples removed on the side of my head (to my understanding majority of rhinoplasties do no need to have fascia removed for under the nose- however mine did and thus the staples). Excuse my story telling. Rest of the day was basically keeping it clean and attempting to smell little things here and there.
