I am super excited and of course nervous, but I’m sure that is natural.

Still loving my nose. I feel like most of the swelling is gone. However, when I first wake up or when I drink alcohol I can see some slight swelling in the tip area. Another thing I noticed was whenever I had my original nose and I smiled my nose would point down. Now that doesn’t happen, the first month was very strange to see me smile and my nose didn’t move and was up turned. As the swelling has subsided and time has passed I have been feeling much more comfortable with how it looks. When I’ve lived most of my life with the face I had it was a shock and something I needed to get used to. Dr. Andrews still sees a slight jump in my nose, it could be due to residual swelling where my hump was or my bone has rebuilt some. I don’t remember the technical term for it but he said if it’s not gone by 1 year post he will do an in office treatment to make sure he can get rid of it. It really doesn’t bother me but I love that Dr. Andrews take so much pride in the results he gives!

I am loving my nose as the swelling continues to go down. I think it fits my face so well and doesn’t distract from my other feature. My nose used to be the first thing I would notice when I looked in the mirror. Fortunately, that is a thing of the past, my nose takes the back seat and gives my eyes a chance to stand out. I will be curious to see how it will look at 1 year.

I am so happy with how my nose has healed and with how the swelling continues to go down. The swelling is mostly concentrated in the tip area of my nose by now. As my day goes on the swelling goes down and by the time I’m going to bed the swelling has subsided and I am able to see even better the beautiful shape that Dr. Andrews built. I can’t get over how natural it looks. I have gotten nothing but compliments (at least to my face haha) about my nose. Dr. Andrews was spot on, everyone comments on how they like my eyes. I have even been told I look younger now which I’m not hating on. I’d rather look younger than older for my age. I will say I have noticed that if I drink a few drinks at dinner or have more sodium than usual my nose will be a little extra swollen for a day but that goes fairly quickly. So if you wanna keep swelling down, avoid alcohol and don’t overdue the sodium or suffer the swollen consequences. Haha really though no one would notice but me so it’s not that serious just something I noticed.
I want to add that I’ve heard of people getting one thing done and it sets off a wave of wanting more work done to their bodies. I would have to say this experience has had the opposite affect. I feel like since getting my nose done all my imperfections and the things I don’t love about my body bother me so much less. That only confirms in me even more that I made the right decision to wait until I was a little bit older and found the right doctor for me who gave me my dream nose. Thank you so much again! Couldn’t recommend him more.
