6 months PO, very happy with the results

This whole thing has been a very positive experience for me. I had my 6 month check up yesterday, and my doctor was happy with the results and so am I. The flat spot on my nose is 95% gone, there is a narrow flat area that really only shows up when my skin is oily and I'm really looking for it in the mirror. The bridge is narrow, and my profile is more attractive. Before surgery, I literally obsessed over the appearance of my nose on a daily basis. I think probably every single time I looked in a mirror I I fixated on my nose and how unhappy I was with it. I am so happy to say that those days are long gone! Now I look at myself in the mirror and i just see my face, no more obsessing or having negative thoughts. Wish I would have done it years ago!

Just thought I would check in and post some pictures of my one month results. So far I am pleased with the results. I love my new front view as well as the oblique view. I'm still a little unhappy with the side view, I still think it is overprojected. I'm hoping that this is just swelling. One unexpected result is that the doctor fixed the drooping tip when I open my mouth wide or make an exaggerated smile. Lol this is a goofy smile to demonstrate the droopy tip, this is not how I regularly smile :).

I just thought I would post some updated pictures to show how my nose is healing and to let anyone who is reading know that I am very pleased with the results so far. Right after I removed my splint, there was a small bump on the bridge on the right side. I've been so worried about touching my nose and doing any damage that I only just sort of barely touched it.... I was finally brave enough to give it a little pressure and it seems to be soft, which is a relief that it is only swelling. I'm still a little worried that the tip looks too large, could be swelling, but I know that the doctor wasn't going to change the tip.... I guess it would be natural for the tip to look wider now that there is no more wide bridge to balance it out. Overall, I am happy with the results. Is my nose now a cute little model nose that someone might put on their "wish list"? Probably not. Is it ten times better than it was before? ABSOLUTELY! And I still look like me. In fact, even though I told all my friends and family, no one else has noticed. (Or else they are too polite to ask?!?) Several people asked me why I had a black eye, but no comments on my nose.
