One week on, cast removal!

WORTH IT$8,900
So I've just been for my cast removing. The nurse just undid the plasters and it came right off.
My nose is soooo swollen but you can definitely see the shape it will be when it calms down! From the side it's almost perfect just a bit swollen around the tip so it looks a bit rounded! I love it though already, Mr Phipps is an artist!!

Feeling much much better today!
bd121June 12, 2016
So today we went out for a family meal.
I've been dreading it as I knew I'd have my cast on and wasn't sure what it'd look like with my make up on too.
I'm pleasantly surprised though and it was really easy to do my make up around my cast.
Most of my swelling has now settled too so I'm almost back to normal, still a big puffy in my cheeks and eyes but I think only I would notice it now.
110% worth it though already, just praying I like the rest of my nose when my cast comes off on Tuesday!! ????????
My nostrils still look wonkey but I'm positive it's my splint as if I lift it up off my nostrils they seem even. Still don't have the feeling in my upper lip back properly so my smile is very odd too!

Your already lol absolutely lovely! I can't wait to see without the cast!

Thank you :) that's lovely of you. It's off finally! Ill post a picture soon! :) x

I meant to say in my original comment, "you already look absolutely lovely." Autocorrect! Can't wait to see your nosey! How many days has it been since surgery now?
June 14, 2016
I got the gist :) it's been exactly a week now and although it is swollen you can see what it'll look like! I'll add a pic now!

I'm surprised at how much better your nose looks with the cast still on. When mine was done I couldn't tell at all until the cast was off, and even then it was a suddel difference. I can't wait to see the difference. You look great.
June 14, 2016
Thank you so much that's really kind of you to say :) I've just had the cast taken off and my nose is so small compared to before! I absolutely love it even though it's swollen! I'll post and update later today! Did you like yours when your cast came off? X

Mine nose jobs (two) where for a deviated septum. It's in pretty bad shape, very crooked, one side is collapsed, but I'm a guy not a pretty girl, so I can live with it. Maybe I'll get it fixed again some day.

Oh no! Who did your surgery? I suppose it's easier for guys, you can pull of the rugged look better than us girls! ;)

Beginning to look like a chipmunk...
bd121June 11, 2016
So I woke up this morning, (Thursday) a couple of days after my surgery on Tuesday and my face has swollen like mad!! My eyes are swollen and my cheeks are huge! I wouldn't recognise myself in the street I look so different!
Still no pain and I can't decide if I have bruising or just bags under my eyes!!
Starting to loose a bit of swelling around the tip too. Sleeping absolutely fine and just annoyed that I have a splint on and can't see the full result!! Patience never has been my strongest trait!! Ha

Hi, sounds like we are at a similar stage of this journey. I know the feeling of just wanting the cast off already so you can see what your nose looks like! Does your nose also feel like it's not really yours and has just been stuck to your face??
June 12, 2016
Hey! Oh how exciting!! When do you get your cast off? Has it all gone ok for you? I'm dying to see what it looks like! I can already tell how different my face and nose looks especially at the bottom! It feels so weird with the cast on, like its stuck on as well as taped and I'm not sure what my nose feels like under there, it's almost numb I think!! I'm so sticky under the cast though with the weather, I can't wait to get it off on Tuesday!! How's yours feeling?? X
June 13, 2016
Hi, my cast is coming off tomorrow too! I don't think I'm going to get any sleep tonight, just wondering how it will look. I agree about already seeing the difference from underneath. My boyfriend was the first to notice so that definitely got my hopes up :)
Are you taking it off yourself? And will you be having the stitches removed too?

Eeek it's so exciting! You'll have to let me know what it looks like when it's off!! I've just been for it taking off. The nurse took it off but I could have done it to be honest if I'd known it was so simple :) the stitches are dissolvable so they should sort themselves out :)
I can't believe how lovely it looks even though it's still super swollen! The man is an absolute genius!!! I'll post an update to show you!! Best of luck with yours being removed, I hope you love it!! If your boyfriend can see too already then thats brilliant!!! :) x

Just saw your picture, your nose looks really good and very natural.
I took it off myself and very easy too. Must admit for the first few minutes I almost didn't look like myself which made me sad. However I can see that the surgeon did a great job and it does look natural and in line with my expectations.
Dont know if you had that initial shock as well where you almost miss your old nose!!
In any case, here's to having improved and beautiful noses missy :)

Aww thank you :) I felt exactly the same, when the nurse took it off I was a bit shocked that I didn't look like me but now I'm used to it I love it! It's strange that people don't notice though! I've had clients looking at me today with almost a questioning look as if to say I know something is different but I'm not sure what! Ha I'm glad you like yours too! Is yours still swollen?? Yes here's to that! :) x
