It's been a year since my rhino and upper bleph surgery. The year was a tough one because I wasn't sure if I was happy with my results all the time, much of the time I wasn't. Now that it's been a year I feel I've accepted my new face and I love my new nose. It wasn't love at first sight because I looked so different. My nose was starting to look bigger and bonier as I aged, a family trait. I felt for a long while that I no longer resembled my family, but I realize now that I do. Facial surgery be a very hard thing to do on an emotional level. I'm so happy that I did it, but don't think that it's going necessarily going to be an easy journey for everyone. There were times that I was extremely depressed, this was surprising to me. I'm adding a pic from 2007 to show how my lids and nose looked then, another one several months before my surgery and the new one just last week. I won't keep them up for long because it's such a private matter to me.

Hi dragon66.. not sure if you'll see this as it's been almost two years since you last posted. But if you do red this comment, would you mind sending me a PM? I have a consultation with Dr Ridenour for the exact same procedures you had done, and I'd love to hear more about your overall experience, how you feel about the results two years later and see your before and after pics if possible. I've had this face for 54 years so I'm obviously a little nervous... thanks in advance for your reply :-)
