5 years post- still worth it!
WORTH IT$200
5 years later and it’s still worth it! I had another procedure today (lip injections) so I’m swollen but my nose looks the same as 5 years ago. Still like my profile swoop :)
As far as pain or discomfort or additional scar tissue, I’ve had none after that first year. Since the second surgery all has been fine. I do still wake up stuffy a lot, and have decided I have allergies. I thought long ago a rhinoplasty would help me breathe better through my nose but that hasn’t happened. I’m still a mouth breather at night and wake up parched every morning. I’ve learned to live with it. In a couple of weeks I’m getting a procedure on my neck to tighten up that loose skin that has gotten much worse over the years. Looking forward to that!
I’m pleased with all the procedures I’ve had so far. Worth the cost and recovery time to feel good. I’ve chosen to fight the aging process as best I can. I say do what makes you happy!

Looks very good. You look like you took 8-10 years off your age. You can't complain about that.

Thank you! I will definitely get it done again in the future. I've tried a few not so inexpensive topical face creams and nothing is working. At least I know that works!

Your results look great. I have been using botox for my crowsfeet for 15 years, since I was 40 and now I am 55. If you keep it up, you will stay wrinkle free! After a few treatments, you'll no longer have the initial tightness, at least I didn't.

Still happy with my results. When I scrunch my lines are back, but I still haveyothink about it if that makes sense. Threes right feeling is gone completely. If i could afford it i would get it done again,but will probably wait a few more months. I have to pay for the rhinoplasty I had in June, and want to give myself some more time to heal from that.
