Here are some pics from before and just under 5 weeks after. Very very happy with my profile. I have a tiny bump at the top between my eyes but nothing like what it was before. Getting used to not being disgusted by these sorts of photos and very pleased with my decision :)

Wooo today is one whole month since I had my surgery. Everyone said it'd go fast but I can't believe how much!!
My nose survived the 11 hour flight to LA two weeks after the op and I lost all the hard, horrible dried blood on the first day there so I can breathe so much better. Swelling is LOADS better and I can feel nearly all my nose now so it feels so much more natural on my nose. I'm delighted that my normal smile is now back too :) my nose isn't completely straight yet because of the remaining tip swelling but I can't even describe how much I love not having the bump.
My sister- who knows about the surgery- says she can't see any difference but to me it's huge. I don't cover my face with my hand when people are at my side and I can't wait for the finished product. I feel more confident already and I'm so happy I made this decision. Please let me know what you think :)

I think you look great. I love how it's just a subtle change but can make so much difference to us and bring us so much more confidence. :)

Your nose looks adorable and perfect - and I think your chin is fine, not everyone needs a strong movie star jawline. You look lovely and feminine :)

Ahhh you must be so pleased with your results! You look amazing! Congrats and thanks for the honest account of your experience :)

Worth It
KayteeCeeAugust 3, 2014
So today I've decided to change my undecided review to a "worth it".
It's only been 12 days since my op but since I've started using the nasal spray and the arnica cream I can safely say that the swelling is starting to go down and im starting to love the finished product.
Saw some school friends last night and no one noticed anything different. Spent the whole night laughing so was rather swollen by the time they left but didn't feel like a pig or an alien haha. And except from my dad saying I sounded like I had a cold (my nose is still a bit blocked) my family haven't noticed either!!
I still have under eye bruising- particularly under my right eye- but I'm covering it ok with just normal makeup and under eye concealer. My smile is slowly returning to normal aswell.
As I said before, I go on holiday on Wednesday (will be 2 weeks and a day post op) so will update when I'm back as to how the flying and California heat impacted on the swelling.
Had three drinks on a night out on Friday and that didn't seem to make a difference to the puffiness which I was pleased about :) feeling a lot more positive and confident and, overall, very happy with my decision.

You look wonderful! Can't believe your family didn't notice haha! Have a blast on your trip!

Your nose looks great! I have pictures of me, and my nose looks just like yours does in your birthday pictures (even though yours still looked good on you) I'm 22 now and I've hated mine since I was 8 and I hope mine will look like yours when I get it fixed! Where did you go to get it done? Xx

Thank you :) I felt so nice on my birthday until I saw pictures like that and it really upset me. Id do silly things like hold my hand up at my face when I was crossing the road to cover my nose from the people in the cars- it's actually taking a while to get used to not hating my profile! haha. I went thorough Transform's Glasgow office and they operate at Kings Park Hospital in Stirling- my surgeon was Mr Chociewitz (apologies for my poor spelling of that but that's the pronunciation). He wasn't very chatty or overly-friendly but I feel he gave good advice and I'm pleased with what he did to my nose :) are you based in Scotland? Are you still deciding whether to go ahead? Your welcome to inbox me if you'd like :) xx

Thanx for your reply :) I have always wanted to get it fixed but recently I was on a night out feeling great about how I looked and some drunk **** walked past and shouted over that I have a big nose! I was mortified so I'm really determined to get it done but I've just bought a house and saving for a wedding so I'm going to have to wait haha. I've always been too scared but seeing everyone's reviews and seeing how great yours looks just makes me feel excited! I'm based in Liverpool but I don't mind traveling for a good surgeon and I'll defiantly keep your one in mind! Xx
