How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Four months since surgery.
Feeling great! Breathing fine, no headaches, pressure, stuffy or runny nose. Septoplasty seems to have cured these issues! Nose still asymmetric, but I'm learning to live with this. It helps that I'm straightening my teeth at this time, though. I'm able to focus on that for now. Nose is still healing so I will be patient. I see the doc again in March.
Still not thrilled.
My nose seems even more crooked sometimes than it was pre- septoplasty. Or at least just as crooked. But still no headaches or sinus pressure, and even my seasonal allergies seem to have abated. It still feels sore if I touch it too roughly, so I try to just leave it alone. I also try to avoid taking pics and staring too much at it, as this is exasperating for me. I'm going to try to learn how to do some camoflaguing contouring makeup as soon as I get over my laziness. I'm not all that into makeup.

The stitches inside my nose have been coming out on their own. I think they may all be out now. My breathing is great, nose is still clean and clear. I'm still doing the irrigations but only once daily, and I've stopped using the spray. No headaches. Protecting my nose from injury. My nose looks almost exactly how it did before surgery. The only difference I see at this point is that the tip appears more elevated now. The crookedness is still there. I may look into non- surgical solutions such as restalyne or juvederm to fill in and try to restore symmetry that way. But that's down the line as I still have a ways to go with healing from this surgery.
