It's Been a While!!

Hi community members!
A while back, I deleted my before and after pictures because I started to become uncomfortable with my whole face out on the internet. So here are some of my pictures reuploaded with censors to cover my eyes.
It's been almost four years since my rhinoplasty and chin implant, and while there are days where I still struggle with my overall appearance, I am still very happy I got my surgery done.

More pictures!

Here are more pictures, some of them are from straight on views of my nose; and one of the others is a picture of my nostrils, which are slightly uneven. I guess that's the only bad thing I can get out of this surgery, but I'm really glad that's the only problem I have with it. No one notices uneven nostrils haha so it's not that bad a problem. Also the scar from my chin implant is still slightly visible, but I'm sure it still has a few more months to go before it's almost completely gone. I am very happy with my nose! Thank for all the wonderful comments by all of you.

5.5 months post-op

Hey everyone!
Sorry if I haven't updated in a while. I'm glad i'm getting around to it again though.

Okay! Wow, so a lot of emotions have happened since my last update. I actually began hating my nose (I know, crazy) because I thought it was still too long, too wide, etc. But honestly, it was my dysmorphia talking because I really do love how my nose looks. Could the doctor have made it a teeeeeensy tiny bit shorter? Sure. Could my nose have been made just a little bit thinner? Yes, but I keep reminding myself that the "natural" look is what I wanted, and I remember telling the doctor hundreds of times that I did not want a nose that people could tell I got surgery on right off the bat. My mom even says I might have scared him. Haha! Well, my nose still looks so much better than what it used to before and I am content and happy with it now. I definitely won't go in for a revision, for my nose looks so natural and I would not want to risk losing that natural look to it no matter what.

My breathing is A-okay! Don't have a deviated septum anymore, which is nice.

THE ONLY CON I HAVE:
-If you look through my pictures, you'll see a picture of my severely uneven nostrils. That, of course, was asymmetrical swelling. Howeverrrrr, my nose, if taken a picture through the nostril angle, is actually still asymmetrical, although it's nowhere near as bad as that picture. It's not noticeable from a front view--like if a person was looking at me straight on. It might be noticeable if a person was looking at it from under though. I'll post pics of my nostrils when I can.

Extremely intelligent, detailed, and nice! Knows exactly what he is talking about. I had went to one doctor in the U.S. before coming to Iran, and my consultation with that doctor was so crappy compared to Dr. Yahyavi's. The other doctor seriously talked with me for around 40 seconds (I am not joking), didn't even ask what I wanted my nose to look like, and was not as warm as Yahyavi. Also the doctor in the U.S. priced his rhinoplasty at $8,500, which is crazy compared to $2,500 with Yahyavi. Yahyavi, on the other hand, right off the bat asked what I WANTED my nose to look like, conversed with not only me, but my mom and aunt who had come with me as well and my consultation with him took around 10-15 minutes. It was glorious. He is an amazing surgeon and I hope he realized how much better he has made the lives of people like me.
