Official hospital stuff!
So today I received all of my hospital paperwork confirming the date etc! Apparently I'm even getting excited about filling in forms these days!!
7:00am admission!! Eek! Takes me around an hour from my home to get to the hospital so that will be an early start! My friend is chauffeuring me that day so I hope there's a comfy waiting room so she can nap! Haha
I have a little questionnaire asking few questions about me so the nursing staff know what I like and how to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Almost sounds as though I'm checking in for a spa break!! :)
Anyway here are a couple more pictures just to show some more nose angles. I know how hard it is to find someone with the same nose shape so I hope this helps someone out there pondering rhinoplasty!!

Woo-hoo! How exciting! Here's a list of supplies you might want to gather for recovery. I'll be looking for your updates.

P.S. I also wanted to send you this link about anesthesia (even though the asker was a breast augmentation patient, it still applies) as I found it very comforting. I hope it comforts you, too!

Thanks so much for the info! I want to be as prepared as it's possible to be! I'll definitely have a read of the anesthesia info, I noted it down as a worry on my pre assessment forms.. I'm hoping they'll go easy on me!! ;)

Hi I sent you a private message then realised you could comment here!
I really liked dr Murphy! I went to a few others like MYA which were awful and found that James Murphy was the only baaps registered in Manchester I could find and he seemed the most professional and didn't just agree with everything I said and told me what would suit me. I keep looking at his before and afters on his site to ease my nervousness!

I've messaged you back :)
I went to harley medical when I was 19 (6 years ago!) but the surgeon didn't even look at my face when she was telling me what she planned to do!! I decided against them and worried if I'd made a big mistake waiting so long but everything happens for a reason I guess!! I feel so much more ready and informed now!
I keep doing exactly the same! There's one result on there that I can only dream of!! Haha

Trust me it will go by quick & I have a question for you
how much did it take to get the appointment scheduled for the surgery ?
April 12, 2014
I really hope so, although the week before I'll probably be like 'slow dooowwwnn'!! haha
Not sure what you mean by how much? I scheduled by surgery just under 9 weeks away from my surgery date if you mean time wise. :)

Yes thank you , im going to turn 15 in a month and I have a crooked nose due to an accident I had , so im having trouble breathing and im barely going to see my surgeon in a week for the first time.

Research...
Today I've been searching some celebrity noses... I know I shouldn't really because its not realistic blah blahh.. BUT I'm obsessed and can't help it! :) I feel like I need some pictures of the shapes I like to take to my pre op to make absolutely sure that the surgeon and I are on the same page!
I've realised that I tend to pick similar nose shapes.. maybe a bit more squared and not so rounded! Noses I like best (today at least!) are Kate Beckinsale and Sienna Miller's!
I also can't help but search Blake Lively pictures because the difference in her before and after is incredible!! It gives me hope for my own nose results!

I like the wish noses you picked. Initially I didn't think it was a good idea to show my surgeon the nose I liked of a model. But then when I went for my 2nd consult 20 days before my revision, I decided to show him the photos and I am glad I did. He asked me me to bring the photos on the day of surgery. I am very happy with the outcome. You are beautiful abd I hope you get tge nose uou have always wanted. Good luck to you!

Thank you! I'm going to take them just for my own peace of mind really. I'm going to try to pick another couple showing what I wouldn't want too! I know you can't replicate a nose exactly but I'm a bit worried about ending up with a nose that's too slopey and like a continuation of my forehead, if that makes sense! :)
