Make sure you absolutely HATE your nose before you consider rhinoplasty

Still not happy
$7,000
hi, I wanted to update my review and to say that I still regret my surgery. I feel that something went wrong with my facial fat as I look way too different for just my nose to have been changed. I have seen the forum on here regarding loss of facial fat and it sounds like this has occurred with me. I miss my face so much, this is so unfair.
I am considering fat transfer but am afraid that that's not the problem and I'll make my face look worse. I had a rhinoplasty in the past but my bones were not broken and I feel breaking the bones and the bruising might have caused loss of fAt...either way it's not a known complication and doctors will not warn you of this so I will..
But I am three and a half years out and I just regret this..
If anyone has advice please let me know. Thanks

Still unhappy
I'm so miserable I have done this to myself. My eyes look so different and my whole face looks different. I don't know what he did to me, but the results are not normal. I cant even look in the mirror at myself and I used to be a pretty girl. I can't understand what happened to me...I'm reading that nose jobs can affect your facial fat and eyes and I think something happened to me. I am beyond devastated that I ruined my face. Even if I get a revision, what about the rest of my face. I look horrible, im not exaggerating. Everytime I look at myself, I freak out. I do not look the same at all. I need help with this - I've been in the hospital 3 times and in therapy, on meds - nothing helps. I'm so scared.

Hi Rain, I'm so sorry for what you've been through and still going through!!! I wish I could help you get through this. I'm in the same boat as you. I know that even when I finally have enough money for a revision, that I still won't look like the old me. What was I thinking? I only wanted a slight change and now I look weird. It has negatively effected all areas of my life and my health. I find some comfort in warning others to be cautious so they don't go through what you and I (any countess others) have been through. Becoming a grandmother has also helped me get through my days and nights. Feel free to contact me if you need someone to talk to.

Hi Rain, I am sorry to hear about what your going through! How are you finding your nose now? I have just had a rhinoplasty and I also feel that my surgeon has made my nose too small. I did have a longer nose and I really miss it. Are u able to post a pic of your nose now and how it was? Thanks

Hi, so sorry you have to go through this, I understand exactly how you feel, I too feel that makeup doesn't make any difference for me anymore, I used to be pretty , now i look different and ugly.
on the bright side your nose is not botched so fixing it will not be as hard as fixing a botched nose, if I understand well you do not have deformity but it's too small for your face. have you had revision yet? did you see dr Davis? I will be praying for you. I too had to go to the hospital twice for nervous breakdowns, I almost lost my mind. I stopped taking pills lately and found little relief on praying and warning others . my eyes have changed , i think part of it is the depression, I don t eat or sleep well, so my eyes look sad and tired. plus I am always in pain, i had a nerve damage the doctor thinks. I ve done lots of thinking,having my exact nose back is impossible , i need to convince myself that i should be ok with improvement. most importantly this WAS NOT YOUR FAULT. forgive yourself .

Hey sweety, I must say you DO look like your self, your eyes are the same your chin, mouth. Everything it even hard to see a difference I know it something else in your head. But I think you make it a lot worse. You do like your beautiful self :)

I'm still not happy with having this done and I...
I'm still not happy with having this done and I would go back for my old nose ANY day. I really miss it and am going through the worst time of my life! This is a situation not to be taken lightly. If you want rhinoplasty, your nose would have to be on your mind day and night. That was not the case with me. I just thought I could fix a minor imperfection. Now my life is ruined and I have a road ahead of me that I never ever would have imagined or signed up for.

Hi, I'm in same situation. The doctor did opposite of what I told him and did a mojor procedure, when on consultation he lied away that he doing small conservative work. I work with my bridge completely shaved down :( I told he so much I love high bridges and he was so demanding for me to do my bridge.so I wanted it filed ever so slighly. But middle part of my nose my bone is so gone. And the pain...omg physically and then mentally. Do you have picture of just your nose pls...message it to my inbox. I really want to see, thank you and hope you fall in love with ur nose

i'm curious to see what your nose looks like. it's probably a very nice nose, just not what you want for yourself. are you going to do it over?

It is a nice nose and my old nose was not, but my face was much more attractive before. I want it done again but would so much rather just have my old nose back and move on. I really don't want this in my life but I cant live with my nose making me look so bad. I can't understand how it happened either because it's not common and this nose is not botched.
