3 1/2 weeks post op
I sound crazy, but my last post about the 'hump"...... It's actually not a true hump. Just an illusion from the bridge on opposite side of my nose. dr C was so easy to get in touch with to talk about this... I'll see him in a month to check it out as well. Turns out my concern is more of the 3/4 view smile... Not my profile. Oh and when I smile straight forward I'm not loving that either but hey, I'm only 1 month post op still swollen and changing! How's everyone else's recovery ?

little worried
I see a lot of you posting that you look a little 'pig-ish' post surgery so I was anticipating that. however, I am 2 weeks post op and I have Drooping. only when I smile and it's more prominent on one side ...did anyone else experience this? I heard the tip will drop more as it heals but I must be honest I'm a little concern. my nose is slightly crooked(to begin with) and that doesn't bother me as much as the droop when I smile. let me know what u guys think! I need to schedule my 1 month visit and wonder if I should call beforehand about this

I hope your results get better for you. I think it's too early to worry. If you are concern give the doctor a call.

My nose was a strange mass for the first month. It swelled on one side, and then on the other. My biggest concern that the swelling was uneven; one nostril sat higher than the other, and then a day or two later, the other side would take a turn on the nostril see-saw and IT was higher. I don't have trouble with drooping or bumps, and although I had the piggish look for a couple of weeks, everything is working out beautifully. My nose isn't as small as it was when the cast was taken off. I guess that's normal though. I think that you might want to post your question for the Q&A docs and see what they say. You could call your doc, but there's probably not much to be done at this stage, except wait to see what happens.

I thought my nose looked piggish for about 7 days after and then all was fine. Maybe you should send a photo to the doctor and get his take?

Hi Couture that is such a great idea!! I know e checks up with patents on here, but I called to make apt sooner- my concerns have changed bc the swelling has gone down even more... Thank you so much for sharing your experience girl !! :)

well, i would feel the same concern as you i'm sure. my tip droops, and it's one of the worst probs for me! i hope my doctor will upturn my nose extra in case it falls somewhat after the surgery! the last thing i can do is a revision. i need this to be final. so, i am going to an expert and hoping for the best. i hope yours will lift a bit after swelling goes down! either way though, you look so pretty and the bump is gone!

I doubt you will have any issues with Naderi :) It's all how they stitch the domes together to get the final appearance of the tip :)

Regarding the constipation- probiotics worked wonders. I started them a month before and took them 3 times a day post op and no constipation! And I took the hell out of hydrocodone. Also no diarrhea with antibiotic. I swear by them!
