WORTH IT
My experience with Dr. Buonassisi and his team was wonderful! He was very forthright during the consultation, and told me that I should be open to the idea of also not having a rhinoplasty done, since my nose wasn't all that bad to begin with. That indicated to me that he isn't just trying to get $$$ - he genuinely cared about the outcome and my satisfaction with it. My nose drooped down too much, and had a bump that was more visible from one side, thus making me look sort of like a wicked witch. The procedure itself went swimmingly. I love my new nose; it ended up looking very natural, and I think most would assume that my nose just looked this way, and had not been surgically manipulated. There was hardly any discomfort during recovery. I was not even as stuffed up as I would be with a cold. Pain was minimal as well - the tip of my nose was slightly tender for a few days afterward, but nothing unbearable. I would highly recommend Dr. Buonassisi to anyone thinking about having a Rhinoplasty, or any other facial plastic surgery. I apologize for the quality of the photos... I only took a few profile selfies from before so that I could look back back and compare! And I tried my best to take a few in recent days which show the difference - as you can see, there is still some slight scabbing and swelling. The first two are the befores, and the rest are the afters.

Beautiful results -- congrats!! What’s the #1 piece of advice you would give to someone considering a Rhinoplasty?

Thank you! I would say to find a highly trained plastic surgeon. Look at their before and after patient photos and ensure that the end results look good. If you see that they are creating really unnatural, fake looking noses, it's probably for the best that you go elsewhere. You don't want people to look at you and think "Oh she obviously had a nose job". I'm stoked because no one would ever guess that I'd had one, had I not been so open about it all. New people I meet will never know.

your nose looks so natural and nice!
if you don't mind me asking how much did your nose job cost? :-)
