WORTH IT$7,300
Update: October 26
YAY so my cast is off! It came off Wednesday so its been 2 days and things are looking really good. It's still a bit swollen but such an improvement! My bump is gone :) The skin on my nose was sooo gross though. 1 week of tape on there made things super icky and really hard to scrub since my nose is so sensitive, but it's slowly getting better :) Really happy with the outcome so far. Even if it stayed the way it is now I would be pleased! But I know it will get smaller since it is still a bit swollen. It doesn't look exactly like the consultation photos but I believe that's because of the swelling. I am going to add some photos to show hows things are coming along.
Also if anyone is wondering about booking time off work I would recommend at least 8 days. Going back to work on the second day after your cast off in my opinion would be fine. You might be swollen and bit bruised but makeup covers it well. However I think if you can 10ish days is better so you are feeling more 100% :)

I forgot to say.. I haven't met up with anyone that doesn't know about my surgery yet so I haven't been able to see if anyone actually notices, but I will let you know..The people that do know don't think many people will notice. But we will seeeeee! :)

Thank you for sharing your story. My surgery is Nov.16th and I'm super nervous. I have wanted this for 12 years and now that the date is getting closer I am scared and nervous. Did you just have your hump removed or did they also do tip work? I'm just having my hump removed but I was told that my tip will move up just a little bit therfore, I didnt need to have any work done to the tip. Once you get your cast off did you have to go back for any more appointments?

Feeling waaay better today! I can brush my teeth and eat solid food without having pain now. I can also smile without feeling pain too so I can't really stop! Can't see the full results yet but what I can see is awesome! Super pumped for Wednesday to get this thing off my nose and actually leave my house without people starring at me haaah :)

Hey was Dr. B your surgeon? I'm asking because my surgery with him was also $7300.

October 23, 2012
I have my surgery with him November 6th :o I hope our results turn out well, my nose is similar to yours.

October 22, 2012
How's Dr. B? I also want to get rhinoplasty done and I would do it in Vancouver. I've been considering Dr. Denton but I still am a good year or so away from getting it done, so I'm open to consulting with other surgeons.

He's great, I definitely recommend him! I am very happy with the results and they look really natural. Check out more reviews on him on here and his website! www.8west.ca :) Consulting with other surgeons is best if you have the time though! That way you can decide for yourself who is more suited to your needs :)

So glad to hear you are able to smile and eat solid food again! Only a couple more days till the cast comes off - excited to hear what you think when you get to see it!!

I had my surgery with Dr B in June (If it's the same doc ;) I recognize the same cast. You're in good hands :)
