I was thinking to do this surgery since forever. I have disliked my nose for pretty much all my life, so it was all the time in the back of my mind but I guess , deep down , I knew I will newer do it. Then in the last year I was thinking more often about this and I started researching about the procedure and the best doctors in Vancouver. Then I've found Dr.Thomas Bonassisi and after I read everything about his experience and all the reviews I've decided that I shouldn't look anymore, he was going to be my doctor. Best decision of my life. So from "probably I will never do it ", in the same day I've booked a pre-consultation with Jaryn (Patient Care Manager) with whom I was talking all the time befor and after the surgery whenever I needed something. Thank you Jaryn so much. Then in two weeks I had the appointment with Dr.Bonassisi. Everything went great. He explained to me everything: what he will do during the procedure, how I will fill after, how bad I will look with bruises and everything , how the recovery will be. So in the same day I booked the surgery. I finally did it on 05 July 2016. Everything went great . I had bruises for three weeks, my face was swollen and numb , I had stuffy nose for a while but was not too painful. Now after 2 months and 11 days I feel great. My nose looks amazing. I still can not believe I did it, then I look in the mirror and I realize that finally I like my nose and it goes perfectly with my face.
Thank you Dr. Bonassisi for everything. You and your team are great.

It's wonderful to hear how pleased you are after wanting to do this for so long, congrats! Was your recovery better or worse than you expected? Do you have any pre/post-op tips to share? 

As you know, the community loves to see before and after photos so if you're up to adding some to your review that would be appreciated.

Would love to see your before and after pics! I had my surgery just 4 days before yours, July 1st, 2016 and am 42 years old. Always "wanted" to do it, hated my nose, then I guess I hit a mid life crisis or something, LOL, and thought its now or never. Glad you are liking your new nose!

How long did it take from the consultation to the actual surgery
