How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Week 5: Less swelling is swell!

The swelling seems to now be subsiding rapidly, and finer details are starting to emerge in the tip. Some small asymmetries are showing up; these were from before, but a thousand times less pronounced and are in much better proportion now compared to pre-op. Oddly I kind of like that -- it's still "my" nose, just better. Continue to be utterly thrilled, and I'm trying not to obsess too much about on side or the other as the swelling does its thing. Also, trying not to touch it too much - it's irresistible, but I know that just makes the swelling worse.

Day 9.5 - Before and after cast removal

Just for completeness sake, here's the cast removal. I couldn't move my upper lip AT ALL for weeks, so I looked like a total alien for awhile there. Tip has dropped a bit too, and looks more natural now.

My entire experience was awesome: Doctor Bounassisi made sure my expectations were reasonable and realistic; for example, what I could expect because I have thick skin, but also what he thought was doable and achievable. He listened to my concerns, and let me know what to expect and projected a straightforward confidence that put me quickly at ease. His patient care coordinator, Jaryn, was wonderful at responding to questions and concerns during before, during, and after recovery. My result is beyond incredible. Absolutely thrilled.
