Primary Rhinoplasty and Facial Fat Transfer by Dr. Motykie

Awwww thank you! I am in the middle of rewriting my consultation day experience if you want to check back later:) Before my surgery I couldn't find many Dr. Motykie patient reviews so I am really hoping this helps those who are undecided :)

Just posted some! How is your recovery going? My first week was pretty rough pain wise but it gets better fast, I promise!

Ask away! Before surgery they were 100% natural and untouched. Dr. Motykie did transfer fat to them as part of the facial fat transfer to plump them up a bit more and I love the results!

Thank you so much! I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed for a fabulous outcome!

And I didn't mean that to be rude, I just mean you are pretty and you didn't need all that work. You look good either way.

I totally get where you are coming from :) I would never want to make anything feel bad about themselves and I'm sorry if I made you feel awful by posting my pictures and story. We all have our hang ups and our ish that maybe we see or feel differently about than others do- my nose was this for me. Clearly it's not a cute, tiny, button nose but it's also not something that is a major hindrance- not excessively huge, no breathing problems etc. I had hated my nose since I was 14, and as I aged my negative feelings about it grew, honestly, if I hadn't done it now I probably never would have- life gets in the way, real problems take over and I only just found a surgeon I felt could deliver what I wanted as I was terrified of being botched. I guess you can say the stars lined up for me this time :) thank you so much for the compliment- since we are almost nose twinsies that means we both are! Are you surgeon searching?

That's why I added that second comment, since we can't see each other's faces in these forums I know some things can come off not as nice or jokingly as intended. Thank you for your kind response, I definitely understand and hope you are pleased with your outcome because I know how that can feel! I was previously searching but I'm currently on the fence as whether or not to go forward because my relationship with my nose is love/hate. From some angles I think it's just terrible but then other times I think it's kind of unique and cute, and it's not overpowering or anything so maybe I shouldn't be so preoccupied with it (I'll try to get some pics up on here). Thank you for sharing your personal experience, hope it all works out, you look great in the before AND after!

You are too sweet! Thank you! I think post adjustment to your 'new' nose/face can throw you off and change your preoccupation. Like before its I hate my nose to is this new nose harmonious with my xyz. It's kind of like which is better the devil you know, or.... ? I totally know what you mean about having a love/hate relationship with your nose- mine was exactly that! I may not have liked my nose but it was mine and as awful as it was (in my eyes) erasing the familial aspect of it did give me pause for awhile. I'm not sure if you found this too but to be totally vain I hated my nose in pics, my husband would complain that I made us take at least (0 pics before I found one in which my nose didn't look awful- I almost think that as I've aged it dropped more in the front- has yours? Thank you for your best wishes and in thinking my mess of a post op self looks great- I totally feel the opposite, so it means a lot! Also I would love to see your pics if you ever share them, let me know!

Haha that's funny you say that because that's really just my biggest problem, I don't like it it pics a lot of times! Not really from the front but mostly the side. And I feel like I can't just make random silly faces in photos mostly out of concern for how my nose will end up looking! I haven't noticed it dropping more in the front that I'm aware of, but I will say it's something that didn't bother me until a few years ago (I'm 31 now). I never even paid attention to people's noses previously, and as our world became a little more social media oriented, I was like "wait, I hate this nose!" So maybe it has dropped more and that's why I dislike it so much now. I'll get a pic up tonight, I'm just kind of new to this site and learning to navigate. Thanks again for sharing, you really do look good and I'm sure you'll be very pleased in the long run! It takes bravery for sure so good for you!

I'm so glad you're finding it helpful! :)

And thank you! You are too sweet.

Sure! I'm 34 :) Thank you! I did a virtual consultation online- it was easiest at the time but looking back I wish I had flown there for it :) I just added my Dr. M morph below if you want to check it out!

I am 34 too. :) If I am going to get the surgeries, I want to get them done while I still have good skin elasticity and healing potential. (Also, before my kids really remember anything.) It's such a hassle to fly out, but I think I'll have to do it for peace of mind. Thank you for answering my questions! My fingers and toes are crossed that your results are awesome. :)

Thank you again- me too! :) I am playing catch up on his review so I'll be updating as much as I can. I definitely don't think you have to fly out but it can't hurt, right? I am not sure how long his initial consultations are but his office was super busy when I was there- lots of people in and out, so it may not be worth it when you weigh up the cost of it all vs possible time spent. But... Then again who wouldn't love a trip to LA sans kids? :)

That is a very good point. A lot of people on realself say that his office runs very behind and is super busy. It may not be worth it to fly out. I think your and Rhionette's results will really determine whether or not I just take the leap and book it. Thank you!

I saw another Motykie nose on the boards- exciting!!! :) If you do decide to do a virtual consultation you will be well taken care of by Diana- she is your go between with Dr. Motykie and is phenomenal at answering all your questions and replying in a timely, thorough manner. I am a HUGE Diana fan as she made the whole experience smooth and as stress free as it could be :)
