Omg I still can't believe I'm finally going to get my nose done I have been wanting it for so long. I have been teased about my nose since middle school and still as an adult. I like my nose from the front but hate my profile its just huge. I feelblike as soon as I walk into a room my nose says hello to everyone before I do lol, it feels so good to be able to say exactly how i feel because now I know I am for sure getting it done now. I was feeling very nervous today going into my second consultation with the chosen surgeon , and I felt so comfortable with him so I feel very good about it. :)

So I have been very anxious and nervous just thinking about the whole process, but i am also trying to ignore the whole thing until it get closer i am still 1 month away. My pre op appt is April 4 so im excited and thats when i will pay off the rest of the balance. I read everyones reviews everyday and get very excited with all of your results :) but then i read bad reviews and get worried :/. But I am really glad i found this site it has helped me alot i am also trying to prepare myself for the rollercoaster of emotions you get after a rhinoplasty.

So i went to my pre-op yesturday and was still feeling a bit nervous and wondering if i was doing the right thing. I have always believed in trusting your gutt feeling and as soon as i saw the Dr I felt very comfortable and all the doubting stops. I asked him if there was a bad result if he would do a revision he said it is rare it doesnt really happen to him but if it did he would do it free of charge I would just have to pay anesthesia fees and hospital fees wich is understandable. And i get very nervous but who doesnt huh and he told me just to drink a glass of wine the night before and when i arrived at the hospital they would give me happy stuff lol. I have a list of things for after my surgery thanks to everyone on realself has helped me alot. I love reading everyones stories and excited with your results :).
