Finally Did It! - Lake Oswego, OR

1.5 year update!!!
WORTH IT$7,000
Hello! It's been 1 and a half years since I had my procedure. I am happy with the results. I can honestly say that it took 1 solid year to get definition in the tip of my nose and for everything to settle.
Given the large amount of time, one thing to consider that has been an issue:
1. How will your new nose fit with the shape of your face?
I had an usual long space between my nose and lip. I never noticed with my old nose because it was much longer. Having a procedure in which they shorten your nose will cause this space to be much more prominent. If I could do it all over again I would have left more length on the end of my nose and not and the small slope that I did get. I think the work is great. I would have had my nose set in a way that it was straight instead of slightly curved. This at least provides a shadow for that area and less nostril exposure. Just some things I would have like to consider going in. Overall though, it is one of the BEST decisions I have ever made and I feel so much more comfortable in my skin. Good luck everyone!

It's officially month two to the day! So far I love it. It takes at least a month and a half to look normal. I wish I would have known that going into it. But now that's less swollen and getting definition, I absolutely LOVE it!

Wow, your nose looks incredible! It's such a difference, but it definitely doesn't look like a "nose job nose," as you put it, lol. I have a fraternal sister too, and she has a tiny, perfect nose, and I too got my huge, bumpy nose from my dad! It's so frustrating. I'm hoping to save up enough money to get my nose done right after I graduate from high school. I just don't know how to approach my parents about it....

I think it turned out just beautiful! Good for you! I am noticing that all of the women getting nosejobs on this site were already very pretty, and the nose work just enhanced their beauty and put the icing on the cake so to speak. This is such a great website people considering rhinoplasty like myself.

Everything is almost back to normal. No more uneven nostrils and most of the dissolvable stitches are gone. Its finally looking less swollen which is a huge relief. I can already feel my confidence improving when I went out for new years!

Your nose looks amazing!! :) I'm 1 day post op ( I don't have much swelling at all, really only my nose is super swollen) I hope mine looks as good as yours :) do you still see as many changes in your nose daily like you did when you first got it done?

Thank you! The last few days have been the first that I have had consistency. It changed what seemed like daily (by friends and family noticed too) for almost two weeks after I got my cast off. This tip is still swollen and kind of hard, but the bridge seems to be normal.

heyyy, you look great!!! I'm glad you like what you see! I can definitely tell a big improvement beyond the swelling. It fits your face so nice!! Oh & btw, I love that picture of the trees in the back!
