    Default rhinoplasty?

    Hey!

    So i have my consultation this week on thursday and i will probably go in on the 18th -20th to have my surgery.
    I do not know what to expect really..i mean i know there is bruising, pain, but how will I feel around day 2 or 3?
    I plan on camming with the cast on my nose around day 3....all my regs know that im doing it, and they said it shouldnt be a big deal
    for me to still cam...i was just wondering if someone has gone through it and still cammed?

    do you know what exactly you are having done? tip refinement only (aka cutting the soft cartilage) will be a pretty easy recovery, shaving the bone will be more painful, and breaking and reshaping the entire nose will be excrutiating.

    I had my nose done 7 months ago. I was really scared it would be painful but it was way easier than I thought. I had the whole thing breaking and all. Don't be scared it just feels like your nose is stuffed up. Don't go back to work to soon though you really do need to rest so you heel properly. And make sure u go to the best dr available.

    i have to fix a deviated septum...so im sure theyre breaking it. and tip refinement and shaving the bridge. since i think it sticks out too far.
    i just dont know if i can cam while having it busted up. i find out thursday what theyre doing....then i plan on having the surgery 18-20th if he has a slot open.
    did you bring a pic in on what you wanted? or should i have him fix it the way he wants? i want the bridge to not stick out so much a small tip...a swoop in my nose. since its just straight from the side, and septoplasty

    i wont be doing tooo much if i am on cam, and i think the guys will understand it...and most know about it...so theyre not gonna be surprised.
    so thats the nice part, i think i will take 3-4 days off. then go on cam. but we'll see how i feel, i think this week i am gonna be making a mass of videos, and get offline tips on mfc
    and schedule skypes. i do have a guy who said he would pay me to talk to him on skype while my nose is healing, so i have income, so thats nice. so i know i have that part covered. im just obessed with working
    do you have before and after pics?

    Good luck!! Don't feel bad about taking time off, you need to heal ... healing is what's most important.

    I finally decided that after I save up to move, I'll start saving for a rhinoplasty ... I'll probably set a date for this year. I'm really eager to finally get this done. I hope you'll post back in this thread to let us all know how it goes.

    I had my nose done about 5 years ago. Days three and four were the most painful. Bruising started going down around day 7 with the help of arnica pills and hot and cold. I was totally out of it for about two weeks.

    luscious has your nose shrunk a lot since you first got it done? I'm worried it'll continue to get smaller and smaller if I get a rhino

    thats not how rhinos work. it can take up to a year to settle into its final shape (the one you agreed upon with the dr) but after that your nose will start to grow a little. it wont be noticeable but 20 years down the line your nose will most likely be a bit bigger because our noses continue to grow as we age.

    Ginger, that's so exciting!! I'm planning to get mine done before the end of the year (it would be sooner if I weren't moving, ugh). Also, $4,500 is a really great price. Enjoy your small nose. I'll definitely be interested in your Youtube diary. I love seeing before/afters.

    Sorry for the hijack, but if anyone can recommend a good surgeon in LA or CA in general, please let me know. I've been researching but it's been time consuming and I trust you girls more than I trust random reviewers.

    Thanks. Would you mind PMing (or posting here, whichever you'd prefer) your surgeon? I had plans to travel to either Oregon or Washington anyway, so it wouldn't be inconvenient for me. There's two surgeons near LA I'm highly considering, but it's pretty expensive to get it done here.

    You have it mixed up--what you are saying is true for a nose that hasn't been surgically altered NOT for rhinoplasty. As we age the cartilage from our ears and our nose will continue to grow which is why old people have droopier more bulbous noses than they did earlier on. However a nose job will continue to shrink after the one year mark, the layer of scar tissue that forms over the nasal structures gradually contracts over time. That's why so many people who have had rhinoplasties end up having revisions say ten years down the line due to a mid vault collapse or breathing issues. When you remove/thin out cartilage you are compromising support. How thin your skin is and how aggressive the doctor is with your rhinoplasty can also attribute to this issue. There are many examples of celebrities with visible changes to their rhinos over time--an example being Farah Fawcett.

    Did they have to shave it or break it? Or was it just tip reshaping?
