    Default I want a nose job!!!

    I really want to refine the look of my nose. I don't want anything too crazy, just a straighter looking nose. People say a good nose job can totally change your face. I haven't consulted a doctor yet, but I wanted to know if anyone has had one or know's someone. The possible risks, the pain involved, suggestions for good doctors, experiences etc........I am little afraid b/c it's not like having a bad breast job, you could never hide a bad nose job, ask Michael Jackson........Help!!!!

    this is my favorite plastic surgery site:



    I'm sure you'll find some good rhinoplasty info in there, I do believe the girl who started the site had her nose done and maybe the tip refined?

    Check it out.

    here's a link within the above mentioned site:

    God, I love that site.

    I was looking at the nose jobs on there. On most of the noses, you can't even tell much of a difference. And looking at some of the befores, they are actually not that much different than my nose. I was happy with my nose until I saw this site!

    the girl, Marianne looks like she was beat up after her nose job. it looks so painful.

    P.S. I thought MJ said he never had plastic surgery!!

    riiiiiiiiiight. And he has that skin condition where he evenly loses his pigment.

    Anyhow, yeah, that's her name. Marianne. The site is a plethora of info and links for any plastic surgery princess.

    I had a mild change with my nose. I actually had a ears, nose, throat specialist perform the surgery because I also had MAJOR breathing problems. Thus, my insurance covered everthing but $2,000.

    The change is minimal but I like it. I still look the same and only a few ppl have noticed that I had something done. He took out the bump and narrowed the passage. Unfortunately, he did not do any tipplasty or whatever, so it doesn't have that cute upward button thing going like I like. Also, one side is a bit crooked because it did not heal symetricaly. That is VERY common for rhinoplasty, which is why most people do it more than once.....

    Hope this helps...if I have time I can try to Photoshop together a before and after....as always, do your RESEARCH!

    Pain:
    General anesthetic, which was good. I was on Vicodin for a few days, then it stopped working once the nose was healing. The healing really HURT because of the burning and itching. I took Xanax for a couple more days so I did not care if it hurt. It took over a week to breathe from both nostrils and they clogged up all the time. I hate mouth breathing so that was annoying. AND, you have to sleep on your back...

    I had a deviated septum. The web link above explains it medically. I had broken my nose and had once busted a blood vessel in there and it caused the breathing passage to get all twisty. Honestly, I am still having trouble breathing after an initial relief. But at this point, I blame Central Texas allergies and occasional cocaine use.....

    I've always wanted a nose job because I think my nose is huge and my doc said I can get most of it paid for except for the aesthic part because I have a deviated septum and damage to the partition in my nasal cavity. I can't breathe out of my nose period. But I don't have the money right now to get it done so I have to wait.

    How bad was the swelling, bruising, etc after you got it done? How long before it looked normal?

    The swelling was really BAAAAD! I have a photo of it, but I would frighten all of you if I posted it here..my face was purple, yellow, and round like a pumpkin.

    The swelling was gone in less than a week....we put bags of frozen peas on my face all the time...its better than ice. Within 2 weeks it looked awesome..but it was a little off color or something...

    After a month it had healed completely, but over the next 2 months, it slowly started to look a little crooked. Since the nose never stops growing, this is normal....cost me $2k total for the aesthetic part...not bad...cheaper than boobs..

    Oh, and I will probably have it done again in the next few years, but only the tip. Sometimes you can get work done without them breaking the bone...

    well....my best friend had 2 rhinoplasties (sp?) the first one she got becasue her brother and her got in a fight when they were really young and he broke her nose so it looked totally jacked up. the second one she "said" was because the dr. screwed it up so it didn't heal right, but she was so heavy into drugs and snorting stuff i always thought that's what it was. she was back doing that a mth after each one.

    i'm guessing that she looked and felt like crap (not to scare you) because no matter what we did (me and her other friends) we didn't see her for a good 3 weeks after each one, she wouldn't talk on the phone, didn't show up for school, (she got both her sr. year of high school)

    altho this doesn't stop me from wanting one too! if u go thru with it keep me updated!

    I'm planning to get a nose job in a few months. The best thing to do is talk to a doctor because the pain and swelling will differ depending on what you want done. Go on google.com and look up Rhinoplasty and you will find more info than anyone could possible need. It's usually not covered by insurance unless you have breathing problems or a deviated septum. Mine is costing around 5,000$ total and I am having my tip reshaped and a bump removed from when I broke it.
    My friend had hers done and said the pain was nowhere near as bad as her boobs. She said she could hear them working on it and "felt" it when they broke it but it wasn't painful. She just felt a release of pressure that actually felt nice. Her pain afterwards was minimal but it looked horrible for about 5 days. It looked like she was run over by a train but the results were amazing when it healed. She looked like a new girl.

    i too plan on having a nose job soon. I had major self confidence issues because of my nose. I was always very cute and popular with the guys and then I broke my nose. I got a big bump on the top part and my whole appearence changed completely. Some of my closest friends stopped being my friend and it really affected me. I struggled until I realized I muxt love myself from the inside for who I am not what I see. I do! and I feel so much more happy and secure with myself. Now I am ready for some work on the outside, I am saving up, although out here in CAli its not cheap. If anyone can personally recommend a doctor here and approx. costs I'd be so grateful!!!

    I'd thought about one before. I am mixed mainly with hungarian and hebrew, so I have a smaller version of the jewish nose, but without the bump. I have decided though that its just a nose, and I still have been with every guy I've wanted so it really doesn't make me any less attractive. Also my boss at my regular job has had 3. I've actually known her since I was a child ( she was my older sisters best friend), and none looked as good or as natural as her regular nose. and now her nostrils aren't even the same size.
