I had a Nose Job

[Mac_Mocha]

I had my nose done at the end of November. I can't wait to go tanning again in a few months since I have been ordered to stay out of the sun for 6 months post surgery, lol. Little by little my nose changes, but my doctor said the same thing....that it will take a year for full results.

Thanks. But you see I was never born with a hump in my nose, the only reason I had a hump was because I wore prescription glasses since I was 8 or 9 years old, and the weight of the glasses sitting on the bridge of my nose caused a hump to appear over the years. So now that I've had the surgery I do not wear any glasses at all, not even my beautiful Juicy ones

I have to wait probably over a year till I can wear my stunner shades

You know a nose job is the least painful surgery to have done, there's not much pain, your face feels paralilyzed more then it feels pain. It took off 2 weeks, and then after that it was safe for me to come back, I was afraid to catch infections from being out of the house so I just relaxed and took everything easy, it was like a little vacation, and my only options were to relax and enjoy my time off.

Thanks so much for the pics. I agree that your new nose looks very natural. I often think of getting my nose done. It's asymmetric and though it looks mostly okay straight-on, I have two different profiles, and both are bad.

You look great!

I always thought that you were beautiful! I think you looked wonderful before but they did do a wonderful job. I am glad that it turned out so well and keep us posted.

thanks so much for making this! ive been dying to have my nose done since i was like what, 10 years old?! im middle eastern, and have a very arab nose. i started saving up for it since january, but since im a broke college student, i havnt saved up much. :/ my family is completly against it, so if i get it done ill have to pay for it myself. ive wanted to go in for a consultation but i didnt really know what the price range would really be like. i found quotes anywhere from 3000-6000 online. im graduating this summer so i really want to get it done then.

thankyou!

You look absolutely gorgeous and so stunning. I'm really glad for you, glad to hear you became more confident, glad that you enjoy your new look. Best wishes! Your eyes btw look really fantastic big. Take care, cangratz!

You look great and glad to hear you are feeling great also. I have a question I read a few of you say about getting lumps/bumps from wearing glasses. Is there anything you can do for this. I'm past 40 and now wear reading glasses. So if I had a nose job what would I do about that? Because I can't read, write, be on the computer, or a lot of things without my reading glasses. I had never heard that before but it does make sense especially while you are healing you don't want to get a big dip there where they sit on your nose.

I must say, your nose looks fantastic!

I got the hump on my nose from my glasses cause I wore them for years before I got contacts. I wore glasses since I was 8 years old until I was 13, and ages 8 to 13 is a developing time for young kids their faces are still growing along with their bodies, so the glasses did me a lot of damage to my nasal bones and to my cartalige. I don't wear my sunglasses either cause I'm scared to reverse the problem and have a hump again. Glasses are heavy and people dont realize that. And I am BLIND without my glasses so thats why I had to wear them all the time all day long ...

If you compare the difference from 10 weeks after surgery to 5 months later the swelling has gone down a lot and my nostrils are evening out my nose is still swollen and it will take til maybe february 2009 to heal completley.
