Feeling uneasy at 3 months as there’s still a decent (and expected) amount of swelling in the tip.

Can y’all reassure me things are looking good so far? 🙏

(Pictures 1&2 are before, picture 3 is at 3 months)

Thanks!

Im 11 days post op, and im having issues liking my new nose, for one idk if its just the swelling but it still looks huge from the side. Ive always been self conscious about how my nose looks and i feel like my nose job did help a bit but i feel like its still huge? Is it to early to tell ,am I still very swollen or? I also did notice that there’s a little bump on my nose too, will that go away?

(Before is the first pic, after are the last two)

Do you think I could show this to my surgeon? I have my opp booked 2 weeks from now and I’m thinking to get something like this, I don’t really want a super tiny influencer type nose

Edit: for everyone in my messages asking for the app it’s called PlasticAi

I don’t hate my face or anything, I actually think I am quite attractive, I just would like to fix my nose a bit, and rhinoplasty seems like the way. What would a surgeon do to my nose to even make it look better?

My nose looks okay from a distance, but underneath it is pretty deformed. It's getting worse as I age (mid 40s.)

I am scheduled for a septo/rhino, and I'm trying to anticipate what is realistic. I'm not expecting perfection. I have extremely thin skin. I don't want to look like a different person.

Has anyone dealt with a curvature of the nostril cartilage like mine? My doctor said he's going to score it to force it to change shape.

He's also removing my dorsal hump, osteotomy to narrow bridge and he said he will add a stitch to narrow the tip slightly. He said no grafts are needed (besides the cartilage from my actual septum.) So no ear, rib or cadaver.

Am I missing any red flags or concerns? He spent a lot of time with me and made me feel comfortable.

I’m officially 9 months post op and I still have yet to take a picture from the front without grimacing and crying. I got my nose done because I hated my side profile, and I never had any negative feelings toward the front of my face.

I was so scared of hating important life moments like getting engaged and taking wedding photos because of my side profile and now I feel even worse. My quality of life is quite low because of the anxiety and guilt around spending so much money on something I hate.

At this point, I’m probably going to get a revision. By who? I’m not sure yet, but I cannot stand looking at myself. I never thought I’d miss my old nose until now. 😔

Hi everyone, I got a revision 5 weeks ago and I feel like my nose is very long a projected. Goals was to bring down the tip a little bit and keep same projection. My primary nose was very upturned and un natural for my ethnicity. What do y'all think? Is it really big. I feel like it is and I don't know if it will become smaller as time passes. Is it swelling at the tip and bridge...I don't know and this is making me very depressed.

One year PO next month! Click my name for the details. Revision rhinoplasty.

~2 weeks post-op from an open rhinoplasty + septoplasty. Anyone have similar results post-op? I’m already really happy with the improvement, but I’d love to see how things change as the swelling goes down. These pics are from day 10 (+ the digital morphs from my consult).

Hoping my tip refines significantly, my bridge narrows, and my profile softens into a slightly more sloped (less straight) look, closer to the digital mockup.

My surgeon’s plan was: moderate dorsal hump reduction, moderate slope, dorsum narrowing, straightening, midvault narrowing, tip refinement/reconstruction, hanging columella correction, and alar base reduction.

My bridge looks different everyday. I'm worried about my radix. I feel like the transition isn't as smooth/balanced. Please give me your honest opinion. I'm definitely over-analyzing my face...

it’s been 8months my surgeon messed up with my nose. Do you think I should get a revision now and if yes do you recommend any place ? I feel like my nose is cut too short

I feel like my nose is to upturned help me decide if a rhino would elevate my looks cause I have my surgery in a month!
Is it a good choice ?
Advice appreciated 💓

I asked my doctor not to lift my nose tip because I didn’t want my columella to disappear but he told me it was “droopy” (rlly wasn’t) so he was gonna do it anyway. I let him do it cause I also heard most doctors lift it to prevent it from looking too droopy as time passes but now im sad that it’s gone. Before it was more visible but now it’s at the same level as my nostrils…does it become more visible over time as my nose tip continues to drop or will I never see it again? I really regret doing this…I drew a picture for those confused about what I’m talking about.

I had a rhinoseptoplasty 1 year ago. Before I had a very symmetrical but huge nose. I wanted a straight nose, no slope at all! That was very important to me. Directly after rhino it looked quite straight.

However, the nose completely formed a slope (see side view), which I really dislike. Also the nose is very asymmetrical – both the bridge und the tip. I am now exactly 1 year post op and I have to decide whether I want a revision. Any opinions or suggestions? I am scared of making it worse but at the same time I am so unhappy with the result.

For context: I did the nose job in Zurich (Switzerland). The surgeon is very young and has only little experience – I completely regret choosing him.
