Melissa Rivera47 said:I actually started my own thread about getting a nose job maybe two months ago. I was so incredibly hyped up about it, asking all sorts of questions, went in for a consultation, and well... I've got my date set for three weeks from now. At this top specialist clinic, it's $14,000, everything seems perfect, and honestly, I just can't wait to finally get it done...

I was at a clinic back in the day—about six years ago (not cosmetic, just functional surgery, I was only 18)—and they used local anesthesia. So yeah, I was wide awake and heard and saw everything...
They have these little tiny hammers and those metal tools... they just keep tapping away. It was this young doctor operating on me, probably fresh out of med school, and the senior doctor was basically coaching her right there. Like, "Okay... good... bravo... a little more... OP! Easier... NO! NO... careful, you need to go easier..."
Man, and there I am, completely paralyzed, strapped down. Fully conscious, but unable to move an inch. If I could have moved, I swear I would've jammed one of those metal tools right into their heads and tossed that doctor right out the window...😈
Recovery took about five days. I had these bloody nasal tampons, and when they were pulling them out... it felt like my brain was literally leaking out...
