Let me be just one more person trying to talk some sense into you. You don't even have to read this whole thing, but let me get a few words in.
I’ve seen way too many people wreck their lives doing exactly what you're planning. And it isn't just them—most of the time, the whole family falls apart because parents just can't deal with it. You might want to think about your siblings, too, if you have any, because once you're deep in this, it becomes everyone's problem. I won't even go there, but if you get hooked on everything and end up with something like HIV or Hepatitis C, this won't be some "wild teenage phase" anymore. It'll be a lifetime of medication. And honestly? That "lifetime" is going to feel a lot shorter for you than it will for everyone else.
Look, I seriously don't know a single person who went down this road and came out saying, "Man, I'd do it all over again." Everyone regrets it, sooner or later.
You're 17. You've got your whole life ahead of you. Don't blow it just because you're bored.

Go see a doctor... if your skin feels red and warm to the touch, you might be dealing with an infection that needs antibiotics...
in any case, just go get checked out.

Under the new law, doctors from the hospital are actually allowed to pick up shifts at private practices during their off hours, so it's totally legal now.

I’ve had to go under general anesthesia twice now, and honestly, I haven't had a single bad experience with it. It was fine..
As for antibiotics, look—if you have to go in five times, you're going to end up on antibiotics five times. If you do it once, you're done. Plus, if you're seeing an experienced surgeon, the whole thing is pretty low-trauma. The pain isn't even that unbearable, especially since you'll still be a little looped from the anesthesia when the worst of it hits..

Love hearing from people who are actually happy!!!!
Just goes to show we’ve got some top-tier experts right here in the States, too.

Žgaljardić
He handled my final lip revision after a cleft repair along with a few other things
highly recommend

My grandma had a hip replacement done by Dr. Nemec, and she was super happy with him and the whole process

Sorry, I can't really help you there... but it's great to hear stories like this. It’s honestly fascinating how much medical tech has advanced lately. It sounds pretty motivating for anyone dealing with something similar, or maybe those guys waiting on surgery results who are feeling a bit anxious about what's coming next.

Hey, look—those tiny deviations from the reference range don't mean a thing, especially not your MCHC, provided your other red blood cell indices, hemoglobin, and RBC count are all looking solid. You've got nothing to worry about.

I had my nose job done by Dr. Žgaljardić in Omaha. My nose looks absolutely perfect now 🙂

It’s not even that bad. You wear the cast for seven days, then you just have to lay off the heavy sunglasses for a bit.
I saw a doctor in Santa Monica, and honestly, the guy was brilliant—his whole staff was top-tier too. And btw, my nose looks perfect now.

I was just at Dr. Žgaljardić’s office over at Optima recently, and my sister was telling me all about those new lasers they just brought in... I think I even saw an article about his skin tightening treatments in something like Healthline or maybe WebMD
