Anonymous said:I'm planning on getting nose surgery and I'm looking for some specifics... hoping you guys can help me out.
1. Does it hurt, and how long do you have to stay in the hospital afterward?
2. How much does it cost?
3. Is there a minimum age requirement for the procedure?
I actually had my nose busted up during a kickboxing match. My cartilage got shifted, so I went in just to fix that specific issue—not a full cosmetic reconstruction where they reshape everything from scratch.
1. You'll probably run a fever and feel a ton of pressure in your head right after, since everything is so fresh, but you usually start feeling better after two or three days. If I remember right, you stay in the hospital for about a week.
2. It didn't cost me a dime; I was at a general hospital because it was an injury, not a plastic surgery job, so my insurance covered it.
3. Is there even an age limit?
