When you look at this, we’re talking about a price point between 10,000 and 11,000 $0.00—and that covers both aesthetics and functionality. In my experience, you rarely get one without the other...

But here's the thing... my stupid nose looks different every single day. I am being completely serious. Over the last three or four days, I've started noticing this bump on the left side—a bump that definitely wasn't there before! It's enough to drive me absolutely insane.😕
steelangler88, I noticed a lump on the right side of my nose today.. what’s going on with yours now? Has it gone away?
Greetings, everyone!
I had my nose surgery performed by Dr. Glušac about 10 days ago. Everything went absolutely super; I have nothing but praise for the doctor! I didn't experience any pain at all—which was surprising, because I was fully expecting at least a little discomfort once the anesthesia wore off. Honestly, it felt like I hadn't even undergone surgery. We didn't use general anesthesia, just enhanced local, so there was no nausea or vomiting when I woke up; I felt perfectly fine. I drifted off lightly, woke up gently, and even had some vivid dreams! And mind you, I hadn't eaten or drunk anything for two hours before the procedure. My doctor explained that he utilizes modern anesthetic techniques specifically designed to prevent nausea, paired with a top-tier anesthesiologist... I also want to give a shout-out to the entire staff; they were super! 👍
As soon as I woke up and "came to," I headed straight home.
The very next day, I returned to the clinic to have the packing removed, which was an absolute lifesaver because breathing through your mouth is miserable—it dries everything out... 😠 It’s great that they can remove the packing so quickly; in my opinion, that's a huge relief! If I was afraid of anything regarding this procedure, it was definitely the packing—having two meters of gauze shoved up your nose sounds terrifying—but this doctor uses a specialized sponge instead of bulky gauze, which is much easier and faster to extract. It’s a little awkward, but it doesn't hurt since the sponge is only about 8 inches long (I actually saw it when he pulled it out). So, that part went super as well!
My cast was removed after five days, though he left a few small bandages on my nose that I took off two days later.
I should emphasize that Dr. Glušac performs the rhinoplasty using a closed technique, meaning he doesn't open the entire nose but works through a single nostril using specialized instruments. It's a super technique: faster recovery times and less bruising.
You guys probably care about the bruising... it's inevitable, but the severity varies from person to person. On a scale of 1 to 5, I would say I was a 3. I had bruising, but nothing extreme! Today is my tenth day, and there's still a tiny bit left; I can just cover it with concealer, and it should definitely vanish in a few days. My nose is still swollen, too. From a profile view, I look super, but when I look in the mirror, I look like Miss Piggy. I'm hoping that clears up in about ten days.
The price was $10 $0.00, and the follow-up appointments are free! I didn't even pay for the initial consultation, and I don't have any special connections or anything.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask! I hope I've been helpful!
