Does anyone know if Lexapro affects memory at all?
I'm staring down some major deadlines right now and I really need to focus on studying, so I'm wondering—is it better to skip my dose while I'm hitting the books, or what?
cosmicmoose112 said:If you want my honest opinion, just stay far away from him. I personally know a woman whose nasal pyramid was completely ruined during a rhinoplasty attempt to narrow her nasal bones. On top of that, he was incredibly arrogant about it—basically telling her that it was an inherent risk and that, as a surgeon, he held zero responsibility for the outcome. He’s quite blunt and condescending during consultations; if you go alone, believe me, you will notice it immediately. Now, I’m not suggesting a plastic surgeon needs to be some sweet, sugary, overly affectionate person—I’ve had my fill of those types—but a basic level of human decency wouldn't hurt in a situation like this.

There was once a girl on a forum who mentioned he actually told her that if she wasn't happy with the results, she should just sue him and find a lawyer, implying he’d dodged plenty of lawsuits before and didn't lose any sleep over it. My advice? For that kind of money—and trust me, it is not cheap, we are talking upwards of $3,000 for a rhinoplasty—you can find someone much more skilled, competent, and ethical. Before you commit, go see Glumičić instead.

I know he isn't exactly the most attractive guy either. I actually went to him for a consultation last year, but I couldn't bring myself to agree to the price. In the end, I didn't choose anyone because I thought I'd wait a bit longer to have the surgery, but now I feel like I need to just get it over with. Honestly, I'm torn between him and Glumičić. Since I've already sat through consultations with both of them, I really don't have the energy to go back and do the whole process all over again.
With Glumičić, my real fear is that he'll give me one of those "cookie-cutter" noses—the kind where people can spot from a mile away that I've had work done, especially since it's him. I have absolutely no desire to become someone's walking advertisement, particularly since I haven't met a single person who hasn't had a bad experience with his bedside manner.

Besides, I'm really worried about the tip and the frontal view. A friend of mine had surgery with him; while her profile looks great, the front view is just... God help us. It's huge, thick, and basically looks exactly the same as before.

It's not like I have a hump or a massive nose; I just want to refine the tip, narrow it slightly, and drop the profile a little. But I definitely do not want a bulbous nose. To me, the frontal appearance is way more important than the profile, and I have a nagging feeling that Glumičić isn't quite the right fit for what I need.
Can someone please DM me regarding the current pricing for a rhinoplasty revision with Dr. Kujundžić?
Based on his portfolio and what a buddy of mine went through, he does incredible work—he really pays attention to the tip and the overall profile.
Alex Moore62 said:Honestly, looking at her profile, her nose seems way too short—just tiny and unnatural. In some front-facing shots, it almost looks pig-like because the nostrils are flared up so much. Then in other photos, it looks better, and I don't know what to say; I haven't sat down to really study her face in quite a while.

If you ask me, she has a very masculine head shape, so the surgeon probably did the absolute best he could given the proportions. Compared to the size of her head, any nose would look undersized. I don't think he actually shortened it; I think he just smoothed out that hump. As for how she looks from the front, who knows? It’s hard to judge someone when they aren't a perfect baseline, so I won't even use her as an example.

A friend of mine had surgery with him back when he was still working at Mercury. It went well; he did a solid job...
Chloe Murphy35 said:I went to Ostojic. I had basically everything on my nose operated on that could be touched.😬 Ugh, because I’d broken my nose on the right side, everything was crooked and I ended up with that infamous bump. Plus, my airway clearance was 0% on the left nostril and only 60% on the right. While my breathing is better now, aesthetically speaking? It’s a disaster. I didn't drop 2,000 bucks just to get an average job done. 🙂 He didn't even follow through on half of what he promised during the consultation. A friend actually asked me once why the bump was still visible after the surgery. Sure, it's smaller, but it’s still there. From the profile view, the nose looks lovely, but from the semi-profile and the front? Absolutely terrible.

I actually considered going to him myself, but I ultimately decided against it. Looking at his website, it seemed like the front view of the patients stayed exactly the same as before the operation—it's as if he only knows how to fix a profile and calls it a day.
Chloe Murphy35 said:Hey everyone. It’s been two months since my surgery, and honestly, my nose is still looking completely wonky. I get that swelling is part of the deal and takes a while to subside, but good grief—this bump is incredibly obvious whenever I look at my left profile or even a three-quarter view. My doctor claims the bone has only just started to fuse and tells me I need to be patient, insisting that the hump will eventually settle down and disappear. Yeah, right. As if. And don't even get me started on how much lower my right side is compared to the left; there's this weird indentation, almost like something is missing. o.O Now I’m wondering, is there any chance I can go back in for a revision, or am I going to be stuck paying out of pocket for a correction?😢

So, who did you end up going to for the surgery, and what exactly was the procedure they performed on your nose?
Regarding Blanka Vlasic's profile, I think she looks fine with how her previous work turned out, but looking at her front profile? I honestly can't say. It’s almost as if nothing changed at all; in fact, she even seems to have developed this little line on her forehead, almost as if the surgeon removed far too much cartilage.
Has anyone here actually had rhinoplasty done by Glumicic? I’m looking for someone willing to share their honest experience—how satisfied are you with the results overall?
Is he just good at making the profile look nice, or does he handle the front view well too? I’m specifically wondering if he can properly shape the tip and narrow the bridge effectively.
Please, any information at all would be greatly appreciated.
Can anyone tell me who has seen Dr. John Doe before? I'm curious to know how satisfied you were with his work.
Also, if anyone happens to know the approximate cost for revision rhinoplasty with either John Doe or Jane Doe, could you please send me a private message?
I’ve actually had nose surgery once before; it isn't disfigured or anything, I just really want a smaller, different shape.
So, if anyone has any intel at all, I would truly appreciate it!
Thanks
You really ought to have demanded a full, detailed breakdown of everything he performed. After all, you paid good money for this surgery, and if it’s cosmetic, you absolutely need to know the exact specifics of what was done. If you ever find yourself needing a secondary procedure with a different plastic surgeon down the road, you'll want that documentation—if nothing else, do it for your own peace of mind. 🙂
But look, don't let it get to you too much. It’s highly likely he just centered things slightly off, which is probably why one side is swelling more than the other. Since he didn't perform the exact same movements on both sides, the reaction won't be identical. It'll settle down, the swelling will subside, and everything should be fine in five 🙂 days or so.
I didn't either, which is why the left side ended up looking way more trashed than the right. You could tell just by how much it was swelling; once all that inflammation finally went down, the area was so incredibly flat it almost looked unnatural.
Didn't the doctor give you a full rundown of what he actually did during the surgery?
Look, I’ve been through this myself, so you really shouldn't let it get under your skin. Once all that swelling finally dies down, everything will be completely flat—so flat, in fact, that you'll be able to use a level to measure it perfectly.
Could someone please let me know—or just shoot me a DM if you prefer—what the typical price range looks like for an esresca procedure? I’m specifically looking into the costs for esretica performed by the Actress, Ostojica, or Bagatin. If anyone has any intel or first-hand info on their rates, I’d truly appreciate it. Thanks.
