Jamie Sullivan55 said:So, I finally had my rhinoplasty this past Friday at Tony Bennett’s clinic. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about him; he actually did my aunt's nose too. I've dealt with breathing issues my entire life, and while other surgeons kept insisting I needed sinus lining work, he shot that idea down immediately. He walked me through why that would be pointless and explained the actual consequences.
In the end, we decided to just focus on the aesthetics, which is honestly more than enough for me.

When I was younger, I broke my nose, and it’s been gradually tilting to the side ever since. Fingers crossed it stays straight now. They pulled the packing out this morning, and being able to breathe normally again feels incredible. Plus, I can actually see the tip of my nose now (it used to droop way more than Doris Day's), and I am just so, so happy.

Do you happen to have any photos of your nose? If you could send one over via PM, that would be great.🙂🙂

I was dealing with a significant hump and a pretty severe deviated septum, but he did an incredible job; he actually got me into surgery just a day after my initial consultation. The procedure itself wasn't painful at all since we used local anesthesia. Afterward, the pain was negligible, more of a stinging sensation if anything. The toughest part was definitely the discomfort from the nasal packing, the burning, and the watery eyes—it led to a few sleepless nights. But even this early in the process, I can already tell it was totally worth it. I’m counting down the two months until I’m fully recovered and my nose looks perfect. Huge thanks to Tony Soprano and his team; they are incredibly professional and, above all, genuinely kind.

Is it possible to see a photo of the nose?

Any chance you could send over a photo?

I went through the surgery... and honestly, it was a nightmare. Getting the Tampon removed? The pain is just indescribable. Now that the worst is over, people say it’s easy and you just forget about it, but they don't get it—for me, removing that Tampon was a total meltdown.
The second thing is my nose. It's incredibly swollen right now... I can't even begin to tell what it actually looks like.
Before the surgery, everything looked fine; there were just tiny bumps you could feel if you touched them, but they weren't really visible to the eye.
Everyone keeps telling me, "Just wait until the swelling goes down, it'll settle," but when I look in the mirror, I have to turn the lights off because I just want to cry. 🙂
It feels bigger than it ever was. It's wider, and the tip looks like a ping pong ball... God help me. 🙂

Who did your surgery?

rapidfalcon39 said:I’ve been lurking on this forum for about a year now, weighing things up: should I actually go through with nose surgery or not? And if so, where? My nose is long, has a bump, and whenever I laugh, the tip drops down—it honestly feels like it grows more every year. Well, here I am; tomorrow marks exactly two weeks since my procedure with Tony junior, and I couldn't be happier. 🙂 The absolute worst part? Definitely those nasal tampons. Local anesthesia was fine. As for pain before or after the surgery—none at all, I didn't even need a single pill. Day 6—I was going crazy just pacing around the apartment, so I headed out to Westgate with my sister for some shopping, wearing my splint 🙂 ooo, I really needed that 🙂 Day 7—I took the splint off, and it was like nothing had happened—I went straight out. Just a tiny bruise, maybe 4-5 mm under one eye, which I covered with concealer and that was that. It was totally worth it 🙂 One thing though: it was incredibly important to me that I "clicked" with the doctor right away... and we did. Within the first thirty minutes of talking, I knew he was the only one who was going to operate on me. And I wasn't wrong. So, trust your gut instinct 🙂 Cheers...

Do you happen to have a photo of what your nose looks like now? I'm dealing with a similar issue, so I'm curious about his work. If you could send me a PM, that would be great. 🙏

From everything I’ve been reading on this forum—and believe me, I’ve read a ton of it—it seems like there isn't a single doctor out there who hasn't completely messed up someone's nose. :S So, honestly, maybe my best bet is to just leave things alone and do nothing at all.

Has anyone here actually had surgery with Dr. Glumicic? I know he’s worked on quite a few celebrities, so I was wondering if any "regular folks" have gone through the process with him? Can anyone share their experience?
