Laura Castillo7 said:How long have you had it? Since the beginning or did it just show up? And what does it feel like—is it hard or soft?

I'm not exactly sure when it started, but as my nose began to flatten, it just became noticeable... It isn't exactly soft; feels more like some misplaced cartilage to me, though my doctor claims it's just swelling! It's not a huge bump, but I see it and it drives me absolutely crazy!!!

Laura Castillo7 said:Why on earth would you want to change it? You don't like how it looks or what? What's even the issue?

It’s not exactly perfectly straight. There's this little bump right on the tip... my doctor told me it just needs more time to settle, but honestly, I'm starting to doubt him since it's been almost six months already!

Thanks! You totally made my day!🙂 So, which surgeon did you go with?

It’s been six months since my surgery, so now I'm wondering—how much more is my nose actually going to change over the next six months?

Has anyone here actually gone under the knife with Dr. Boric? If you have, please reach out! I need to know what I'm getting into!!! 🙄

Maria Diaz79 said:Anyone else out there who’s had nose surgery? Tell me the truth—is it normal to still have a little bit of spotting on day two? And how long did you actually keep that gauze pressed up there? I'm reading online that bleeding after they pull the packing can be a complication, and now I'm low-key freaking out. Is this normal or should I be worried?😢

I was changing my pad constantly, which meant my tampons weren't even catching everything—not that it was a huge deal. But once I pulled them out, the bleeding just wouldn't stop. They had to pack me with gauze, so I was basically on lockdown for three days. Honestly? Not a big deal since you get used to it. And when they pull that gauze out? You don't feel a thing!

Laura Castillo7 said:What kind of hematoma? What even is that? Is it going to go away? Why does it happen? Look, I know that's a ton of questions, but this stuff scares the hell out of me. I don't want to end up looking disfigured.

A hematoma is basically just swelling... after surgery, it’s totally normal for your nose and the area around your eyes to be swollen—some people more than others—and then it slowly dies down. It all depends on the person, too. You probably read that it takes about 6 months to a year for the nose to get its final shape. Honestly, my nose looks way better now than before, so it didn't disfigure me; I just expected it to look even smaller... and this tiny little hematoma I have is barely noticeable, but it should clear up... and hey, I'm not charging you for this advice.

Laura Castillo7 said:Does anyone know what Glumicic is charging for a nose job? And what about Boriću-nisam?

Hey, I was just at Boriću-nisam, and the price is 10. $0.00It’s been about two months since my surgery. There's this tiny hematoma right on the tip of my nose that I supposedly have to massage away—at least, that’s what he tells me. Honestly, my nose looks fine, actually better than before, but I was really hoping for even more reduction... Still, it looks totally natural. You could never tell I had work done, unlike some people out there where you can clearly see the surgery, like celebrities such as Selena Gomez or Katy Perry.

She’ll probably deal with it for a while until things settle down. It takes time for everything to deflate—honestly, if there was more than just filler involved, I'd say even a year or two.

wearynomad88 Could just be a hematoma. If that's the case, don't sweat it. 😉

Jesse Taylor7 If they're shrinking the nose, they gotta fix the bridge too. 🙂

I really hope so... It's not a disaster, the nose actually looks better than before, but I was expecting way more.🤷

Carol Lopez28 said:Hey, I don't know anything about his work, sorry, but maybe someone else here knows... You think it isn't straight? Like it's tilting slightly at the front? I really hope things improve for you, I'm crossing my fingers...😉 It's been 19 days since my surgery. It's still a bit swollen, but mostly flat, so I can't really tell you much...:/

It’s not a total disaster, but I see it... When I look from the side, where the bump used to be, it's flat, but further down toward the top, there's this little protrusion, like it's sagging slightly. He claims it's just swelling and tells me to massage it, but honestly? I'm skeptical...

Hey everyone! Has anyone here actually had surgery with Dr. Miller? I went under the knife about two months ago, but my nose still looks totally uneven. He keeps telling me it just needs more time to swell down, but honestly? I’m terrified it’s never going to look right...
