sasha, you can't say that with such absolute certainty. Honestly, I’ve seen firsthand that a handful of girls ended up at Glumičić’s place for "touch-ups" because they just weren't happy with what they got from doctors like Tončić and several others... I didn't want to harp on it or give anyone bad press, but since you're being so bold about it, why shouldn't the rest of us speak up? Even though I don't think it's classy to drag people...
My aunt went to Glumičić about five years ago, and her nose looks exactly the same—just without that little bump she wanted gone. It all comes down to the consultation. If you're crystal clear about what you want, that's what you get...

Personally, I think he’s the absolute #1 guy for this. He’s got those procedures down to a science—I guarantee he’s done at least ten of them by now... they're basically muscle memory for him at this point.
I actually pulled the trigger on him myself once I saw what he did for Sanji Grohar (that former Miss USA winner). After she had three failed surgeries, he managed to take that total mess and turn it into such a beautiful, natural-looking nose. Most importantly, there were zero complications (though, if I'm being totally honest, that specific nose ended up looking a little too small for my personal taste)... but seriously, ALL PRAISE TO HIM.

Terry Morales44, I totally disagree with you there—I mean, if you don't explicitly tell the doctor exactly what you want for your nose, of course they’re just going to do whatever they think looks "best" in their own head... and honestly, it's not just with plastic surgeons, it's basically how all doctors operate.
I personally laid out everything I wanted to them—like, I was super specific about wanting minimal changes—and that's exactly what they did. When I went back for my follow-up, there were other girls in the waiting room who had also had nose jobs, and I swear, I didn't see a single one of them looking alike. One girl had this tiny, tiny nose that looked so fake and unnatural to me—though clearly, that's what she asked for—and another one had this pointy thing that was just ugly, in my opinion. But then there was a third girl with a gorgeous, totally natural-looking nose... it really just comes down to the patient and what they actually want. If you don't speak up and just leave it entirely in the surgeon's hands, they usually end up giving you those tiny, upturned noses that look nothing like actual beauty...

Hey everyone, so I’m sitting here at the four-month mark now. Honestly, the implant feels amazing—super comfortable—but man, I just can't get used to the way my profile looks. It’s not like there was some massive transformation or anything, the profile is fine, it really is... it's just that for me, the change is just... ugh, it's a lot to wrap my head around. I'll get used to it soon enough, I guess... I think I already am...
Anyway, I’ve been scrolling through all your posts, and regarding those little hiccups people were mentioning? I haven't dealt with a single one, thank God!!!

Quick question though—does anyone know how long the recovery takes before you can go scuba diving without any issues? I’ve got a trip to the coast coming up soon, and I'm wondering if it's even safe... I have this nagging feeling I shouldn't do it, because wouldn't the salt water totally irritate the internal wound??!!!!!

Adam Johnson said:Honestly, mine feels just as woody to the touch and painful too... like, if I accidentally bump into it, I’m seeing stars...😢

Exactly... it's a total disaster. Honestly, what kind of flaw is that? And don't even get me started on that stupid, unnatural color—it’s just hideous. Everything looks fine until my face starts turning red, then suddenly the tip of my nose looks totally bizarre. I mean, maybe I'm just being hyper-critical and noticing it more than everyone else, but people definitely see it too... even if they aren't making a big deal out of it.😠...

wanderingbadger94 said:I FELT THE EXACT SAME WAY—the tip of my nose felt totally numb, and honestly, that numbness stuck around for ages... it wasn't until about 7 months after surgery that I could actually feel my whole nose and the tip properly again. 😁
I was terrified at first too, because my nose felt completely wooden, like it didn't even belong to me, but everything is fine now, so I don't think you need to stress out too much

Thanks, that actually makes me feel a bit better. I know deep down this is all pretty normal, but I still got a little worked up... then again, I'm only at the 7-month mark since my surgery, so I guess I just have to hang in there and wait it out🤷...But really, the most important thing is knowing that this feeling eventually goes away🙂...

My threads ended up finishing right after the second month, but honestly, that color is driving me crazy—plus there's this stupid, woody texture that's really starting to bug me...

Hey everyone,
It’s been over two months since my surgery, and honestly, the tip of my nose still feels weirdly numb—like it’s totally out of it. After a workout, say after running for maybe half an hour, I’ll be all worked up and sweating, but the tip just stays this dull, throbbing sensation... almost like there's zero circulation going through that specific spot. I'm wondering if it's because they focused so much work right on the tip itself? Does anyone know how many months it actually takes for that weird feeling to finally go away???

Hey Rachel Barnes5, listen, can you please hit me up in my DMs? I really need to know who performed your surgery... thanks.

Hey Jesse Taylor7, regarding that swelling issue—honestly, nothing much to report. The only thing I’m noticing is that by early evening, the tip of my nose gets a little puffy, you know? It stays like that until morning, and then once around 10 or 11 AM, everything just settles back to normal. But hey, it’s totally expected since the surgery was only about six weeks ago... everything is still pretty fresh in terms of healing...
Do you still have that bump at the bridge of your nose?

Hey Jesse Taylor7, yeah, this is super interesting—it’s pretty obvious everyone is getting a different story, but hey, what can you do, right?!!! Though, I totally insisted on getting my check-up done earlier, so I actually called them mid-afternoon and managed to nail down an appointment ahead of schedule...

Laura Lee29, I paid eighteen hundred bucks for the surgery!

Hey Jesse Taylor7, regarding the bump—honestly, I don't have anything to say about it. I really hope it stays that way, because apparently things can shift all sorts of ways up until the 3-month mark. And those bumps? They're supposed to go away on their own, which is totally standard during rhinoplasty recovery—at least that’s what the experts claim!
I've got my follow-up scheduled for after month 3, how about you?

And as for the lymphatic drainage... man, I went in for one session and my face just absolutely blew up. They tried telling me it was "normal" for it to swell like that, and that I should just check in with my dermatologist later. Well, my derm told me to stop doing them immediately before things got even worse. Apparently, they recommend those sessions for severe swelling, but looking back at my own case—by the time I actually showed up for the appointment, the swelling wasn't even there anymore! So then, the lady working there had the nerve to tell me it would be "best" if I came in for 5 or 6 sessions... yeah, right. Like we don't know what's going on... (let's just say they probably have some little arrangement together, and they're more interested in lining their pockets than actually doing what's best for the patient). My dermatologist basically advised me to just massage my nose myself, and honestly, everything is looking great so far!!!

Hey everyone!
So, I had my rhinoplasty done about a month ago with Dr. Glumičić, and honestly? I couldn't be happier. Huge shoutout to the entire staff at the clinic—they were amazing—and of course, the doctor himself is just top-tier... seriously an incredible surgeon!
For me, the bruising cleared up after about two weeks, though the swelling hung around a bit longer—maybe closer to three weeks—but overall, everything is looking great. No bumps, no weird lumps, nothing like that... fingers crossed it stays this way!
