George Ramos11 said:ruggedstag20, sorry if this sounds a bit bold, but I actually wanted to ask you—are you, uh, gay? Anyway, it’s officially been three weeks since my surgery, and I can still feel that bump at the bridge of my nose that everyone keeps pointing out, though it’s barely visible. I’m guessing it has something to do with the "zero point," you know, where the shape starts spreading out (since for some people that point is higher up, making the nose look like it grows from a higher spot). If I understood correctly from those quick consultations, the surgeon levels everything right at that specific point. So, I guess if that's your profile, you can't drastically change the bridge, or maybe—and this is just how I took it—if that zero point is too pronounced, you can't really get that "saddle" look because you can't shorten anything "below that point." Honestly, I can't stand the word "saddle" when we talk about guys' noses; I feel like there should be at least one masculine feature left, like a straight nose, even if it looks better on girls. The tip has also dropped quite a bit, and I have to admit I actually liked it better before, but those are just small details, and I'm sure someone won't love or hate you based on a few degrees of slope on your nose. I'm genuinely curious, though—where did you all hear that they "break the bones" versus just "spreading" them? Why didn't anyone mention that to me, and why should I even care? And which part of the nose shows the most obvious changes during the healing process?
(btw, don't get too hung up on tiny imperfections. Just look at the people around you; most of them have terrible noses and look totally fine. It's not all about that little bump; attitude matters too, you gotta know how to "wear" your nose ;) )
Take care,

Look, I'm definitely not gay, and honestly, I don't really hold any prejudices against anyone; I just let people live their lives (btw, I've been in a happy relationship for 7 years now, and we're getting married next year). Anyway, the reason I shared my thoughts is this... I see people on here saying they aren't happy with the actual outcome of the procedure, and yeah, I get it, there's always a downside to aesthetic surgery. But I wanted to share what I'm going through personally (I had my surgery exactly three weeks and two days ago), specifically regarding how people who had surgery just a few weeks ago are already obsessing over revisions, instead of just being patient while the swelling and the whole thing settles down, which takes weeks... even months. My point is, it really takes a few months before you can give a solid opinion.
Anyway, I won't waste any more time writing or explaining my thoughts, since it seems some people don't really appreciate it, or worse, they completely misinterpret what I'm saying. Sending big greetings to everyone and thanks for all the info I've read on this forum; it gave me the courage to go through with a procedure that has truly made my life better. Best to everyone!

So, I’m at the three-week mark today since my surgery, and honestly, my nose seems to be changing every single day (I swear I can spot even the tiniest micron-level shifts). I guess I’m just naturally an impatient guy and I kind of want everything handled ad hoc, but when it comes to stuff like this, things just don't happen overnight... I suppose you all just have to stay chill; everything will settle into place eventually.😉)) When I look back at photos from maybe ten days ago, there's a pretty noticeable difference in the bridge height—it looks a bit more dropped right now—but it's starting to take on that specific shape I was actually aiming for... it's slowly trending upward. I mean, the nasal root isn't quite where I want it yet, but reading through the posts on here, it seems like that's totally normal for a procedure that's still relatively fresh... But trust me, even if it stayed looking like this (which it won't, it'll probably just get better over time), it is still a hundred times better than how it looked before. hehe.
Sweet dreams friends!

I guess Toncicev's counterintelligence has pretty much lost all sense of proportion in its jealousy, maybe. 🙂

I'll shoot you a DM with a scan of my receipt, so maybe you can take a look and decide for yourself if we're actually looking at satisfied patient revenues or something else entirely. Honestly, if you're really as sharp as you claim to be, you should probably just track the IP address to see where those comments are actually coming from. Good luck with your little investigation.☕

George Ramos11 said:So, I finally took the mold off this morning (it’s been 7 days since the procedure) and honestly, the results are better than I ever imagined... I was peeking a little under the bandage near my eye, and if I’m being totally real, I wasn't expecting it to look this good (maybe those nurses have some kind of magic touch too... seriously, it looks wow!)... The nose is basically perfect, especially considering there's still some swelling and light bruising under my eyes.. I guess you could sum up the whole experience as just one really pleasant ride that's gone way beyond what I expected so far... As for Dr. Toncic, I’d describe him—and his whole team—as incredibly professional and easy to be around. They just radiate this confidence and expertise, but they stay humble and keep things grounded in reality... To be honest, my wishes (and then some) were just translated through his work without me even having to give much direction.. It was actually interesting because I didn't push my own specific ideas on him; I just listened closely to his professional opinion, and this result is just proof of who the real master of the craft is. In my book, he should be the first choice when picking a plastic surgeon.. Plus, his pricing is the most reasonable out there, and I don't think anyone wants to just throw money away when you could save it for a rainy day in the bank... so, fingers crossed it stays this way.. anyway, I'm still a bit stunned because, looking at it realistically, I wasn't expecting miracles, especially since nobody had checked in on how I was doing or how the outcome looked (I guess setting high standards has just become routine for them now) so I kind of convinced myself they might have messed something up.. yeah.. For anyone out there where fear and nerves are the only thing holding you back from a better look, I sincerely recommend this doctor. The procedure itself was absolutely painless, and I think I've said enough about him and the clinic staff already..

I'm backing everything George Ramos11 wrote. I just took my mold off at the clinic today and I can tell you all, this is probably the best day of my life. For anyone sitting on the fence about which surgeon to pick, my advice is Dr. Toncic and his medical team. I know, I try.👍👍
