My advice? Go see everyone on your shortlist for a consultation. Just go until you find the one you actually trust—that's what matters. I was torn between Tončić and Bastaić... but once I met Bastaić, I canceled my appointment with Tončić right then and there. I just knew. If you want more specifics, just ask—I actually had my dressings removed today...🙂the cost usually runs anywhere from $1,500 to $2,000, depending on which surgeon you pick and how you pay.

It's been eight days since my surgery—finally feeling like I'm doing okay...
There’s just one thing—I had that tampon removed four days ago, and I still can't breathe through my nose. One nostril is relatively clear, but the other... basically nothing.

I'm curious about everyone's experience—how many days did it take before you actually started breathing through your nose again?

If I even manage to catch some sleep, I’m waking up to a dry throat and pain. It's enough to drive me a little crazy...

Hey, so it’s day 6 post-op for me. Breathing through my nose feels okay for the most part—it gets stuffy every now and then, though... My doctor had me using Benil nasal drops from the moment they took the tampons out until the packing was removed today. Now he wants me to ditch those and just switch to Aquamaris whenever I feel the need. Up until now, I've been using the drops every four hours because once that window passes, my nose clogs up and I'm stuck breathing through my mouth again...

Hey everyone,

I’ve been planning to get nose surgery for quite a while now, but I just can't pull the trigger on a surgeon—stuck deciding between Glumičić, Tončić, or Bastaić. Has anyone here actually gone to Bastaić? Or maybe you have some intel on him... since he doesn't have his own website, I can't really compare his work against Tončić or Glumičić.
