Rhinoplasty: Experiences and recovery tips?
in Health ·
Hi everyone,
I thought I'd share my experience here.
-Today marks day 35 since my nose surgery.
-I went with Wilson—it cost $13,200, including consultations. I decided on him because he gave me a sense of security, despite some of the comments on this forum. I guess he just struck me as someone who actually knows what they're doing.
-I had a septorhinoplasty (endonasal) to fix my septum and the tip of my nose.
-The whole thing was done under general anesthesia.
-Even though the surgery lasted about 3.5 hours (since my nose was broken and had healed crookedly), I didn't have much pain or bruising afterward. Even the doctor seemed surprised; I was only slightly yellow around the eyes. Maybe it’s because I've been taking those skin, hair, and nail vitamins from NaturalWealth for five months now.
-The packing was removed on day 5, and the external splint came off on day 10.
-A little over a month out, the profile looks great. It's straight, looks natural, and doesn't look out of place on my face.
-The tip and bridge are still a bit swollen, so I'm just waiting for that swelling to finally subside.
-I've been cleaning my nose with chamomile.
-Breathing is good. Some stitches have already fallen out, and the rest should be removed once I hit the two-month mark.
