It's really assuring to watch someone else's journey when going through the recovery of a septorhinoplasty. I'm 7 weeks post-op and can literally relate with so much of what you are saying. The whole recovery process can be a nightmare at times, but it can be comforting seeing other people's journey. Hope to see more updates in the future
We're glad you could relate, and that's honestly why we wanted to share this video as it's easy to feel alone during recovery sometimes! We'll definitely continue to update along the way 😊
It is really natural and suitable to your face. It is currently 2.5 weeks post op, my nose is much better-looking than the nose on the cast removal day (I hate my nose on the cast removal date). Regarding the size, I had 2 nose jobs. I really achieved a smaller size of nose in my second nose job in which I did alarsplasty as well.
Thank you! 😊 Glad to hear your recovery is going well, interesting that you had an alarsplasty too your second time around. Cast off day is definitely the worst, it can only be up from there 😂
Thank you so much for documenting this, I can relate to everything you Guys said ❤😍 this really helps, I am almost 2 mth post op and my tip is still very much swollen but my tip also dropped, hopefully it will drop even more, still a bit piggy
You're so welcome, glad it was helpful for you! 💕Nobody expects their nose to look as weird as it does in those first few weeks 😂😂 We're all in it together haha
Hi are your nostrils still stiff or soft after three months please? I am 9 weeks post op crying everyday 😢I regret so much I did in Turkey one my nostril is big another is small and slightly bent to right 😢😢😢
We don't have stiff nostrils but our nostrils weren't actually touched during surgery so that never changed! However our septums are still sort of hard and numb feeling, I recently spoke to someone who had her nose done years ago and says it never quite feels the same, but most of the changes happen within the first year so try not to panic! So sorry to hear that you have had this difficult experience😢 If you're not already, definitely join the Facebook group "Rhinoplasty UK, Europe and World-wide", it's a really helpful and reassuring place to be if you're not happy with your surgery and wondering what to do next. Lots of love xx
There was a good 1-2 months where we could only breathe "normally" after doing a saline spray and/or lightly blowing our noses because of the constant congestion! After that it got better but there was still more congestion than normal. We're now approaching month 5 PO and we actually said to each other the other day we finally feel like we can breathe without the constant congestion and nose blowing. So it may take time but don't panic! It depends on your skin thickness and swelling x
Both of us were lucky to avoid sneezing in that first week post op (even though we know a lot of people feel like they need to sneeze more with the tampons, we didn't feel this way!), so we can't comment on that. But sneezing afterwards didn't feel painful, just make sure to sneeze out of your mouth so there's no pressure on your nose!
I am 5 weeks post op and my surgeon allowed me to blow my nose 1 week after, which I thought was insane lol I didn’t have any splints put in either (also kind of odd because I had a septoplasty).He told me I didn’t need them I guess. Sneezing with my mouth open I did up until week 3 and then I was able to sneeze through my nose week 4 with no issues or pain. Thank goodness because the allergies are killer this year.
So sorry to hear that 😭 You will get there, trust the healing process, we're now nearly 5 months down the line and our new noses feel like a completely normal part of our lives, even Em who had the initial swelling and pigginess!
This is so common! I hated my cast off nose but I hated it even more the following week 😂 At 3 weeks the swelling seemed to go down, and now at 3 months the tip has swelled back up again! It really is a long waiting game 🥲
Same ! I went into a post-op depression because I LOVED my nose at the cast removal and then it got more and more swollen, looking bigger than before ... But it's normal. Usually you have to wait 6 months to 1 year for the nose to get unswollen (my surgeon said I need to wait 18 months for the final result, due to my mid-thick skin). You need to be patient and stop obsessing over it ❤️ you will have your dream nose, don't worry too much !!
After 2-3 weeks post op is the time we stopped obsessing over it so it was a lot better by that point! Don't worry, it does get better even if it feels like it never will!!

How long did it take you to breathe through your nose normally? It’s been two weeks since my surgery and I’m still congested

Is it painful to sneeze after getting a nose job?
