catelet

Oops I just noticed my first paragraph got cut off somehow when I was editing, where I expressed regrets about your friend, @pbacid. Hope he's going to be okay.

 

I avoid general anesthesia as much as possible. I've been very happy with IV sedation for rhinoplasty, ba, etc. Many excellent surgeons only use IV sedation for rhinoplasties and ba's, of which I've had both. I'm hoping to have a facelift under local anesthesia.

I had my breast implants removed under local anesthesia--my choice. It was safe and it didn't hurt. The hardest part was the psychological aspect.

 

Your nose looks lovely--it's just going to get better and better with time. Congratulations!

 

Your nose looks great and I think your eyes do as well! What a great price for both.

 

Welcome! There are some great results on this forum for first-time noses especially! Some that come to mind are View plastic surgery--see @Sarahdomm's thread with her many after pictures, Dream (Dr. Park does closed rhinos), Trend's Dr. Lee (see pics from @lolipop32Swiss), and there are many others, including PS101's Dr. Paik where I had my own revision rhinoplasty. All of these are fair prices as well with no high-pressure selling. Good luck!

 

@FieryCucumber I have to agree with you about the makeup---in fact imo if a clinic shows a model with makeup in the "after" photo, it's only fair to show him/her with makeup in the "before" photo. I also take that into account when looking at result pics.

Honestly, if they showed a picture of me w/o makeup and then with makeup, (w/o ANY surgery), people would probably say great result! Lol. For starters I have no eyes w/o makeup!

Imagine the "after" photo of the model without a stitch of makeup on--almost unheard of. I just think the before and after pics should have similiar lighting, poses, and makeup.

 

Very nice. The nose tip often drops in time after surgery--you have to be patient to see your final rhino result but I think it looks really nice so far, as does your face! Your before face looked pretty good too though--I don't see any jowls or sagging skin in your pre-op pics.

 

Nice before and after:

 

Very nice result!

 

I'm wondering what he did to the first woman's chin from the profile view--it looks so good after and smooth--almost like he filled the little indent (if that makes sense) in the mid-chin area from the profile view.

 

You look amazing. I think you were wise about your chin--it looks perfect.

 

I love her nose too--amazing transformation!

 

Wow--beautiful result!

 

Thanks for your reply. Happy for you that you're liking your results and that it looks even more natural after your pregnancy! Bonus. I do realize I might need two rounds, but I'm okay with that.

 

I think your result looks great right now but it's way to early to judge unfortunately! The tip swelling is the last to resolve and takes up to a year. The upper bridge swelling diminishes first, then the mid-bridge area, and last the tip I'm told. I'm at 8 months and still have tip swelling I believe. You'll just have to be patient but it looks great so far.

 

How are you feeling @Peonyandi about your fat transfer to breasts now? I have been reading up on this and it's becoming much more common--I'm seeing a lot of satisfied reviews of it, in the U.S., SK, and elsewhere as well. I had my implants removed a few years ago and I'd like just a bit more fullness that I think fat would be perfect for.

 

@ReneRene you look great and thanks for sharing. I'd love to hear more about the fat grafting to breasts you're planning. I only want a modest increase. Do you mind sending me a pm? Thanks!

 

I should add that I've seen mostly good results from fat grafting on here though--I wouldn't mind having forehead fat myself. But sometimes in the U.S., you'll see an older woman with a puffy fat-grafted face with puffy lips, and it does *not* make them look younger, unfortunately--as in the pic I noted above-- hope that makes sense.

 

@frozenqueen you look great.

@klindseigh thanks for the tip--I'm interested in fat transfer for breast augmentation so I"ll check it out.

 

She is attractive but the "after" looks way overdone which is a telltale sign of fat grafting--it's not a look I would want. I hope for her sake the cheeks come down. I don't think making the face bigger/fatter improves anyone except those with a gaunt, thin, long face beforehand. Just my two cents.

 

Everytime I see your photos I think you look like Kendall Jenner, @Sarahdomm, and I mean that as a compliment! Lovely results.

 

@BeautyloverOli does Dr. Oh obviously does great work--does he do facelifts as well?

 

You look fabulous--I definitely see a difference--a beautiful difference! Thank you so much for sharing.

 

Also I suspect Scarlett Johannsen has cheek implants--yours are perfect on your lovely caucasion face.

 

Wow sorry, but to me your pic looks like the "after" many people are going for. I wouldn't touch your face. Maybe play with cosmetics if you want a change like @MissOrange mentioned! Further, you don't have a square jaw!--it looks perfect, as does your nose imo and your lips please they're my dream lips lol. Remember that there is always the chance with plastic surgery of looking worse. "The enemy of good is better." Please, you are already a very beautiful young woman--gorgeous in fact!
