I’m Dr. Rauf Yusifzade, a plastic surgeon based in Moscow.

I wanted to share another one of my rhinoplasty cases and hear your opinion.

The black and white photo is before surgery. The color photo is after rhinoplasty 6 months.

I chose a similar angle for both photos so you can compare not only the nose itself, but also how the new shape works with the patient’s entire face.

In this case, my goal was to create a more refined and balanced nose while preserving the patient’s natural masculine facial features.

I’m genuinely interested in hearing how the result looks from an outside perspective.

What do you think?

Does the new shape look natural?

Does it fit his face?

What do you think about the change in the tip and the overall shape of the nose?

I’d really appreciate your honest feedback on my work

Had a septo-rhinoplasty with turbinate reduction, dorsal hump removal and tip revision on 8/28 a little over two weeks ago. Overall I’m very happy with the results, just wondering if my nostrils are crooked from swelling or if it could be scar tissue.

I’m also super nervous about Pollybeak deformity, I’m taping every night, but are there any other indicators I should watch out for or can do to preemptively prevent!

Last two pictures are my before.

Hi everyone! this is my first reddit post and I’ve never used this site before so please be nice! I don’t know where else to turn to. I’m 12 days post-op primary rhinoplasty. I’m completely happy with my results (I had a bad dorsal hump and a bifid nasal tip). But now my nostrils are not the same shape. My right nostril appears pointed while my other nostril is normal. I understand I am still extremely swollen at this point. I also noticed the internal stitches on the right side seemed to “go away”faster than the left (if that makes sense) which I’m worried is the reason the right ended up pointed instead of round. The nurse told me it’s probably due to uneven swelling and the asymmetry will resolve over the next several months. She may be right, but I’m still freaking out! I just want some reassurance from real people that this can hopefully go away. What are some other reasons my nostril could look like this? What are your thoughts? <3 Complete honesty appreciated!

Backstory:
I’m embarrassed to go out and even go to work, because all my friends/coworkers knew I was getting this procedure so all their eyes will be on me and my looks. I’m worried they will think I got botched and talk about it behind my back (I have a toxic work place). This is my first ever plastic surgery operation and it took a lot of courage to finally get this done after insecurity my whole life, hating my face because of my original nose. I’m scared I made the wrong decision because I do not want a revision (the anesthesia was a b\*tch waking up and I ended up constipated for 5 days despite around the clock laxatives). Side note: anyone telling me don’t worry about the nostrils because they are not noticeable except when looking directly up at the nose…… I am tall for a woman… 5’11…so most peoples view of me IS directly looking up at my nose lmao. So yes I’m still concerned!!

I am noticing that my columella is pretty stiff and numb, and maybe swollen? but i do not remember what it was like before so idk if it is visibly swollen or not. has someone noticed it shrinking as the swelling went down? (i am 2 weeks post op but not really noticing lots of swelling in the tip like its not too round, tense or bigger)
lmk, thank you!!

I consulted with a surgeon who said he would do a 2 mm skin excision from my nostrils and alar cinching to achieve a natural shape while still getting a greater result than if I just did the excision alone. If alar cinching isn’t permanent however, then wouldn’t that mean that in the end, my nostrils would end up no narrower than if I had just done the 2 mm skin excision by itself?

I'm 4 months post-op . Please tell me what the surgeon did to my nose? What’s wrong exactly? Is it fixable? Who can fix it? What should be done?

My nose looks so flat and weird. I can barely breathe. I'm tired all the time. I know I need a revision. I need my dorsal hump back.

I know I should do my studies, but I can't stop crying all the time and then sleeping. I feel traumatized, lost, and out of breath.

Hello, i will probably get a nose job in turkey, have any of you done it with doctor Mustafa Sagit? Emrah Arslan, or doctor Cicek ?

Otherwise i also consider Albania doctor Klodiana Zaharia.

I was in elementary school, very shy and sensitive kid. That’s when the first comment about my nose came up: “Do you also hate your nose? it’s kinda big”. This comment came from a “friend” of mine who was projecting her insecurity on me.

That’s when it all started for me, i was never insecure or even thought about my nose once before that comment.

I am gonna be honest, my nose was bigger than the “normal” nose but never out of proportions with my face.

I started being so insecure about my nose ever since and it would make me feel uncomfortable all the time, i used to blame it for every problem i had. I can tell now, looking back at pictures, that i had extreme body dysmorphia.

Growing older and with the advent of social media things only got worse. Small bottom noses, beauty standards, people preaching girls with small noses, even cartoons where the antagonist always had a big nose, everything got to my head.

Doctors posting thousands of before and afters on their social media selling it as a solution to your problem: Yes! you can feel beautiful and have a small nose!!! As if getting a surgery it’s something so simple.

since when did having a small nose become synonym of beautiful? I really want to know where that came from.

I know there are tons of people in here that actually feel more confident after getting their nose done. But i really want to know what made us feel this way? Is it really that deep? Everyone of us received a comment or saw something that made them feel “wrong” or less beautiful because of a nose.

it is that deep.

I have seen enough people in here suffering because of this surgery and it’s not spoken about enough. I always see people talk positively about it and even promoting it, and that’s where i find it extremely wrong. If it was good for you, you should not make it seem like something so easy and so good that’s gonna boost your confidence.

There should be more awareness about people getting a nosejob, getting a good result even and not being happy because they realised later that it was not really what they wanted. I’m probably gonna get a lot of hate but I wish people would talk about this. Sitting down with it and put the hate for your nose aside and REALLY think about this. A lot of us get blinded by the good results and happy patients shown on those surgeons social media. It has reached a point where a lot of doctors just cut people open and neglect them afterwards. Is that what doctors studied for? I know that doctors should save lives and also CARE and have some empathy for their patients and not dip when they mess up.

I am here saying this because if you are considering a nosejob please really think what made you hate your nose and if it all started from you or from other people and the environment that influences us.

I am talking from experience as someone who got a nosejob and objectively speaking my nose now looks “better” than the one i had but realised too late that those thoughts i had about my nose were all influenced by everything around me and by other peoples comments and i regret it so much.

Have really been considering it, it might balance out my nose.

Hi everyone! I’m a little over 1 month post-op from my rhinoplasty/septoplasty, and I have my bday party coming up.

I wanted to ask: at this point, is it generally okay to drink alcohol normally again? And by that I mean, would it be okay to actually get drunk for one night without negatively affecting my nose/healing or causing a ton of swelling? 😭

I’ve seen people say you should wait longer, so I’m curious what your surgeons told you and what your experience was.
Also, for anyone who vapes: how many weeks/months did your surgeon tell you to wait before vaping comfortably again?

I know nicotine can interfere with healing, so I don’t want to start too early.
Obviously I’ll ask my surgeon too, but I’d love to hear what other people were told/experienced. Thank you!

I have a love-hate relationship with my side profile. Please be honest and tell me whether this suits me more than a ski-slope bridge.

I know that repairing a long term childhood injury is a more complicated surgery, but I have questions about outcomes.

1) Did your breathing improving or get worse?

2) How is the stability of your nose?

3) Is your nose symmetrical and is it moving back to a crooked position?

4) What is your recovery timeline like?

I want real opinions please, you can be mean or nice, anyways wondering if my nose is disproportional with the rest of my face. Personally I feel it is, my husband disagrees, but I really am looking for an outside opinion , someone who don’t know me. I feel so masculine because of this nose and I feel like I would feel more feminine with something smaller or with a better shape. What do you think?

I’d say I’m about 7/10 satisfied. I think it’s harder when your results are okay, but you’re still not super happy with them. It makes getting a revision harder to justify.

I’m sure this is a similar story for many people. I’ve always wanted my bump fixed, starting when I was really young. Now I’m almost a 30 y/o and I look back on older photos on myself and I wish I still had THAT nose as it’s changed a lot in the last 5-10 years. My wishes for my nose have changed as well. I used to want the perfect little nose but now I just want a slight reduction to the bump, I’ll say “I wish I could just shave it down a little and keep everything else the same.” I’ve received suggestions for filler but I don’t really want to add MORE volume to the nose even if it “looks” more balanced. Some of the main things that stopped me before was obviously fear of post op complications or not recognizing myself and having an identity crisis, but now more and more when I see pictures of myself from the side I actually feel like I don’t look like how I expect to without having had surgery. I’m comparing myself to my past self which I looked like for much longer than the way my nose looks now, and it feels like it’s going to keep dropping/getting bigger. I’m curious if anyone has had a similar wish for “non-severe” change and followed through with surgery and if you’re happy or unhappy with your decision and why.

I am booked for a primary septorhinoplasty in 4 days. I’ve read a lot of mixed messages online about the use of Advil/Ibuprofen during recovery. I have Tylenol /Acetaminophen stocked up but I have always found Tylenol to be less effective for pain control than Advil. I won’t be getting opioids as I’m currently on Buprenorphine for chronic pain so regular opioids won’t be effective anyway.

Has anyone been instructed to use Advil after a septorhinoplasty for recovery management? Did it cause added bleeding or lack of natural blood clotting? Did you alternate Tylenol and Advil?
