Re: Nose jobs! (Rhinoplasty) - Michael Jackson
Sarah,
I had my nose done by one of the supposed best surgeons in NYC. The only reason I cautioned you is because you have right to know that there are bad results out there along with good results, no matter who you go to.
I do not know what you look like, and maybe you are a good candidate for the surgery.
As for me, I went in to improve my photographic appearance. I had, among other things, modeled in NY in my 20's. My nose was basically good.
However, as I reached my middle 30's, my bridge thinned out making my tip and nostrils look bulbous and flared in photos. My surgery was to correct this minor defect. Instead, I came out with a "Barbara Streisand" nose with a truly bulbous tip and flaring nostrils. I have been ruined and none of the other deities of US plastic surgery are willing to attempt to fix this disaster for fear of worsening my situation.
However, if your only problem is a thick bridge or a hooked bridge and not a tip or alae problem, it seems most any competent rhino doctor can adequately correct this problem to most people's satisfactions.
So, I agree, it depends on what your nose looks like now - just be aware that the consequences, good or bad, are assumed by you for the remainder of your life!
There is no way back!
Look at Michael Jackson!
