I haven’t experienced headaches or nausea at all,
and I don’t think I’ve actually rated sedation enough
in these videos because being sedated was honestly
the biggest fear for me, I literally was so scared,
but I really couldn’t wait in office, it was the best
experience and the anesthetist was incredible,
I honestly have no faults at all if you’re worried, take my word
for it and don’t be because it’s, it’s amazing and I would
choose over being put to sleep with no anesthetic
anytime because it was just amazing, um, but you know
what I can’t wait for to my blow my nose, to clean my nose,
to see my nose and to have my nose out of this little cage
because it’s just so sad not being able
to see it for a whole week, it’s just like
it's there but you can’t see it.
It is Day 6 of my recovery, and my cast
comes out tomorrow I’m really excited
um, because I feel like I’m trapped in a little cage.
But yeah, again today I haven’t had any pain.
I’ve um, taken my drip pad off, I’ve run out of the actual
bandage stuff anyway but my nose only bled slightly
for the first few days but since then it’s kind of like having
a cold maybe I’m just gross or they prescribed
like ointments stuff I have to use, I don’t know but my nose
is running like crazy and it’s driving me nuts.
So, I warn you keep tissue with you at all times.
No, it’s, it’s not really that bad but yeah,
keep a box of tissues near you just in case
‘cause it is gross when like your nose is running
everywhere, it’s just, it’s just like having a cold.
just to put it that way, what else has happened?
Yawning, oh my God, yawning will literally
be the death of me, how was it so uncontrollable?
is so annoying, um, you know, when you yawn and like
your nose creases up like it just does a whole creasing thing
My nose tries to do that and it is just not okay.
It hurts my tender little bones but um, so, yeah,
I just sleep the whole time, so you don’t yawn is my best
advice for you, no, it’s, it’s not that bad, honestly,
I’m just being dramatic, the pain I’ve experienced,
even yawning and sneezing is barely even painful enough
to call pain, I’ve been lucky and obviously had a really
gentle surgeon, because I’ve not really had pain at all.
I just, I just hate the like, the yawning and sneezing
hasn’t affected my final result, if you do sneeze,
open your mouth as wide as you can, if you’re having
any chin implant like me and rhinoplasty is difficult
for the first like 2 or 3 days because um, you’re so stiff
like even now I can’t feel my chin like it’s so numb
but yeah, open your mouth basically as wide as you can
and it does prevent any pain from your nose at all.
Um, I’m sure that that’s written on the print outs
that you get anyway, um, but do read them and do listen
to what your surgeon says, because clearly it makes
a huge a difference to like bruising and swelling
and pain because I haven’t experienced barely any pain
at all actually it’s, it’s pretty good,
I had a rhinoplasty and chin implant done
about 7 weeks ago, um, the overall experience was
amazing I can’t feel it at all, I basically had no pain.
I didn’t even use painkillers which I thought was crazy,
but I love it, I’m obsessed with it, I can’t stop looking
at my side profile ‘cause that’s what I wanted to change
the nose and it looks so natural barely anyone even noticed
that I had it unless I told them before and those people
have said how natural and amazing it looks.
I just feel a lot better after having it done
and I’m very happy I came to Dr. De Silva.
