Nose Job Patient Diary: Jessie
For the next few weeks we will be following the story of Jessie, our patient that went through the process of considering and ultimately deciding to have a rhinoplasty or “nose job.” She has graciously agreed to record her thoughts about her experience. Follow her story and watch her surgery videos as this series unfolds. Meet Jessie:
Hi, my name is Jessie and I have chosen to contribute to Dr. Bashioum’s Blog about my rhinoplasty surgery, because I want others to understand how the process works from a real person, not from a reality television show. I have researched the procedure online and I have been finding a lot of conflicting information, which has left me confused and a little nervous about undergoing the procedure. My hope in doing this blog is to allow potential patients to have a real patient perspective about the procedure, the recovery, and the end result and hopefully the great changes this brings to my life.
I have found that by revealing my up and coming surgery to others, it has caused various reactions. People tell me I am going to look like I got into fight, or say the surgeon is going to take a hammer to my nose and beat on me. Yikes! Others say this surgery is going to change my looks and no one is going to recognize me. Some people tell me to go ahead with the surgery, while others say it is a waste of money and vain of me to go through with the procedure. Thank goodness that in the end, I am only doing this surgery for me.
Please check back to follow my story.
