My patient came to see me with a big smile just under 3 months after her open rhinoplasty surgery. Like many of my patients, she had travelled far (from Yorkshire) for the operation but felt the journey worthwhile to try and achieve her goals. She was really happy when I saw her last week and loved her new, natural appearance to the nose. She seemed brimming with confidence.

Her healing is going so well that I decided not to inject her with steroids, despite her Asian thicker skin type. There will be natural contraction of the tip soft tissues with time but she was happy to have nature take its course and actually loved things as they are already. So the further definition to the nose will come as a bonus to her.
