Nelly, I got one of those

----a new nose---for my 40th birthday!!! (Call it a midlife crisis).

It was one of the smartest and stupidest things I've ever done. I had a horrible long nose (much too big for my face) and was so self conscious about it. In that respect, I feel so much more confident now. (No more stares from strangers!) My sister had hers redone too, which tells you how bad our genes are when it comes to noses.

But it was the most PAINFUL thing I've ever experienced. I had a hard time sleeping for weeks afterwards because I hurt so bad (and I was afraid my husband would elbow me in the face). My new nose (I wouldn't call it perky. It just fits my long face perfectly now) was numb for months. It was weird to touch my face and not be able to feel it. It felt like I had a concrete nose! And for the first few weeks, I had a droopy smile ----which scared the heck out of me! I thought the surgery had permamently messed up my facial muscles, but this was only temporary.

I would never recommend that anyone have this surgery unless their nose is very extreme (which mine was). It's not a minor surgery or for the squeamish. I had a black and blue face for weeks, my nose bled, and I was in extreme pain.

I still can't believe I did it. Undergoing plastic surgery was so unlike me. I'm glad it's behind me. And shhh!!! We've moved since, and no one here knows I've had it redone.
