Hey guys so sorry to trouble all of you again but I was just wondering if it's possible to "flatten" your tip (I KEEP bumping my nose &i think i kinda flattened it already. It's rounder and not as pointy as I remember it being initially. You get what I mean anot? I'm really worried. I don't want a flat fat tip!

lol did u just copy my exact same identical paragraph? ohh i guess he showed u it too then?tommseva7 wrote:boii18 wrote:Hey plasticgirl, I totally agree with your comments.
I'm afraid of going to this doctor again, because he may botch up my surgery again to "display his unhappiness" over myself, or who knows as some form of revenge?
But Its financially much more wise though. I would probably go to him just for epi.
Reason why I don't want him to do my eyelid and fat grafting etc, is because of inherent risks and complications. I want to be a surgeon in the future.
If he is careless and hits an ocular blood vessel, then fails to address the issue, it can lead to blindness. Having witnessed live surgery for the first time past few days, I now understand the risks of surgery and intra-operative complications such as vessels bursting ( which, trust me, is not a good sight, though usually quickly resolved unless pt has ESRF or related problems ).
Even the slightest visual defect can affect your chances of being a surgeon
I think since you are a medical student, you should have a bright future ahead. I wouldn't risk it eyelid surgery ( with inherent risks of blindness ) especially if you are doing it with same doctor.
Myself, I am just reversing epi which should carry almost nil risk, except damage to tear duct?

Im glad your getting revision with Dr Hsu to get your nose fix from another doctor, actually Dr Hsu is really good with noses too pinched, he showed me a few photos when i was doing consultation with him, so he definately has experience with that!
Anyways i have some questions.
Im not talking about double eyelid surgery BUT what is the difference between removing fat and cutting out and removing excess skin? well i mean i know the difference but who here actually can explain to me and compare what both may look like?
This is what i think and PLEASE someone correct me because i never got my eyes done so you may done more research then me.. this is only my guess.
Im guessing removing fat creates a less droppy in thickness but u may experience hollowness from removing fat whereas cutting the skin is from saggyness of the skin and your end result will look more flat/tightness instead of having excess skin that may make your doubleeyelids look smaller then they actually are.,
Please correct me if im wrong or right on my guess.

Boil: reverse epi
Hi Boil,
Just wondering if Dr. Chuang told you he could reverse a bit of the epi?
I am thinking it's not as simple as just covering the tear ducts. The inner whites are showing more and that's what the epi pretty scary too.

Non-surgical Rhino
Hi All,
I'm soo soo outdated and when it comes to all this ps thing i could say that I know nothing! I've been following this thread, and some of the post may scare me off from going for ps but in another way it also encourages me to be brave!
I wonder if any of you has gone for non-surgical rhino before? I did some research online and it looks like different dr uses different chemical for their patients. There are radiesse, restylane and etc. Dr su is using restylane for her patient, and i wonder if anyone knows the pros and cons about these fillers? how long they could last and etc?? Please please to those who had this experience before share this with me?

Anyways when i put on makeup.. i dont look prettier with my new nose. And the reason i got rhino in the first place is to look prettier, comparing my old pix to my new pix, (and even showing strangers) they said i was better before. And thats quite hurtful considering in the past i got hit on a lot. Ppl might say "if you were already pretty in the past why u get your nose done?" cuz i wanted to be Song Hye kyo pretty.. meaning i dont wanna depend on makeup to be pretty anymore, as i get older im sick and tired of wearing makeup. And i thought if i just fix my nose it will be ok...
I asked one person.. they said revision does make u look better (most of the time) but theskin gets pulled more taught. Anyone here done revision before? Please tell me if your nose improved.
