Hi guys,

I’ve been reaching out to Turkish doctors for rhinoplasty quotes for the past week or so. These are the quotes I’ve gotten so far to give you a good idea of what their costs look like in 2026. This does not include the plane ticket cost.

I’m 3 months post op after my fourth rhinoplasty revision and it still feels so swollen. i’m taping most nights and on low dose accutane (they made me) to get my skin to shrink faster around the new nose. but it still feels really swollen. i drink lots of water and sleep slightly elevated. any other suggestions i can try??

I am aware it takes 1-1.5 years to see results.

Alas, what I requested is not what I got. I am (not) patiently waiting for the tip to hopefully drop. It is very upturned with a lot of visible nostril, and looks snubbish. I look like a combo of a pug and a pig.

As the caption says, I'm 16 days post op now and I feel like my nose is much wider and flatter. Is this swelling? I feel like most people have such defined noses already after two weeks. Without tape it's even worse! I can't look at my face without tape, it's so bad. I feel like it was very thin/fine before and I read that it can appear wider after removing the hump.. Did your noses appear/become wider after surgery?

I wanted subtle changes and right now it feels like everyone can tell from miles away..

This photo was around December 2025 so about 5m ago! Left photo is original photo & right photo is edited picture of how I hope my nose heals!! I still feel like the tip is a bit bulbous but my tip reduction was from 7-9mm to 4-6mm so about 3mm reduction which means I have heavy skin still at the tip. Tip feels quite firm. Do you think it’s likely that my nose tip skin will shrink to give me a more refined nose or do you think it’s possible I will need another revision? I didn’t ask for my tip to be lifted and now I’m second guessing that.
Has anyone else had a deprojection/reduction this big & how long until you saw your tip refine? Otherwise I’m very happy w my results!! Idk if it’s due to the over deprojection or just my skin elasticity taking its time. Currently I’m almost 1 yr post op May 25 2026!!

Im just a little confused about this because I thought scabs were normal and would fall off on their own but my surgeon keeps telling me to use a q tip and try to rub it off my nose but when I do that it makes the scab bleed and then it comes back the next day. I do still disinfect my nose daily but I don’t see the point in me constantly trying to mess with the scab, I feel like me trying to rub it off is making my healing time longer but what do yall think?

I had a couple people tell me that they didn’t think it was worth it & my old nose was “fine” but I feel like it took over my whole face & was the main focus. My new nose feels so far very proportional with the rest of my features 😊

hi guys- i have been researching rhinoplasty and surgeons and different methods etc., for 6 years now and i have talked to different surgeons and done consultations. i really would like the opinion of you guys in this sub reddit on if its worth it/my nose is the problem and keeping me from being way more attractive? i think the length and asymmetry and size are the main issues.

i spend every single day thinking about getting a rhinoplasty and my nose in general. hoping for some honest feedback, plsss be brutally honest! thank you so much!!!!

The photos speak for themselves. Immediately after my surgery and then 2.5 years later…

Before my revision surgery with Dr. Shuaib, I had aesthetic concerns but no breathing problems. I was told I would likely breathe even better after surgery, which I didn’t know how was possible since I did not have any issues with breathing, but unfortunately my experience has been the opposite.

I asked for a very natural result and trusted that, as an ENT, preserving and improving function would be a priority. Since surgery, I’ve experienced severe nasal obstruction, nasal valve collapse, and daily discomfort that have significantly affected my quality of life.

I’ve also struggled to get consistent guidance regarding next steps, and now I’m having difficulty finding a tertiary revision specialist I feel comfortable trusting with such a complex case.

It’s been incredibly difficult and heartbreaking to feel unsupported after placing so much trust in a doctor and the process.

I’m sharing this because revision rhinoplasty patients often have a hard time finding honest information and support. If anyone has recommendations for highly experienced tertiary revision surgeons — especially for functional breathing issues — please feel free to message me.

Idk my nose is pretty big and i cant breathe properly only from one side plus its deviated to one side, so im wondering if i should get a rhino or a septoplastie

I’ve been insecure about my nose for awhile now. I’m currently 35 & wish I wasn’t so insecure. I keep vasilating whether or not to get it fixed concerned about price & it not turning out right. Also, if I were to have a daughter I’d be ashamed to say I got a nose job especially if she has the same nose.

Not sure what my options are but definitely don’t want this white circle on my nose forever 😭

I want to be realistic with my doctor. I dont even think a barbie nose would be realistic or suitable. What should I ask for going in? Anything I should ask during my consultation? I am doing this alone with no guidance. Any tips? I am grateful for any advice.

Guys I'm honestly so devastated 20 days post op :( I can't stop crying, I keep having breakdowns. I regret it so much!

Left pic (grey shirt) is one day after cast removal (day 15) and now 5 days later I feel like my nose doesn't stop going up!! That's the exact opposite of what I want. Everyone told me it will go down :( Also I felt like the columella was nice and round and this is also gone. The nose I have right now feels like waaaay to small for my face. I honestly don't know what to do or how to feel happy or go out ever again :(
