Thinking of Having a Nose Job

I had an accident while working out and my nose was badly injured. There was a slight deformity quite obvious if you know me well so I’m thinking of undergoing a plastic surgery procedure to correct it. Looking at the before and after pictures of some Hollywood celebrities I’m quite convinced to go on with my plan but before that of course I’m conducting a little study about it. What are the things that I should know before rhinoplasty? And is it really worth it? Thanks in advance!
 
If you really want it, go for it! I hated my nose, huge and also broken multiple times, and I don't regret rhinoplasty one bit. It gave me the confidence in my looks that I always knew I could have. It's a quick and pretty painless process too, no worse than a more invasive dental procedure. My only advice is to find the best surgeon you can and don't skimp at all on money, and NEVER go for a cheap surgeon, EVER. I went for a middle-of-the-pack one, and he didn't mess up but he was too conservative so now I'd like a revision, which won't be cheap. Had I spent another two grand, I'd probable save the 5+ extra I'll have to pay for a revision. That said, no one can tell I've had surgery and I've been told I have a cute nose now so all's well. I'm normally against getting plastic surgery myself but I'm all for nose jobs after getting mine, it's not nearly as serious a surgical procedure as some and the resulting confidence is completely worth it. If I hadn't done it young, I would've regretted not getting it sooner. Financially, it was far more worth it to me than a week at a resort or expensive jewelry. Can't put a price on confidence.
 
I haven't had rhinoplasty but I've had kybella and get chem peels, laser, and Botox. I think if there is something that you are dissatisfied with and have done copious research about the produced and have considered the risks vs benefits then go for it. Even though I'm small (5'2 110lbs) I've always had an excessive amount of chin fat. I am so glad I had it done. That was the one thing that bothered me since I was a child and it's so liberating to not have to wear scarves or turtlenecks all the time. If you notice your nose every time you look in the mirror, it sounds like the procedure would be a worthwhile investment. I recommend going to realself.com - it's a plastic surgery site with before and after pics, procedure information and blogs, and q and a areas for specific procedures. That site has been invaluable for me in making cosmetic decisions.
