I was asked to give a testimonial, what an awesome opportunity to share my experience with Dr. Raval and Faces First. The office team was superb, Dr. Raval is personal and professional and Aly has great Southern charm. The surgery itself went smoothly. It was an in and out procedure. I would have to say that the worst part was the first month after surgery. You really cannot prepare yourself for the image you will see. You are swollen and seem to be disfigured. My best advice is to go in knowing that there are no "immediate" wonderful changes.

For most people, the changes are very subtle and they do not even notice. For the "nose" people, they see a difference and love it. After three months of healing time, I feel great and am very satisfied with the results.

I have a couple of incidents that I would like to share: I was at a gas station pumping gas, when out of the blue, and gentleman came up to me to tell me how beautiful he thought I was. I would have to credit the surgery for this, since that has never happened to me before.

I also visited an old neighbor who immediately noticed the results. She couldn't get over the changes. She said that she was "nose" person and had always thought about doing it. After seeing me, she is now considering moving forward.

I appreciate the opportunity to share my story, and would encourage anyone to take action and make positive chances in life. You really " Create You Own Reality!"

Sincerely,
