Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)

Hiding Rhinoplasty From Family: Should I Confess?

Three weeks ago, I had a rhinoplasty. I had been contemplating it for a long time, overall my appearance is attractive, I'm married, have children, my husband loves me. But my nose was always a bit long in profile, the older I got, the more it irritated me. It also added extra age. My husband, of course, was in shock, but I found a good surgeon and convinced him that I would only slightly correct the length of my nose. I won't change the full face view. I took leave from work, sent my mum to the seaside with the youngest child and had the operation. The result is not quite clear to me yet, as there is swelling and indentations, but overall, I haven't changed much in full face view, they also tried to keep the profile as much as possible, but now there's a big swelling on the bridge, the nostrils are different due to the swelling, I have to wait for the final result. Mum, when she saw me for the first time, 17 days after the operation, asked what's with the face, I said that I had injections, so it swelled and is bruised. Then she started looking at me more closely and said that I'm a different person in profile, where did such a bump on the bridge come from. I blamed it all on the injections and said it would go away. We're also experiencing incredible heat, so the swelling is severe. My eldest son, by the way, hasn't noticed anything, he's 19 years old. At least he's silent. I also don't plan to tell anyone at work, just changed my hairstyle, lost 5 kg due to stress and the post-operative period, the bruises have almost gone, I'll cover it up with foundation. I don't understand whether I should continue to deceive my mum or tell her. I know she'll worry a lot about the fact that I've had an operation and in general, changes are hard for people of the older generation to accept.

It seems, author, as if you absolutely need to get something off your chest, with no one to talk to, and mum has nothing to do with it. I would tell the truth to my mum, a loved one - she would sympathise, comfort, and it would lighten the heart.

So what's causing you such discomfort? Is it because you're lying to your mother? Or because you don't want your whole family discussing you afterwards. I keep quiet one more time, then the whole family discusses.

Of course, Mum won't be discussing this with anyone. I don't want to shock her with my surgery. We've never talked about it with Sanya. She's unaware that I'm unhappy with my nose and that I'm planning a surgery. The result is still ambiguous. I can't understand myself, sometimes I really like it, sometimes I doubt why I did it. I'm still in an unstable psychological state.

OP, I think your mum might not be too pleased to hear that you're not satisfied with your appearance. If possible, it might not be necessary to tell her about this. The main thing is that you're happy with everything. 😊 I really hope you'll like the result.
