Did Ruby have a nose job? Yes, and she explained why she waited for it

As reported by WOWbiz.ro, Ruby said: “Rhinoplasty was my first cosmetic procedure, and it was the procedure I had been waiting for with my heart in my throat. I had it done at 18.” She explained that she had felt self-conscious about her nose since childhood, describing it as larger and crooked, and that her father had promised she could have it corrected once she became an adult — a promise he kept.

What stands out in Ruby's account is the waiting itself: a childhood insecurity, a parent's promise, and a procedure carried out as soon as she was legally an adult rather than earlier. She described it as her only cosmetic surgery to date, a single, considered decision rather than one step in a series of changes.

Two main approaches are used:

• Open rhinoplasty — a small incision on the columella (the skin between the nostrils) gives the surgeon full view of the structures, useful for more complex changes.
• Closed rhinoplasty — all incisions are inside the nose, with no visible scar.

Rhinoplasty is usually considered for a hump, a wide or drooping tip, a crooked nose, asymmetry, or breathing problems linked to the septum.

The first 24 hours are spent in the inpatient unit. For the first 1–3 days patients breathe through the mouth, with nasal splints and some swelling and bruising. Splints usually come out around day 7, the external splint stays up to 14 days, and stitches are removed on day 14. Exercise, sauna, swimming and sun exposure are avoided for about a month.
