“i want to start off my saying that i am so grateful to have had the privilege to do this surgery and work with the incredible @doctor.truesdale!” Ava wrote on Instagram. “ever since i was little i’ve had an issue with breathing and my stamina, especially growing up as a dancer. it was thought to be sports induced asma, but ended up being a deviated septum causing about 70% decreased airflow on my left side. i’ve found that it’s effected my life more than i thought, and i am so happy to be able to BREATHE!!!”

Ava continued, “on a personal note, my nose has been something i’ve been insecure about for such a long time and i really struggled with the thought of changing it. i felt ashamed that i wanted to change a part of myself as i am always talking about the importance of self-love. i’ve learned that i can still love every part of myself, while making this change for myself. my biggest requirement was that i don’t want the ‘perfect nose,’ i still want to look like me :).”

“i cannot even tell you how amazing @doctor.truesdale has been during this entire process. from having anxiety about surgery, to calling him on a sunday because i was freaking out, to the INCREDIBLE results i could only dream of. i am so beyond grateful for this whole experience. thank you to everyone at @doctor.truesdale office for making me feel safe and beautiful in every form!” Ava concluded. “So much love ❤️.”
