    Is high-dose HGH a bad idea after rhinoplasty?

    Sup guys,

    I've been on 13 IU daily pharmacy HGH for over half a year now. In my initial period of growth, I gained two inches of height, approximately 30 pounds of lean mass, and also growth of facial features. A lot of this growth was just normal transition from a more childish face to an adult-looking face, for example the growth of a brow ridge, more prominent temples, a more square chin, etc. However, the skin of my face did thicken quite a bit and my nasal septum thickened too much as well. I ended up with overly prominent nostrils and an overly wide nose. The projection of my nose did not change from the side however. The size of my hump stayed the same. A few days ago I had a complex rhinoplasty. This included alar base reduction (cutting of skin from the sides of the nostrils), narrowing the dorsum, shaving down the hump, and fixing the deviated septum. After this complex procedure, and after my initial transformation with HGH, is it safe to say that if I stay on this doseage, I will not regrow the oversized features I had surgery to get rid of?
    I know this is an unusual question and most likely nobody will know a good answer, but I'd like to hear whatever speculation you can offer up.
    Thanks bros.

    Why are you taking such a high dose?

    This is an excerpt from the prescribing information:
    "Recent literature has recommended initial treatment with larger doses of somatropin (e.g., 0.067 mg/kg/day), especially in very short children (i.e., HSDS < -3), and/or older/pubertal children, and that a reduction in dosage (e.g., gradually towards 0.033 mg/ kg/day) should be considered if substantial catch-up growth is observed during the first few years of therapy."

    HGH makes stuff grow. You are unique. Heck, all of us are unique in the way we react to such powerful chemicals. Only time well tell.
