Lounging on a deckchair by the pool, soaking up the sun in a skimpy bikini, Rhiannon Langley is just like any other tourist on holiday in Thailand... except she's sporting two bruised eyes, swollen cheeks and a bandaged nose.

The 24-year-old from Melbourne is recovering from Rhinoplasty, but rather than recuperating at home, she is at a five-star hotel, part of the $5,190 'Bangkok Nose Job' medical tourism package she is on.

Rhiannon, a popular social media personality with almost 200,000 Instagram followers, told Daily Mail Australia that she has been enjoying her post-op holiday time, 'chilling out' by the pool, getting mani pedis, and going shopping.

Seeing results: The 24-year-old from Melbourne tells Daily Mail she 'already loves' her new nose

The hairdresser turned model raised eyebrows this week for her decision to go public with her 'nose job journey' in spectacular fashion, by sharing pictures and videos since her arrival in Thailand for the procedure on social media, which fans can follow along by using the hashtag #RhiannonGetsRhino.

Miss Langley has been updating her Instagram feed daily, and sharing her progress in a series of Snapchat videos.

'I'm feeling so much better now, just excited to see the outcome!' Langley said. 'I already love it.'

While many post-op patients retreat to their beds for weeks afterwards, Rhiannon has taken her recovering poolside.

'I've been chilling out by the pool,' she said. '[I] got a manicure and pedicure yesterday, today we are shopping, and just eating out.'

In videos uploaded to Snapchat, Rhiannon noted that she could already see a difference in the shape of her nose.

Sporting a bloodshot eye and bruising, she said doctors had removed some of the stitches. 'I can finally see that my nose is in line for once and I don't have this droop,' she said.

Langley spoke to Daily Mail Australia earlier this week just one day after her surgery, and revealed that the changes would be 'quite drastic'.

Rhiannon said that she chose to go public as she was sick of seeing other well-known women hiding their nips and tucks from followers.

'I have quite a big following on social media and I don't want to lie about it,' she said. 'I think people are more accepting of the decision if you own it.

'I've seen so many other girls on social media get things done and then try and hide it.

'I have been a bit scared about getting negative feedback,' Rhiannon added,referring to the announcement she made the week before departing.

'I've always wanted this since I was a lot younger, and I decided why not, if it makes me happy and improves my self esteem then I'm doing it!' she wrote at the time.

'Yes plastic surgery is a controversial thing to do but this is my life and it's something I've wanted to do for so long and especially before my wedding.'

'They've all been really positive and supportive though. Obviously you get a few weird comments, but it's been a lot better than I expected.'

Miss Langley wanted to share her experience with her followers, having found no one in her friendship circle to turn to for guidance on what the surgery and recovery would be like.

'None of my friends have had nose jobs, so I was searching on the Internet and couldn't find anything useful,' she said.

'So I decided to post about my experience, post photos, share how I feel, how I look, and what I've gone through.'

Rhiannon says her motivation to take her surgery overseas was financially motivated. 'The price difference [between Australia and Thailand] is huge,' she told DMA.

'I'm getting married in a year, so I couldn't afford to have the surgery in Australia.'

Her trip to Thailand is a $5,190 'Bangkok Nose Job' package with CosMediTour.

The Medical Tourism Agency has confirmed to Daily Mail Australia that while they have assisted the social media influencer with finding accommodation, Langley paid the full rate for her surgery package.

The packages include four to five star accommodation and meals, as well as the full cost of hospitalisation and surgery.
