The best rhinoplasty surgeons in the USA.

Each of us that do a large number of noses and especially revision rhinoplasty feels that after 35 years we are the best. Unfortunately, patients like different noses and results and are the final judges. Fine one that has the same ideas about noses as you do as well as the results and go with him.

The top 5 rhinoplasty surgeons in the country are:

Impossible to determine. Some surgeons may choose only the "easy" cases and get reliably good results. Good for them. Others are challenged by re-dos and really difficult cases, and manage to turn out some pretty fantastic work. But who is going to "grade" us? Each of us is (hopefully) pretty busy in our own practices, and we may be lucky enough to be exposed to some of our colleagues' work from time to time.

Top 5 NOSE surgeons in the country

A large majority of the lay public is under the misconception that medical and surgical supremacy truly exists. But - while all sports events involve score keeping and tabulation, I am not aware of any American or International competition in which surgeons comete for supremacy and the title of "The Best", Champion or "Numero Uno honcho (on hunchette, as the case may be) by performing the same procedure in a large stadium while their technique and eventually their results are... more

It would be helpful if you provided extra bit of information such as:  Is this a revisionary rhinoplasty or a "virgin" rhinoplasty.  Also, before photo would be helpful.  There are some great plastic surgeons who specialize in nothing but revsionary surgery.  It would help to narrow down the search Thanks
