It Was Less Complicated and Less Painful Than Anticipated - Boston, MA

One nostril was totally collapsed. I had difficulty breathing without my nose open. I was never happy with my pug nose before the surgery, but the nostril issue which was fairly new, bothered me a lot. I hoped for a less rounded tip, 2 matching and working nostrils and overall cuteness!

The surgery was less invasive and easier healing than I thought it would be.This is particularly impressive as I have a clotting disorder. I am happy overall with the results. I am still "me" but less nosey. I wish I knew that the main discomfort was mostly stuffiness like a bad cold without the feeling sick. You feel tired, but not ill. Take some naps, watch your sodium and try to have patience.

Great review?

Everyone in her office is professional and sensitive to patient's needs. I loved working with Dr. DeRosa. She is responsive and compassionate. She did great work. I couldn't be happier. My only regret is waiting!
