Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

-make sure you can afford surgery
-pick a couple of dates that can be scheduled for surgery(u should take between 1 to 2 weeks off(if closed procedure)
Surgery date set:
- YOU WANT IMPROVEMENT NOT PERFECTION!
- Plan everything out. Make sure you have a driver. get ur bed and everything you need ready day before surgery.
you will def. need.... cough drops!!,CHAP STICK!, sore throat spray!!,crackers/bread and butter, jello and whip cream, banana bread, stool softner!!,extra pillows!,blankets, tissues, fluids, arnica tablets!, vitamin c or orange juice, ur pain meds, extra gauze, face cleaning wipes!!computer, tv, reading material, .....hmmm am i forgetting anything?!? You will be very tired and feel like you are sick until u get the gauze out. Not painful but very uncomfortable. by day 3-4 u will wanna rip that cast off ur nose..dont!
After Surgery:
-Be patient! swelling is gonna be ANNOYING and patience is key and don't expect to like it right away. swelling will make it look a little off! after two weeks u will start seeing results. and each day will get better and better. All worth it!

Dec. 10th- 2.5 weeks
Still numb at tip of nose and around nose. I have feeling in my upper lip now! and i can almost smile regular. sometimes i have forgotten that i even had the surgery done. Throughout my surgery i really havn't bumped it or knocked it too bad.
I didnt tell many people but Some people havn't mentioned anything about the surgery and others have said that can see a difference while others say they can't and that i didnt need the surgery in the first place..... but did I did it for me, so i can breathe better and while there at make it alittle bit smaller. I'm happy with it:)))
I think my profile is MUCH better. worth it and happy with reSults!

2 Weeks post op
Swelling is down ALOT. Anybody getting it done be prepared to get nasty whiffs(b/c of dried blood/mucus). u have no idea how many times i checked the bottom of my shoes bc i smelt something gross and no one else could smell it except for me and realized it was the inside of my nose, but once cleared the smell is gone.I still have scabs and dissolvable stitches in the inside of my nose.
I went to my post op appt. and everything looks good. I was a little worried at first b/c it looked like between my eyes was crooked but it was just uneven smelling.looks good now! As of right now i am VERY HAPPY I got the surgery done. I can breathe a lot better i still sleep elevated. i can already tell a dramatic change in my nose since a week ago.
Will post pics later on...........

Provider Review
Dr. Julian Henley( New Haven-CT)
Very happy that I picked this surgeon to do my procedure. Nothing could have been better! Wait time is average...sometimes i only had to wait a couple mins other times i had to wait about 10. (I always showed up early tho). The only thing that was a pain was getting the letter and approval from insurance company(took a week),but i'm not very patient so that's my problem.:)) Great doctor that knows what he is doing.
