I've had my 1st rhino a year ago in Beirut Lebanon. It was great but I ended up with lots of scar tissue and a deviated septum. It is not the doctors fault but it's my body it healed like that. So I went to an ent to see why I can't breath it was the septum so we put a steroid injection to decrease the scar tissue and it did but the breathing was the same. So we scheduled a septoplasty with a revision rhinoplasty to fix it . I went to Dr warren brandes in Sterling Heights . He is very calm super experienced and he knows what he's doing. My surgery took 1 hour and I had no bruises at all (comparing to my first rhino) he even opened one of my nostril that was smaller and made them look even. I only to Vicodin the first night it wasn't that bad. People are saying that he's not a good surgeon but after my experience he's an excellent surgeon I cried when the cast was removed he's amazing. I got my stitches removed 2 weeks after so yesterday and it was a bit painful . Am so happy my breathing is amazing and it looks so feminine now.

Hi :) I followed your other post from your first surgery, I was actually planning on going to him but I noticed that he made yours and another girls nostrils different sizes smh! Did he make your nostrils smaller? And would you still recommend him, or someone else in the beirut area? I have to get a septoplasty too, but I don't speak arabic so that's why I chose him but now I'm reconsidering. You look gorgeous now by the way :)

hey dear! I had my rhino plasty 3 years ago and I'm experiencing the same problems as u had after ur first surgery. One nosetril looks bigger than the other, scar tissue and breathing problems! I'm so helpless since in my country there are no good plastic surgeons who can fix all these problems :(
