A person on this website with the username iamjann is posting on her review that myself and Torontonian are the same person. We are not the same person. Sorry, but I dont go around making fake accounts on here.

You can see how my nose isnt strait and pulls to one side more and how round and fat at the tip it looks in these pics.

I see what you mean about your nose. You're still gorgeous but it sucks to spend all this money and time and not get what you want. Honestly, I have not heard that many good things about Solomon & the results aren't very impressive. I would definitely go see another doctor. I hear Dr. Rival is good as far as Toronto doctors go, but in terms of *the best*, you should check out Dr. Grigoryants in California or Dr. Rizk in New York.

Thanks Vanessa :)
Definitely looking into seeing other surgeons. Ive talked to a few people now who have gone to other surgeons after Solomon wrecked their noses and all these people love the new results they got with the new surgeon. I want that to be me!

hey girl! I'm from Toronto, and I'm flying to have a rhino with Dr. Grigoryants (hopefully by the end of the year) because i need to save up the money!! I didn't feel comfortable with any doctors in toronto.. I really think you should check Dr G's work and email him for an online consult. Good luck :)

That's exciting for you! It seems alot of people are traveling to have work done these days. I can't afford to pay for travel expenses on top of the cost of getting my nose done again but if I could I would. Ive checked out a few surgeons in Cali and if I lived there or could afford to travel there I would go see them for a consult.

Hey Kitty, Sorry for the very late reply. I never new you wrote back because realself.com does not notify a person when they have a new msg ...I have not decided I figure I've waited my entire life what's a little more.Also I keep hearing so many say they are unhappy so it makes me think perhaps I shouldn't do it .If you want u can msg me & we can talk privately ..

Wow, your nose really continued to change a lot after surgery. I'm sorry you're not happy with your results; I can't imagine the frustration. When you smile, does the tip of your nose get pulled down? If that's the case, then perhaps that muscle is what's causing the tip to droop. My surgeon pointed out that the tip of my nose depressed when I smiled, so he 'released' a muscle above my lip. Now my nose doesn't budge when I smile. If your surgeon has never addressed that with you, maybe bring it up in other consultations. Best of luck!

Hi Meg,
Yes, when I smile my tip pulls down. This seems to keep happening and its really annoying. Thats really good to hear that your tip doesnt drop because of what your surgeon did. I will have to mention that at the consults and see what they have to say and if it would help me or not.
Thanks so much for your post!

First of all thank you for sharing your experience! Secondly I agree with what everyone else says...you're really beautiful regardless. The changes in your nose are not detracting from your overall beauty. But I went through something very similar and was told the same thing so I understand how frustrating that can be to hear. I just had my 3rd revision in November so I understand what you're going thru. I made the same mistake as you by going back to my original surgeon for my first revision. Big mistake. My nose tended to do what yours is doing after surgery...it would look cute at first and then the tip would inevitably drop and widen and get more bulbous and shapeless with each revision. I was told by ever surgeon I consulted with this last time that I had thick skin as well and therefore I'd never get the definition in the tip I wanted. When I touched the tip of my nose it felt soft and mushy and I like it had no structure. Also when I smiled it pointed downward. In person I guess it wasn't as bad, but in pictures...ugh that's a different story. It really detracted from my overall appearance. I finally consulted with a surgeon who said he could give me the definition I wanted despite my thick skin and I ended up doing my 3rd revision with him. I am almost 4 montj post ip

Sorry hit "post comment" too soon by accident! Anyway I'm almost 4 months post op and so far my tip hasn't really dropped at all. It's hard and feels more defined now. I think it's actually bigger than before but I can live with that. He had to use ear cartilage in the tip to give me definition and told me that the reason the tip kept rotating downward and getting bulbous was possibly a combination of lots of scar tissue forming where my nose had been over resected, and also the cartilage graft weren't staying in place so I had very little support. Apparently thick skin can be a lot harder to work with and it's harder to get good definition but it is possible if the surgeon is truly skilled which seems hard to come by. Anyway again, thank you so much for sharing and posting all your pics! Good luck and if you have any questions about my procedure I'm happy to answer! All the best :)

Hi Prasiolite,
Thanks so much for reading my review and for saying those sweet things about me :)
Your story sounds alot like mine. My tip feels mushy and soft, drops when I smile, looks bulbous, my nose looks alot worse in pictures too. That really makes sense what you were told about why your tip was dropping....the graft isnt staying in place and the build up of scar tissue made so there was no support. Thats obviously whats happening with me. I have a consultation booked in April so Ill see what that surgeon says needs to be done. I hope he can help me. Your right though, its really hard to find a good skilled surgeon and to trust again. Im happy that you found someone who gave you the results you were looking for! Who was your surgeon and how much were you charged?
Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. :)
March 6, 2014
I just read your review. Your nose looks amazing! Your surgeon did a great job! It gives me hope in that I can get good results like that too since we pretty much had the same issues with our noses. I just need to find the right surgeon. :)
March 6, 2014
Thank you! It's not perfect but my major concerns were addressed which was all I wanted. Just praying it stays this way this time!!
March 6, 2014
I am happy to share my story with you, we have a lot in common. I wrote you another response somewhere else but I do this on my phone and it's all small so I don't know what's where! Anyway if you want I can send you some before/after of me throughout my primary/ revisions etc. Unfortunately I'm not quite as nicely put together as you are in terms of the rest of my face otherwise I'd post them on here...not quite that confident! Anyway my surgeon's name is Oleh Slupchynskyj. him. He charged me 12K. It was a lot to swallow, but believe it or not I was getting quotes of up to 20K from other surgeons. And they were also telling me I'd never get definition in my tip due to my thick skin and previous damage. So while he's not a bargain by any means, it was definitely in the ballpark. I know he does take insurance for at least part of it. I don't know how he sets his prices - if it's dependent on how much damage is there or if he has standard rates. I know I had a lot of damage. It's important for me to tell you I elected to have a small silastic implant put into my bridge but that's a really personal choice. Most surgeons don't do it but I trusted him and had a much better chance of getting the look I wanted that way. It's not in the tip - that's ear cartilage. But I just want you to know that! I can't really say much about his personality because he is very nose -focused and doesn't talk much aside from nose related subjects. He was pleasant, but my other surgeons were much more chatty and friendly. But what good does that do you when they don't do your nose right?! Anyway four months post op so and far so good. if my nose could be made better I think yours could DEFINITELY be made more beautiful too!!

Im going to PM you and give you my email address. I would def like to see more pictures and I really appreciate you sending them to me :) I have more things I wanna ask you too so Ill just send them in my PM :)
April 11, 2014
Hi Prasiolite, hoping you're ok! Last time we spoke privately through inbox, I sent you my email to see your pictures. I would really love to see your pics since I'm considering your PS to work on mine. Hoping to hear from you soon! Hope everything is good with you :(

I can see what you mean about the droop,mine does the same when I smile. It doesn't look too bad though.

Here is a close up of my nose when I smile that I just took yesterday. Look at how out of shape it is. It looks wide and bulbous and my nostrils flare out. My tip drops and looks fat. Does this look like a nice nose? I don't think so :(

Let me say this . You are absolutely gorgeous .
But the nose done by Solomon absolutely not good work . Find another doctor please a dr that is skilled knowledgeable and gives you honest clear answers and give you enough time and attention to explain the procedure . Drive through face procedure can lead to devastating consequences which is what happen to me with Solomon despite me asking questions it didn't matter as he had my trust which he betrayed in every possible way he could .

My nose looks just like this now. I don't know what surgical techniques cause this look, but I also hate my nose post op :-(
