Yes, he is American Board Facial Plastic and ENT certified so you really need to look for a lot more than that. After, I had the surgery and looked on BBB and other sites I found a few complaints and read about unhappy patients so make sure you do that before the surgery. When you sign the consent you release your surgeon from any kind of mistakes he could possibly make so ask about the policy on revision and if he had any patients before who were not happy and what he did for them. My surgeon doesn't have any policy on revisions and to me that just shows he is not too concerned about patient satisfaction more than the money. If your surgeon has a policy on revision that just shows they would do anything to make you happy. Best of luck! Please keep us posted. Sorry for the long post but I just don't want you to do what I did.
Hi NaturalMe,
I just had rhinoplasty and I am not happy with the results but the reason is clearly because I didn't choose my surgeon carefully. He did show me before and after pictures and I didn't like the after results for some and at that point I should have went somewhere else. Make sure your surgeon tells you exactly what he is going to do which my surgeon didn't do. Everytime I asked him for clarification he said you have to trust me. I have done thousands of these. You have to trust your surgeon but it's your face and you want your nose to be like what you want it to be rather than what your surgeon thinks it should be. At first, I didn't want to spend so much on consultation fees so I avoided going to too many surgeons but I am paying for that now by going to surgeons to see if it can be fixed. Please don't do it until you are confident your surgeon will do exactly what you want.
Angiemcc, I had a rhinoplasty on Dec 30th. I had a bulbulos wide tip and it is much worst now. How long did it take you to see results after you had the surgery?
