Gregory S. Dibelius, MD

I resisted getting surgery to restore my breathing for years. Procrastination only prolongs your misery and never solves any problems, only taking action does. Constant snoring, mouth breathing and the eventual collapse of my nasal valves upon respiration was beginning to be too much of a burden as I aged. All this in combination with a shrinking nose was about all the motivation I needed to finally take some action. After my 60th birthday, I decided it was time to do something about it because I'm not getting any younger. The clock is simply ticking away, and I want to live healthier for my remaining years on this earth. Rhinoplasty is Dr Dibelius's sole specialty, and it shows in large part in the results of his patients. I developed a keen eye for nasal aesthetics over many years and I could quickly dismiss a surgeon after just viewing a sampling of their work and I was able dismiss countless surgeons just by viewing their websites; needing to see only 10 or so of their patient's results. I always knew when someone had surgery on their nose because there were telltale signs left behind by less qualified surgeons and even when no one else could tell, I always could. My result today by Dr Dibelius is beyond my expectations and who could ask for more than that? The result is essentially the same nose I was born with but more refined looking and in complete harmony with my face. I breathe like a champion racehorse which motivated me to take up running again. Dr Dibelius understands the difference between a surgical appearance and a natural appearance. Notwithstanding my original God given nose, I never looked more natural or better than I do now and the result in function and aesthetics is excellent (to say the least). A special thanks to Amy and Sophia for all their genuine caring work, follow-ups and administrative work behind the scenes. These two women were like family to me and treated me in loving way during my whole journey. In conclusion, I'd advise you to do your own due diligence so don't take my word for this but just do research, investigate and consult with at least 3 surgeons; but do yourself a favor and consult with this highly trained surgeon as at least one of your options. I suspect it will be one of your best decisions you ever made if you want to minimize your risk and obtain a beautiful result you can live with for the rest of your life. IMHO, it is an understatement to say Dr Dibelius is a rhinoplasty genius and I am blessed and grateful to have been his patient.

This has been an amazing experience for me. Dr. Dibelius is a skilled and talented surgeon who is also kind and thoughtful. He listened to my concerns and took his time answering every one of my many questions. Amy, his patient coordinator, has also been incredibly helpful throughout this process, answering questions and returning phone calls in a timely fashion. I also want to mention Sophia, who was also extremely helpful. As I write this, I am just about 5 months post revision rhinoplasty and I am thrilled with my results. I cannot believe how great my nose looks. Finally, after so many years and two previous and unsuccessful revisions, I finally have a nose that fits my face and looks perfectly natural. Before I met Dr. Dibelious I felt hopeless and I had pretty much given up on the idea that I would ever find someone who could fix the issues created by two previous botched surgeries. For years, the tip of my nose was long and deformed and one of my nostrils was collapsed, making it very difficult to breathe properly. After 20 years since my last revision, I was fortunate to come across Dr. Dibelious. His knowledge and expertise helped fix the shape of my nose, making the tip and the nostrils look exactly as he described during my pre-op visits and consultations. I can honestly say that Dr. Dibelious has changed my life forever. I will always be thankful to Dr. Dibelious and his team for giving me the nose I always dreamed of.

Dr. Dibelius and his staff are the best! I had an amazing experience from start to finish. Sofia was able to book me for a consultation very quickly and I got in to see Dr. D and Amy, his patient coordinator, who both met with me for over two hours to go over the procedure (a septoplasty to correct my deviated septum with some minor aesthetic modifications to my nose as well), take pictures of my nose, upload them, and get my input on aesthetic changes I wanted to make to my nose. From there, Amy and Sofia helped with insurance and financing, booked the surgery, and stayed in close contact with me through the surgery date and post-op. I had a moment of panic a couple of days before the surgery because I have get anxious when I’m not able to breathe through my nose and worried that the congestion after surgery would be unbearable for me. When I expressed my concerns, Amy called me that same day to reassure me, and made me feel much more comfortable. The day of the surgery, I met with Dr. D in pre-op and he also let me know he’d do what he could to minimize the congestion by placing the thinnest splints possible in my nose. Immediately post-op, I could feel a huge difference in my ability to breathe. The recovery overall was very easy. I had no bruising and little swelling, and minor congestion. Dr. Dibelius clearly uses a very light touch. He took my cast off after a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the aesthetic results either even though my nose is still swollen—my nose looks incredibly natural—just like my nose but better. And Dr. D has assured me that the results will continue improving over time. The entire office has stayed in close contact since my surgery and I’m thrilled to have chosen Dr. Dibelius.

Words cannot express my gratitude to Dr. Gregory Dibelius. He demonstrated exceptional technical skill, surgical expertise and natural artistry all of which made my outcome amazing! He is an expert in his field and I feel so lucky to have found him! My case was quite complex; in fact I was turned away by my local plastic surgeon because this would be a complicated revision septoplasty after 2 failed surgeries from an accident I had years ago. I had a deviated septum on the right, a collapsed left side, breathing issues and a crooked nose. Dr. Dibelius didn’t blink an eye at my case, and assured me that he could make me whole again. He performed my septoplasty using a rib graft, repaired my deviated septum, nasal valve, and improved my breathing and airflow. He also straightened my nose and made it aesthetically beautiful. Dr. Dibelius gave me confidence throughout the entire process. I felt heard and understood, as all my questions were answered with patience and clarity. My post-operative care continues to be excellent, as he still checks in on my progress, showing genuine concern. I must acknowledge his coordinator Amy, as she goes above and beyond to support me. She anticipated challenges before they even arose! Together, she and Dr. Dibelius made a stressful time very smooth and manageable. I couldn’t be happier with my result and I’d recommend him in a heartbeat!

My secondary rhinoplasty was life-changing. Dr. Dibelius completely reconstructed my nose that had complications after my first rhinoplasty. I could not have asked for a better result. I had taken a few appointments at other doctors before finding Dr. Dibelius, and I'm so so glad I went with him.

I could not be happier that Dr. Dibelius was my surgeon. He's skilled, attentive, and a pleasure to work with overall. Post-operatively, my nose looked not only how I wanted it to, but better than I expected. I was very pleased with the results of my rhinoplasty, both externally and internally–as I've been able to breathe much better now. I'd certainly recommend Dr. Dibelius to be your surgeon.

Dr. Dibelius is an amazing, knowledgeable and very skilled surgeon. I am 3 months post revision rhinoplasty and I could not be happier with the results. I was so afraid to have another rhinoplasty 20 years after the first one but was so unhappy with the "pinched" and elongated look of my nose. Dr. D spent a full hour with me in our first meeting going over what my desired outcome was and what his professional opinion and approach would be. It was important for me to find a plastic surgeon that did only rhinoplasties and who was experienced in revision rhinoplasties, as I knew it would not be a straight forward typical surgery. Dr. Dibelious is exactly this person. He called me the day before my surgery to check in and go over everything again and always asked if I had any questions or concerns. The surgery went very well, a cartilage graft from my rib was utilized and a deviated septum was also repaired. The healing process has been as expected and at each post op office visit I am reassured by Dr. D (and the wonderful Amy!) that everything is progressing as it should. I am so thrilled by the outcome of my surgery and no longer feel self conscious about my nose.

Dr. Dibelius performed a complex rib-graft rhinoplasty to improve some cleft-palate related issues that were affecting the shape of the nostrils and nasal tip in particular. I had two procedures as a teenager that failed to make as big of an improvement as I had hoped and also made the prospect of an additional procedure even more delicate. But Dr. Dibelius exceeded my expectations and I doubt there are many surgeons in the country who could have achieved such a strong result. Not only were the results great, but he was also exceptionally clear and communicative throughout the entire process, and worked diligently to quickly schedule my procedure during a narrow window of time when it worked best. Approximately six months after the procedure, I'm still blown away by the results, and Dr. Dibelius still schedules semi-regular checkups to monitor the results at no additional charge. If your situation is particularly complex or unique, I cannot recommend Dr. Dibelius enough. He is an expert and a professional.

My experience with Dr Dibelius was by far the best I ever had. I am happy with my nose now after two failed surgeries. He literally saved my mental health and I feel so much better about myself now. Thank you!

Dr. Gregory Dibelius is undoubtedly a life saver. Unlike many other surgeons who dismissed my concerns and questions about surgical techniques and anxiety related to revision rhinoplasty, Dr. Dibelius displayed exceptional care and confidence right from our initial consultation and continued to do so throughout subsequent follow-ups. He dedicated ample time to thoroughly address all my inquiries, providing unwavering assurance. My journey with Dr. Dibelius began when I was emotionally struggling after a previous septorhinoplasty performed by another doctor. This procedure was intended to address severe breathing difficulties resulting from sports injuries and assault to the nose, but it left me feeling like my ethnic identity was erased and my nose was botched. The previous surgeon disregarded my worries and denied the evident outcome, offering a revision with ear cartilage as a remedy. However, I wasn't willing to take any further risks after experiencing an unusually lengthy surgery of almost 7 hours, followed by an extended duration of facial swelling (9 months), 7 months of bleeding, a hematoma, synechia, over-resection of the dorsum, a saddle nose deformity, an over-rotated tip, and other issues like asymmetrical alars and an exposed nostril. The aftermath of that traumatic experience led me to isolate myself from society like a clam. I closed my social media accounts, shifted to remote work, and haven't seen friends in over a year; it was a deeply devastating and traumatic period. However, my life took a positive turn when I discovered Dr. Dibelius. His approach to patient care is unparalleled. He is willing to invest as much time as necessary for patients to comprehend the process, the complexities, and the reality of their situation. Moreover, he possesses an artist's touch. Observing how meticulously he works on his clients' noses to restore their confidence is truly remarkable. His training under the esteemed Dr. Dean Toriumi is evident in his work, which is characterized by a sense of realism and harmony, individually tailored to each person's face. Unlike other doctors who may aim for a manufactured look akin to anime characters, Dr. Dibelius focuses on achieving genuine, natural results. I am currently just under two weeks post-op from my revision rhinoplasty with Dr. Dibelius, and the difference between my previous surgery and this one is nothing short of drastic. Last year, after my previous surgery, my face appeared swollen as if I had undergone a face transplant and rhinoplasty simultaneously, even though that wasn't the case. However, this time around, there is absolutely no swelling of the face! The contrast is like night and day, and there are no signs of bruising or bleeding; it's almost as if Dr. Dibelius performed a miracle. I had high expectations for the results, but what truly amazed me was the incredibly short downtime, even though I had a rib graft. The entire duration of both procedures was less than 4.5 hours, showcasing Dr. Dibelius's exceptional expertise. The results truly speak for themselves, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to choose Dr. Dibelius for my revision rhinoplasty. For anyone considering a primary or revision rhinoplasty, stumbling upon Dr. Dibelius would be an incredible stroke of luck. He is super specialized in rhinoplasty, focusing exclusively on noses, and is truly a diamond in the field of surgery.
