I am a passionate Rhinoplasty and Facelift Surgeon, dedicated to delivering only the best treatments and outcomes for patients.
Dr Ha is amazing! I had a huge bumpy nose that I struggled with FOREVER. I had always thought about a rhinoplasty but never seriously considered going through with the surgery. I met with Dr Ha and we discussed my issues with my nose and he provided me with images of what my new nose could potentially look like and I was so elated with the possibility that I decided to go through with the surgery. I am so happy with my results and I still catch myself smiling when I look at my nose and realise that the nose I have now is what I had always dreamed and wished I was born with. I am no longer self conscious when I’m side on to people and no longer worry that people are thinking about my bigger nose when they look at me. My nose is now straight, it’s smaller, and it suits my face so much more. Dr Ha was great throughout the whole process and a really personable doctor that I felt comfortable with. My only regret is that I didn’t do it a decade ago! However, then I may not have been able to have my surgery completed by Dr Ha which is something I don’t even want to consider. I am so happy with my nose and doubt anyone else could have done such a terrific job.
Dr Ha is an exceptional specialist on both levels professional and interpersonal. I had a deep plane facelift and he explained the procedure thoroughly both pre and post operative. The results are amazing and with unnoticeable scarring. The staff were friendly and helpful and very accommodating to assist with any queries. Dr Ha made himself available at any time of the day for any concerns or issues. I thoroughly recommend DR Ha's services.
I had a great experience with Dr. Ha. He was incredibly professional and also had a great bedside manner. He was very friendly and made me feel very confident and safe with any worries I had leading up to the surgery. I also had some health concerns with the anaesthesia and he made sure I spoke to the anaesthetist well before the surgery to make sure everything would go as safely as possible. After the surgery I was treated incredibly well in the hospital and the entire time I felt like I was in safe hands. He had a great team. The recovery was much quicker than I was expecting, and overall pleased with the end result.
I am very happy with my experience with Dr Ha and his team. Amazing results with my Septo- Rhinoplasty. I would highly recommend Dr Ha if you need this procedure. I put this off for years and am so glad I finally found the right surgeon and can't believe the result. My nose is super straight and looks visibly smaller. I could not have expected a better result.
Dr Ha has been brilliant! He is professional, amiable and meticulous at what he does. He really does take the time to explain the process, listen to your concerns and answer any questions you might have. He set expectations early on, explaining that my nose was challenging in some aspects, however, was confident he could achieve a great result. And he absolutely did! I had minimal bruising and swelling following surgery, and most of the pain I experienced came from the site of the rib graft when moving from supine to upright and vice versa. My nose is now more symmetrical with a smaller tip, no hump and I can breathe! My confidence has improved immensely, I'm no longer anxious when people sit next to me and look at my side profile, or when I catch glimpses of myself in other people's photos or videos. I'm incredibly thankful to Dr Ha with his wonderful smile that made me feel at ease and the hospital team who provided such fantastic care.
I recently underwent a Septoplasty with Dr. Ha and the experience was exceptional. Despite being extremely nervous, I felt so at ease with Dr. Ha's extensive experience, skill, and genuine love for his work, which were evident from the very first consultation. Dr Ha was incredibly generous with his time, ensuring every question I had was answered thoroughly. Dr. Ha provided detailed information about every aspect of the procedure. The aftercare was second to none, with Dr. Ha and this team providing exceptional support and care months post the surgery. The results are amazing and I couldn't be happier. Dr. Ha's professionalism and dedication truly set him apart. I would highly recommend Dr. Ha's services to anyone!!
I am very happy with the service i received from Dr Ha and his rooms. Can easily admit this it was a 10/10 experience from start to finish. The surgery was booked only a few months after the initial consultation. He was very thorough when explaining the process and extremely reassuring and confident. The final result was everything i hoped for. If you are after a great plastic surgeon in South Australia, this is your guy.
Dr Ha is a legend. I had the full face lift menu with neck, brow, eyes etc... in my early sixties and looking very tired through a lot of outdoor sports, and a reasonable amount of skin care neglect. I was personally not too sure if being a guy that I should really bother, but OMG what a transformation back in years. It really has reset the clock, and given me a second chance to look way younger and to take care of myself even more. You see yourself every day, and if you look younger and well kept, you definitely feel that way. It's been a tremendous adventure. Dr Ha is a really cool guy, and a very talented surgeon.
Dr. Ha is, without a doubt, the most skilled and exceptional surgeon I’ve ever encountered. I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you're considering facial surgery—whether it's a rhinoplasty or facelift—I wouldn’t trust anyone else. His expertise and meticulous attention to detail are truly unmatched. Dr. Ha’s passion for his work shines through in the care he provides and the time he dedicates to ensuring everything is perfect. Even after my surgery, I could reach out to Dr. Ha at any time, and he always responded promptly, never inconvenienced by off-hours communication. He even met with me on Father's Day at his office! Dr. Ha doesn’t rush his work; he strives for perfection, regardless of the extra time or effort required. It’s hard to imagine anyone being dissatisfied with a surgery performed by him. He also takes the time to explain every step, ensuring you're fully informed and comfortable. From my first meeting with Dr. Ha, I felt completely at ease and confident going into surgery. I feel incredibly fortunate that such a talented surgeon is based in Adelaide. Thank you, Dr. Ha—I couldn’t be happier with the results!
I can remember reading all these amazing reviews and thinking to myself... this guy is too good to be true. But here I sit, 7 weeks down the track, (after ordering 'one with the lot' - Facelift, neck, eyes (upper and lower), brow and lip... yep, the whole kit and kaboodle) and am still stunned by the results. At 59, I was the proud owner of jowls - that when you did a downward dog at yoga, if you looked sideways into a mirror, you couldn't see your face! Think basset hound on a good day! Now, thanks to the gorgeous Dr Ha, I am greeted by this fresh face each morning! It is a big decision to undergo this procedure, so what a relief it was to meet a surgeon that took pride in his work. This was also imparted to me by the staff at the hospital, the recovery staff and a lovely member of the staff who'd had the procedure and took time out to come and allay my fears while waiting to go into surgery. Every person, same thoughts - meticulous, caring and professional... oh and also does a mean plait when you have long hair - an added bonus! There was a little pain but mostly discomfort as you wade your way through the days of recovery. My eyes gave me the most hell - dry and annoying - but the rest went according to plan. Scars are lightening but like most who commented here - the top of my head (a two inch patch) is still numb but the rest is tingling and getting back sensation. And just like that...I was looking fine - with makeup - for my 59th birthday. Blew away my friends - as the result is fab! Couldn't be happier. Thanks Dr Ha!
This is a very common question with many rhinoplasty patients. There are a number of maneuvers that can be performed as part of the rhinoplasty operation that will help stabilise the tip and prevent it drooping when you smile. One established technique is called an open structured rhinoplasty utilizing a septal extension graft and tip suspension. Find an experienced facial plastic surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty to discuss with. Best wishes
Hi Sunnydee, It sounds like you are not ready. Having rhinoplasty surgery is an enormous decision and one that will either have a profound positive impact on your life or a very negative impact. Once you have the procedure, you cannot change your mind and have it un-done. Only proceed with surgery if you are 100% sure you want it and your are 100% confident in your surgeon. Best of luck
As mentioned by the other surgeons on this thread, a frontal or basal image is required to make this assessment. Your rhinoplasty surgeon is the best person to assess this. On most occasions it is best to assess the need for alar base alteration towards the end of the operation. If the alar base feels disproportionate to the rest of the nose, then a decision can be made by your surgeon at that time. Additionally, if it is not performed at your initial procedure, an alar base reduction is a minor procedure and can always be performed at a later date. Best wishes
Generally speaking, it shouldn't be an issue at all. Presuming that your local doctor has already started topical eye drops, a minor conjunctival infection should settle within a few days. Even if it hasn't completely, it shouldn't affect the ability to perform a rhinoplasty or the outcome. Best inform your rhinoplasty surgeon as soon as possible and get their personal opinion. Best wishes.
A rhinoplasty can certainly help provide balance to your face. Reducing the overall size, elevating the nasal tip, refining the nasal tip and narrowing the nostrils are common goals for many patients considering this procedure. One challenge that I can see from your photos is the thick skin over the bridge and tip. Best have a formal consultation with an experience rhinoplasty surgeon. Have a look at their before and after photos of patients with similar noses to you. Best wishes
