TRULY VERY HAPPY WITH RESULTS FOR MY RHINOPLASTY !!!!?? I was an Out of town patient who came to see Dr raja srour & my first impression was I honestly wasn't sure if he was the Dr for me mostly because we didn't speak much and my consultation went really fast , although I had my doubts I scheduled surgery for the following Tuesday ... when the day of surgery came all I can say is that all my worries went away Dr raja took very good care of me and had amazing bed side manner he even helped me get a hotel and a ride there because he wanted to check up on me after surgery. He truly is a great Dr :) Updated on 23 Aug 2019: Hello all !! I just wanted to post a few pictures of my nose 2 year post op dr raja srour for my rhinoplasty , I'm thinking my nose may still have swelling because immediately after cast removal it seemed to be smaller than it is now. I did really like some things about it then even tho I knew immediately that I wanted a revision. After a while of giving it time and letting it heal properly that way I can better tell if I even want a revision....I have had 2 years to think about it and I still want a revision mainly to fix the bridge of my nose i feel it is short and so is the length of my nose . I've done alot of research and decided that I would like to have bridge augmentation to raise the height of my bridge and also to have tip projection in my nose.
I had a Rhinoplasty by Dr. Raja Srour in 1990 and couldn't be happier with the results! I LOVED my nose when he did it and I love my nose still. (No redo's necessary!!!) He is an excellent surgeon. After my nose I had a Breast Reduction by Dr. Srour then a couple of years later received silicone implants. I loved my breasts after he did his work. Later in 2000 I have the implants exchanged for new implants. My breasts still look amazing after almost 25 years. For an experienced surgeon who really is talented and excellent at what he does, Dr. Srour is a great choice in the vast field of surgeons.
I Recently Had A Breast Augmentation Procedure By Dr Raja And I Am So Happy With My Results..He Did an Amazing Job .So Glad I Came With him he gave me exactly what I wanted.Also His Front desk assistant Alina was great sweet girl she was very helpful with everything as well as his nurse assistant I was very pleased with everything and I will definitely recommend him for anyone that wants a procedure done he is very honest doctor,he tells u exactly what will be better for you..He made me feel really comfortable.I Am really happy with my procedure and I have nothing but positive things to say about my visits here .Thank You Doctor!i am very pleased with your work.You Did a Great Job!
I was always self conscious about my boobs as they never developed very well I was a 34 A/34B but always felt like a kid. I've been wanting a boob job since I was 18 and for many years I stood firm to my decision so I knew it was right for me after being able to afford them! I got them done 3 weeks ago with 385cc moderate profile above the muscle with an under boob incision! I've never been happier my entire life I feel more complete and can fit into many things I couldn't before and my huny also loves them???????????? Updated on 5 May 2016: Over all pain isn't bad anymore feeling great boobs are actually seeming bigger the more they settle Updated on 6 May 2016: I had my surgery done on April 12 at 8 AM. It has been approximately 3 1/2 weeks since surgery so I feel like most of my swelling has gone down enough for me to try to size myself. So today I decided to size myself the correct way with a measuring tape so I know exactly which cup size I am. Before I was a 30 4B. I I just measured from my back under my armpit to the fullest part of my breasts on top of the nipple and I am 37 inches which means I am a D cup !!!! I am so excited because I thought I would end up being a small C . And I told my doctor before surgery I wanted the biggest that I can fit on my body because I was worried that I would have to come back to get an enlargement if they were too small. He gave me exactly what I wanted I've never been happier and feeling really great today! From what I heard from doctors measuring yourself at a 34 inches makes you and a cup a 35 is a b cup a 36 is a C cup 37 is a D cup and so forth every inch brings you up a cup size ????????????

I will be flying into california tomorrow evening and be there the morning of nov 3rd. Surgery will be November 5th! quite nervous! Ive been planning this out for basically all my life. I have been self concious and dont feel very photogenic. Although I am told all the time Im very beautiful & there is "nothing wrong" I really cant help but notice that my face is super small compared to my nose. Front view is not as much of a problem as the side view but I was told by another surgeon consultation 5 years ago that my nose is also wide due to bone structure. Obviously.... side view has to change! I got daddy's nose. Updated on 4 Nov 2015: I am excited! I am spending today in beautiful LA and then tomorrow morning it is it!!! Yess!! I had the consult and blood work done today and he said he can make me look much nicer than I do now?? Updated on 4 Nov 2015: I like this particular doctor because he doesnt add more things to the price. He does all the work himself and even draws the blood work himself. That to me shows that he is a perfectionist. He is very old fashioned and simple. I do not understand everyone's commentary about his office? It is neat & clean but if you want leather couches and flat screen tv's in lieu of a good doctor then... well ok... lol. I am happy so far with my choice. Tomorrow is the surgery date and I couldnt be more pleased. This doctor has been around a long time but I feel like not all of his patients write reviews online. I will definately put in a good word for him when everything heals. Updated on 5 Nov 2015: Dr. Srour's assistant by the way (Alina) very sweet. Dr. Srour keeps it old school everything was done in his office. Even old school picture taking with film :) Still I chose this doctor because of his skill level, and his eye for artistry. Yes I am beat up. After a rhinoplasty please do not expect yourself to look presentable right away. The photo is very graphic. however I noticed already even with the cast on that it looks considerably smaller. Alina said it looks very good (she saw it before he put the cast on) Honestly the scariest part of the surgery is when he broke the bone in my nose and scraped. I am happy he let me know what he was doing while he was doing it. The surgey was actually quick and afterwards he had me rest for an hour before I went back to the hotel. Alina helped me into the wheelchair and pushed it out to the rental car with my mom who thankfully could help me through this as well. Updated on 6 Nov 2015: Rough night because packing was in my nose! This morning Dr. Srour removed the packing so now I can breathe through my nose like normal. Also because I dont normally take any pain pills and the Vicodin made me nauseous. However regular extra strength tylenol seems to be doing the job just fine. Bruising is down& swelling is down but my secret to that is Arnica tablets and arnica gel that I have been applying around the area with a q tip. Every couple of hours Ive been applying. Feel like this is an absolute MUST for recovery. I cant wait until the cast comes off. I like what i see so far!!!! There was bleeding that were at the sides of my nose because he had made an incision on the sides in order to break my bones. Updated on 7 Nov 2015: Reading up on some recovery supplements for this surgery. I went to whole foods and grabbed some more arnica tablets (2 different strengths) magnesium(calm brand) Miracle reds (i dunno... seems to have a lot of vegatables in it.. and I heard vit K was good but cant buy a whole bottle of that stuff so little packets of miracle reds seemed well worth it) some packet vitamin C and collagen. I feel like everything is healing well but wanted to be sure I was getting enough rest etc.. Magnesium is great for healing! Ive been eating a lot of raw veggies & fruit. Cucumbers, apples & bananas. Haha I went out in my disguise! It felt so weird going out in public with no makeup and sunglasses. I didnt end up wearing the hat! Its been about 2 days since surgery... These 2 nights its been hard to sleep in a tight little hotel with family... privacy is lacking! However I am making the best out of all this since Ive pretty much wanted this my whole life. Arnica tablets I took before the surgery and have been taking non stop every few hoursand applying gel around my eyes. Pain killer of choice is tylenol... vicodin is way too strong for me. I heard that ibprofen was not good for recovery from surgery because it will make you bleed... Cast comes off tuesday morning and I am hoping that everything is all looking very good and its ready to come off tuesday! Updated on 8 Nov 2015: After taking vitamin C, and the miracle reds yesterday I feel much better. Brusing is slowly healing up. Need to drink more water! Tuesday this cast comes off and I cant wait to see the results!!! I am excited. No one knows me in this town so its good. Seeing the sites! Right now visiting a cool little diner that was featured on food network. Couldnt be happier. Looking a little rough! But again, lets be real! Not touching up my photos. Its not time for makeup yet.. time for healing & wearing my shades! 8) Updated on 10 Nov 2015: So there is stilla lot of bruising! But I will eat more pineapple (still taking arnica tablets and applying cream) Able to wear makeup! (Thank you!) I felt so ugly and gross... but again no one knows me in this town... I already feel tons better about myself but it really hurt when he took the cast off and applied tape. He told me a technique to bring swelling down. All in all this Dr knows his stuff. Pretty office or not. definately coming back here for a vacation! my it is nice 8) Updated on 10 Nov 2015: a side view 8) Updated on 12 Nov 2015: So looking at the sides if my nose it looks amazing! However now Im a little worried because I noticed that he broke the bone with little incisions under my eyes.... and so now from the front I look kinda silly in my opinion. I was told that I can massage it out. I am doing everything I can to smooththings out as I will be returning to work within days but I am feeling very panicky... Updated on 21 Nov 2015: So its been aprox 2 weeks after surgery. Unfortunately I wasnt informed not to wear glasses after surgery without taping them... hoping that indentations go away but then again I had only been wearing them off and on for a week... without the cast... sooo otherwise I am starting to really like my nose. It matches my face more eventhough the tip & sides of my nose are still VERY swollen! Updated on 23 Nov 2015: I started to tape up my nose last night and already feeling tons better.. since I didnt have work today I practically left it on all day. I pushed a little on the side where I felt it looked a bit uneven because one side was more swollen than the other.. I notice that when I wake up it seems super swollen.. also I wanted to iron out any marks i may have made wearing sunglasses... in error.. :/ In addition I started putting arnica ointment in my nostrils to calm down some inflammation. When I sent the Dr. photos he seemed surprised at how well Ive been healing because I guess at this stage people normally still have bruising but Ive been using bromelain and arnica tablets... which I actually ran out of today! ha but I will get more in time... I dont necessarily think that taping does much wonders but at least its preventing some swelling from accumulating overnight. Hoping for a pretty final outcome. At times I freak myself out by taking photos that are too up close and then comparing my rhinoplasty to others.. Cause there are literally zero incisions under my nose... which 99.9% rhinolasty patients seem to have... I just had tiny incisions under my eyes in order to break my wide nasal bone.. which are now healed. I know nothing about the proceedure.. Other than I hope and pray I will like the end reault after this swelling will go down. I hope that in about 3 months I will really start to like it. Its already noce because you can se BOTH of my eyes when I turn my head where as before my nose completely obsureed one of my eyes when I turned slightly... Although when I take pictures I am reluctant to post them to social media because maybe my friends wont know who I am LOL!!! Updated on 6 Dec 2015: Ugh one of those days I am not sure about my decision... one of my co workers pointed out that there is a black line on my nose.. he thought that I smudged myself with something. when I looked in the mirror.. its just a mark from where the cast was.. and I am worried that this may be more serious because I cannot find any after photos where people have that same line. Straight forward in certain lighting its more noticable. Its still pretty swollen. The bad lighting (floresent lighting) when someone looks straight at me I feel like one side is either more swollen than the other or something. Did he make an error? Is one of my valves partically collapsed? Some lighting is more flattering than other lighting... But straight on at least by now i expected for the indentations to go away and at straight on look pretty even... Updated on 13 Dec 2015: I just wish the swelling came down more evenly!!! But im going to give it more time.. the left side seems more swollen at the tip than the right. Hoping that it evens up but I have come a looong way. My nose before was not very flattering from the profile. Now its better :) profile wise... still not too comfortable with the straight on view yet... hope to get there! Updated on 23 Jan 2016: I have noticed when the moon gets fuller the swelling seems to be more prominent... Ive used some different face serum and used a dermawand on the bridge of my nose and overall I like how it looks. The indentations I was worried about seem to be fading away. Swelling has gone down significantly in the bridge and i am almost comfortable taking a front photo.. lol... overall I am happy so far with the result but Ive gone through some extra steps that are a bit unusual.. Im not even sure if the general public even knows what a derma wand is.. haha but I used it (gently) and it seems to help with swelling. Although you can see it is still very swollen.. seems more swollen on one side than the other but not as glaringly obvious as it was after a month of having it done. It was appearing that the bridge was way too smallat first but after massaging the bridge with the derma wand a fee weeks it looks a heck of a lot more normal. Updated on 3 Feb 2016: Feeling much better about my noses appearance. Hoping that swelling in the tip goes down much more nicely these next few months. I am actually pleasantly surprised. It seems I am getting more noticed from guys... I was noticed before by guys but my nose took up 1/2 my face and guy that has been interested in me even before the sugery seems to be even more interested in me now prob because of my self confidence boost :) But he hasnt seemed to notice that I had anything done.... or never mentioned it. I also realized that I can comfortably wear my hair up now.. I used to always wear my hair down at not to draw too much attention to the middle of my face! since now my nose is looking within the realm of "normal" from the side and is actually flattering! I was concerned a bit because at first it seemed the bridge was too narrow and there was uneven swelling. Also... (this may sound "different" lol) I noticed that when the moon is full swelling seems to be at its worst!!! But when the moon is getting less full swelling goes down A LOT!! It may have to do with my cycle a little too or how much sodium I have. Overall I would say its definately more looking like the nose belongs on my face although at first its a little hard to get used to... since I was so used to looking at the sides of my nose in the mirror every single day. From the front its very minor differences but from the sides (obvious from my before and after photos) I feel its a bit more dramatic but I am happy with the profile :) Updated on 20 Feb 2016: Im in love with the result so far. Pictures are getting way easier to take.. I dont have to wear gobs of makeup annnd! I noticed I can wear my hair up and not feel like everyone is staring at my nose. Still is swelling in the tip. So far so good. Updated on 17 Jul 2016: Every day of every year I hated my nose and I kept thinking obsessively what am I going to do about this? Well the time has flown by! I am happy. Although its not perfect.. I may get a revision in a year or two but I am happy that it is not that hige mass that was sticking out of my face from before. The tip is still a little swollen to me. I can wear my hair up in a pony tail withoutbeing self consious. I dont even have to worry about my nose being gigantic anymore cause it isnt lol.. Overall I am happy.. But the tip could be a little smaller in my opinion.... So thats why I say maybe I will have a revision in a couple of years. Updated on 3 Sep 2016: Well overall I really like the outcome... although I prob will do a revision because I do not like the tip very much. Its been almost a year since the proceedure. No one has really noticed. It truly looked terribly uneven for a while there which was scarey! Maybe in a few years I will get a revision to refine things further but overall I am still happy :) :) :) Updated on 9 Sep 2016: This is what I am most pleased with. I can now wear my hair up without trying to distract away from my nose. Pretty profile now :) Updated on 7 Feb 2017: :) Still very happy. Pictures to come! But the uneven swelling and what I thought was an indent is gone. Confident now in pulling my hair up! Best decision ever. Updated on 11 Apr 2017: I was worried about the results of my surgery afterwards for a long time!! Truth be told its beautiful now. Im confident pulling my hair up less anxious! However I have thought to go a little smaller perhaps later on and smooth my bridge out a little more . He didnt ruin my nostrils or do anything weird like some other reviwers claim. The only thing i would say is hes a little unconventional... i did take a lot of arnica to heal faster but there is swelling still up to two years post op. So please let the surgical site heal before jumping to conclusions like i did at first. He has a diff method than a lot of docs have to break the bone which freaked me out at first. This so far has been the best decision i have ever made. Still very pleased. Updated on 11 Apr 2017: Before and after facing camera and profile views. Striking difference when you see these side by side. My front view of my face is not much changed but the wideness has actually changed. my profile was really bumpy and lumpy back before my surgery in Nov 2015. :) Updated on 15 Apr 2017: Ok so I have to mention here that besides picking this doctor I actually picked my surgical date by surgical astrology as well lol (I never mentioned this because I felt like I would be judged a little) sounds hokey but Nov 5, 2015 was an amazing surgery date. Took quite some time to see results and I asked an experienced astrologer that knew when to pick the date to ensure the best results. Obviously pick a doc that has some skill and etc... but I figured my one and only surgey had to have the stars align just perfectly. Not all believe this but I looked back and decided to screen cap the date and am amazed at how lovely this all aligned. :) Updated on 23 Nov 2019: I think I may ask a surgeon to revise the nose a little. overall I can live with it!! i am happy that I made this decision back in 2015 and now we are almost in 2020. the only thing I dont like about it is its too pointy at the tip but eventually when I build up the funds again I may get that fixed. i am still extremely happy about it because its almost been a good 5 years since I had the work done.
Dr South gave me the most natural and beautiful rhinoplasty and breast augmentation. I couldn't be happier. The healing process for both procedures went so smooth, and everything healed wonderfully. I'm so lucky to have found someone that I could trust to work on me. He is a skilled surgeon and an amazing artist. Thank you Dr srour.
My motivation for the nose surgery was to raise my self esteem and feel secure about my self. The great thing about the surgery was that there was no pain, it was fast, and can go back to work withing three days. The cons of the surgery was just the discomfort of having the tape on my nose for a while, however it is definitely worth the wait to see the final result.
I had my primary rhinoplasty with a different Dr. in 2010 and wasn't happy with the results. Although it was an improvement from my wide/bulbous original nose, it was still very flawed and not what I wanted at all. He left it too long and downturned. It was an unfinished (half-@$$) job and I wasn't going to settle for that result. For as long as I can remember, I wanted a very feminine, shorter and slightly upturned nose. It was one of my goals in life (a dream actually lol). I felt so discouraged after my first rhinoplasty, but knew I would find the right Dr. some day who could give me what I wanted. It took me 5 years to find Dr. Srour, and he gave me my dream nose! The surgery only took about 35 minutes and was very easy/painless. The recovery was a little uncomfortable because of packing, bad bruising and swelling, which I didn't expect at all since he only worked on my tip. But most importantly, there was zero pain and I did not take any pain meds. I believe that Dr. Srour deserves more credit and rave reviews for his great work. He is extremely talented and since he is an artist, you can absolutely trust that he has a good eye for beauty. He can come across as serious and stand-offish, but he really knows his stuff and that's what matters! I recommend him to anyone for rhinoplasty without any doubt or hesitation at all. He is also extremely affordable compared to other Drs. in the area. As over the top as this sounds...I really feel like he gave me my life and confidence back. I never felt like myself after my primary rhinoplasty and would go through some on and off periods of self-doubt and depression. I now feel relieved, relaxed and I'm a much happier person. I highly suggest bringing pics of the noses you like to the consultation and surgery day. That's what I did, and I feel like that helped a lot because often times what you describe to someone verbally, isn't what they imagine. With the pictures, we were both on the same page. Updated on 2 Jul 2015: Updated on 28 Aug 2015: Here are my new pics 3.5 months post op. My nose is definitely getting more refined, especially the front view. I like it so much as is - I really hope it doesn't get any thinner or smaller. Some days, I look and feel more swollen than others, but that's expected. I would say 85% of my swelling has gone down. It no longer feels as hard to the touch as it did 1-2 months post op. I'm absolutely loving it and am very grateful each and every day for being happy with my results. This revision is the best thing I have ever done for myself in my entire life. Sometimes, I still get very sad thinking about all the time I wasted after my first rhinoplasty and how I was unhappy with it for 5 loooong years. I really wish I had done this sooner. In my opinion, life is just way too short to sit around wishing you could change something. If you have the resources, don't even think twice - just go for it!! Dr. Srour is awesome and I cannot thank him enough. My confidence and outlook on life sky-rocketed thanks to him. Best of luck in your search and your surgery to anyone reading this. There's no reason why you can't get the nose you want. Don't ever let any doctor tell you otherwise! If they do, keep looking for one that will help you.
Different surgeons have a different attitude towards massaging breasts after surgery. In our practice we advise patients to start massaging their breasts a couple days after surgery for about a minute twice a day and this for as long as they can remember to do it. A hand is placed below the breast pushing the implant up and around in the pocket and then the other hand pushes the implant down and around after releasing the pressure of the other hand.
The choice depends on many factors among which is the degree of the drooping, the position of the nipple, in regard to the inframammary crease, the quality of the skin, the size of the implants, and the patients expectations. The best answer is given individually at the time of consultation and different options are discussed.
In most girls, breasts cease developing along with the rest of the body usually between the age of 16-18.
After Rhinoplasty, a splint is placed over the nose for one week. By then most of the swelling is down and even with the remaining swelling the nose will show its new shape. At that time most people can return to work looking presentable but have to refrain from physical activity for another two weeks. Most noses take between 6-12 months to settle down and acquire their final shape.
Not necessarily. Tip rhinoplasty can be performed without disturbing the dorsal implant if you have no concern about the bridge of your nose.Replacing the dorsal implant with an L shaped tip and dorsal implant is another possibility. If your body has already tolerated your dorsal implant, the possibility of infection after tip plasty is minimal.
