It's been sometime since I made a update from my surgery in 2014 with Dr. Slupchynskyj. My changes are so natural most people do not realize what I had done however they certainly are aware that my face has changed! For anyone considering this surgery, it has been 2 years since my surgery date and I'm still pleased I choose Dr.S, my surgery was almost pain free, and within 3 weeks I was back to work as all my bruising had subsided. It took about 3 months for me to see a reduction in the fluctuation of the swelling, and about a year for the majority of the swelling to subside, however the changes in the bridge of my nose and the width were always noticeable to ME. If you have any questions feel free to message me here.
Having met with three plastic surgeons overseas to find the right one for some facial cosmetic surgery, I was basically overwhelmed with all the information and options provided by the various practitioners. So I decided to do my very own search for a surgeon who would perform cosmetic surgery with natural results and was referred by a nurse to the Aesthetic Institute in New York City. I did eventually have a couple of procedures done by Dr. S at the Institute, namely the SLUP lift & lip augmentation, to delay the signs of aging and found Dr. S and his staff to be very friendly and highly professional. Dr. S , who is a rhinoplasty expert, took photos of me before & after these two procedures, which by the way were both highly successful. He showed me computer electronic images of what could be achieved with some rhinoplasty surgery which would have the down time of 5-7 days. Quite honestly I hesitated at first as I was really nervous about doing something so permanent to the most prominent feature on my part of my face. However, he took the time to confer and to explain things to me in a way that made me feel at ease and was very honest in explaining what was possible & not possible based on my anatomy. After all, we have different types of noses & no one size fits all. This kind of integrity established a good rapport & trust in my book and there were no sales like talk or gimmicks, just the honest sharing of the necessary information and my various options. I think what made the biggest difference between Dr S and the other three surgeons I met with was his genuine interest in my health. He asked questions about my concerns, my life style etc and I felt we were both making the decision to move forward with the rhinoplasty. Since mid April 2013, not a day goes by without me thinking when I look into a mirror how much Dr S has improved my appearance, my self confidence and consequently my life for the better. It is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I can’t thank Dr S and his staff at the Aesthetic Institute enough for making it possible and Cara his very efficient, patient care coordinator who arranged transportation and conferences with Dr S. Anyone considering rhinoplasty would do well to consult with Dr S.
