Not Happy with my Rhinoplasty - How to Tell the Surgeon?

December 6, 2011
Asked By:Loopy in Toronto, ON

I had rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago and I am not satisfied with the results. I find that not enough was done. My question is how do I express my dissatisfaction without criticizing/insulting the surgeon’s work. What happens if the surgeon disagrees with my observations of the results. He is happy with the outcome but I am not. Am I entitled to still ask for a revision (covered by him as per his policy) even if he disagrees? Thank you
