Which surgeon should I pick for my revision rhinoplasty?

Question

After a failed primary rhinoplasty done by Dr. Guida in NY, I have aesthetic issues as well as functional issues - pain in the bridge of my nose and a feeling that my bridge is going to collapse. I have consulted with Dr.Miller & Dr.Pearlman in NY and liked what they both had to say, but I have read that there are other surgeons that are more renowned in revision rhinoplasty: Dean Toriumi, Russel Kridel, Richard Davis, Spencer Cochran, Rod Rohrich, Andrew Frankel, Toby Mayer Who should I pick?

MSill93,I know most of those surgeons personally and all should be able to help.  Drs. Miller and Pearlman are both great, as is Dr. Rizk in New York.In Boston, I do many of these as well and have lectured frequently on correcting exactly the problems you are having.It's unfortunate you have to go through another procedure, but you have good choices.

... but remember, it's not an emergency. Wait until you're really sure.See the "Web reference" link for a sort of check list to make sure you've gotten a good evaluation and consultation.

You have to follow your gut. All the surgeons you mentioned are excellent. It comes down to who you feel most comfortable with. RegardsDr. J
