He’s nice and the follow up care is good however as far as the actual results go…. I’m going to just let the photos speak for themselves. Yeah… that plus the price makes me want to run into on coming traffic sometimes if I think about it too hard but oh well.

More info in the comments in terms of my thoughts abt Yoo BUT main reason for the update is that I’ve completely lost my sense of smell from this surgery. I’ve been to a specialist & he said it’s because Yoo built up my nose too high and the glands? that regulate smell are being pinched. Something along those lines I honestly can’t remember the explanation that well bc the appointment was a year ago but that’s the gist. My smell is maybe like 15% better but still not all the way there.

I'm only 1 month post op but the results are already night and day. I ended up getting my nose fixed in Turkey and the new doctor did an amazing job but it also made me realize how terrible of a job Donald Yoo did. The Turkish doctor even noted that Yoo made my nose look masculine, did absolutely NOTHING to my wide nasal bones, and just slapped two HUGE pieces of cartilage on my nose..... nothing else....for over $21k......
The new doctor was completely shocked to open my nose and see the ginormous piece of cartilage used in my primary rhinoplasty, he stated that it was completely unnecessary. He was actually confused how Yoo was even able to harvest so much rib. I will attach pics of my nose before/after so you can see the difference!
After my Turkish revision I'm finally able to smell again and my rhinitis isn't bad anymore. Before, I was prescribed daily steroid nasal rinses by my ENT for all the nasal irritation but after my revision it's gone! Goes to show how damaging Yoo's work "allegedly" is......
I originally said Yoo was nice but 3 years later I take it back. What would've been nice if for him not to "allegedly" lie to my face and say that he could do the osteotomy. It would've been nice for him not to "allegedly" say he did the osteotomy when he didn't. It would've been nice for him not to "allegedly" sit in my face and say an osteotomy "couldn't be done" and "would obstruct my breathing" when he literally just doesn't do that procedure... "allegedly". It would be nice for him to GIVE MY MONEY BACK!
I originally tried to say something nice about him because I was afraid of any potential retaliation but now that I see how f---ked up he made my nose, I'm not holding back. Thank God my new surgeon was able to fix my nose and it looks so so so so good. I'm so happy now. I just want to put this all behind me but I needed to update y'all first bc nobody should be subjected to this.

He told me he’d do a revision fit free and sent me to the finance woman who basically told me to pay like $9k (?i think i forgot the exact price) more to fix it because i needed to pay for the surgery center. After that I was like yeah… no and never came back.
