My nose is really unique and I've always hated it and with my recent weight gain, the shape is now more pronounced. I'm scheduled to have the procedure completed in four months with Dr Malhotra of Ann Arbor. I wanted a surgeon that's family with African/ African American Rhino and he is the only one that is within proximity of my bugdget and city. I will update as I go.

Take pictures of myself every day, I feel like I am making a huge mistake but If I also don't do anything about it now, I'll live my life wondering "what if?"
I am looking on here and I do not see anyone with a similar type of nose who had this procedure done. That actually scares me!

Your nose is not as bad as mine and I wish you all the luck, I've seen his work on a prior patient who showed images of the work he did on her nose and she claimed to dislike it but to me it was beautiful can you tell me what was his price range for you please

I'm sure mine is worst then yours. He quoted me for $7900 -I thought this was a bit over priced but decided to change the things I didn't like about myself so I'm doing it.

Nope mine takes the cake and Wow that is a bit much, did he show you any images of African American noses or similar noses that he has worked on before because I was truly thinking about him but if I wanted to spend that amount I would go to dr Payman Simoni or dr tavousi

Because of where I live, I just wanted to be careful just in case since I'm going to be seeing him frequently.

Yes either way I would have to travel out of my way because all of the good doctors in NYC that has done great Africa American rhinoplasty work are asking for 10,000 and up :(

Don't live with regrets babe! I have an African nose too and I just want to be my best self! Make sure to do your research so you make the right decision! I'm going to dr.janjua in New Jersey! He has natural looking nose jobs for really great price. Rhinoplasty and alarplasty is 5K.

How big is your nose? Because I actually had a procedure scheduled last week with him and that went south only because he sent me an image of a female with a similar nose that he did work on

Reach me at my email and we can discuss doctors and I can send you the patient pic he sent me 2017reborn@gmail.com

Good luck with everything. My nose pre op is similar to yours but mines was a lot bigger. I love my results but I was the same way in the beginning!

Omg Where and who did you got too, can u please share pix because I'm up to my last choice which is dr shah in Chicago because I had a consultation with him yesterday and so far his price is good and his work look good but I asked him I can speak to one of his prior African American patients also before surgery

@DillionMom do you have any concern so far regarding the ear catilage use? Did he even use that at all?

I went to Dr. Dejoseph in Atlanta Ga. He is amazing in my opinion. I was so adamant about keeping my ethnic features I did not want an implant or cartilage from anywhere in my body. He was able to build a bridge using my own nose cartilage.

He sounds amazing and that's so fantastic that your satisfied with your changes from your dr, I wish to find the right one also.

Congrats and good luck on your journey! I look forward to seeing your results as our noses are similar.

Hi everyone!
My pre-op appointment is rapidly approaching with the scheduled date for August 1st. I am vert nervous- my bf is the only one who knows I'll undergo a nose surgery-he is not in support of it but willing to transport so I guess that's better.
I'll keep everyone updated. I'm also concerned that people will noticed but as this point I don't care at all.
