I had a revision rhinoplasty because my 1st surgery was so botched it left me not only physically scared but emotionally as well. After consulting with a few surgeons I found Dr. Mehta through Realself.com. A bit of advice, believe reviews and go with your gut feeling all the time. My 1st surgeon from Marine county (female) had bad reviews but I let the receptionist convince me otherwise, biggest mistake of my life. Anyways I saw Dr. Mehta's reviews and there were so many great reviews. I made a consultation and I was so amazed by the time he took to explain EVERYTHING about my nose and what he could do for me. Plus he answered all my questions even though his office was officially closed he didn't rush me. I decided that I would go through with it and even when my surgery had more obstacles than he had predicted, he spent more time fixing the problem. Dr. Mehta is a perfectionist and he really did a great job. I am really happy so far and have gotten my nose back to looking normal but most of all my confidence back. Thank you Dr. Mehta for caring about your patients :)

Amazing results! I'm wondering if you know what type of grafts he used? And did he tell you if you had an inverted v deformity? Happy healing!
August 13, 2014
He did use rib that probably was the hardest part of my healing but even two weeks out I'm feeling a lot better. Thanks.

I'm trying to find a revision surgeon are you extremely satisfy by the way you look gorgeous !my left side is very thin I was hoping if He can fix it .
August 27, 2014
Hi, you know what it's only been 3 1/2 weeks so im still a bit swollen but so far I am satisfied. I can't tell you were to go but a consultation never hurts that way you can determine if you like the doctor. I really like dr. Mehta, I feel he cares for his patients and wants to achieve my goals as to what I want to look like. Thank you for the compliment:)

Dr Mehta I had a primary rhino 20 years ago - although the nose wasn't pleasant looking I could functionally breath from it I decided to update the look a year ago and remove the " pinch" and the collapsed appearance in the nose Now I am having all sorts of breathing problems? Any chance you can help?
