I am a 29 years old girl and I just had my revision rhinoplasty with a highly skilled surgeon in Birmingham Al. The surgery was a revision because it was the result of Robert Colgrove's screw up. Colgrove performed a rhinoplasty surgery on my nose in January of 2010, and the result was a complete disaster. I looked worse after the surgery than I did before. I have pictures to prove it. Colgrove is not a facial plastic surgeon and when he tries, he screws it up. I visited 3 highly skilled plastic surgeons and all were afraid to touch me after looking inside and outside my nose. They asked: who did this to you? I had to tell them. Robert Colgrove. I finally found a surgeon that said I can fix you nose. I paid a lot but he fixed it. The new surgeon quoted me a timeframe of 2 hours for the revision surgery. It actually took him 7.5 to fix what Colgrove screwed up. I have attempted to call Colgrove's office, however, his staff tell me he is not in the office every time I call. I plan to report him to the board. This is unethical. If you have a need for facial plastic surgery, I advise that you do not see Colgrove.

Colgrove's work. This is actually a good picture compared to what it looked like in person.
