In the last three years, I have broken my nose...

WORTH IT$10,000
In the last three years, I have broken my nose three times playing basketball. Twice this last year. After my third fracture, I was having some nasal breathing problems and was somewhat displeased with the deformation of my nose. I decided to address these issues with rhinoplasty surgery. After having the procedure done to my nose, four months later, I couldn't be more satisfied. I am able to breath again without any nasal obstructions and I'm pleased with the aesthetics of my "new nose". The only negative experience I had, which is expected, would be the recovery. The third day after surgery was the worst day but after that, everything was uphill. I was able to return to work after a week from surgery and after two weeks, I was basically back to normal. Two months after surgery, I was able to continue all my previous sporting activities. Knowing what I know now, I would go through the surgery again without question.

At first, I was skeptical about getting rhinoplasty surgery. I was afraid of having one of those nightmare experience when plastic surgery goes wrong. I wanted to find the best doctor available in the Seattle area. After researching different plastic surgeons online, there was one clear doctor that stood out, Dr Sam Naficy. The predominant reason for selecting Dr. Naficy, besides the good reviews online, was Dr. Naficy was the only doctor I found who specialized in rhinoplasty surgery. After meeting with Dr. Naficy in person, I could tell he was passionate about his work and loved his job. Looking through his collection of past surgeries, the before and after pictures were astounding. The staff as well were friendly, caring, and knowledgeable. There was never a time that I felt uncomfortable. Dr. Naficy and his staff took all the time necessary to inform me what the plan of action was for my nose treatment and to answer all my question. My conclusion after being treated by Dr. Naficy is that "Naficy Plastic Surgery & Rejuvenation Center" is a first class organization. I was always treated in a caring and professional matter. All my questions before, during, and after my surgery were answered in a timely matter. The entire process for the surgery, payment, and recovery was provided in a clear and concise matter. I was contacted several times in my recovery stage to see how I was feeling and was able to contact Dr. Naficy off hours when I had a question. I cannot say enough on my satisfaction with this whole experience. If anyone is looking for facial plastic surgery, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Naficy.

Awesome man. Huge improvement. Congrats on a successful outcome. Just curious do you know if the doctor mentioned anything about a supra-tip break he would try? I think it looks great by the way. Just the right definition. I really hope i get the same result. Let me know what you think i should do in my post if you have a chance!
During my discussion with Dr. Naficy, he did not mention anything about a supra-tip break. My suggestion would be to contact Dr. Naficy office and see what services they could provide you. I am positive that he has done many similar surgeries like that before based on some of the photos I have seen from other patients. Hope this helps!
