My Revision Journey Begins. Beverly Hills, CA

I agree! Call immediately or just show up! Infections are not something to mess with.

Hello There- everything is fine as of now.
what do you think about the non-surgical nose job? not sure if that even works. i want some refinement on the tip of my nose, so thinking if i should do the non-surgical procedure once the swelling goes down.

Per Dr. Frankel i dint get infection and the redness went away too. but i got some discoloration on the tip of my nose :(

Thank you dear for your concerns. I dint get an infection, Thank god!
Not sure if i like my nose or not, still swollen and i also got a dark spot on my nose tip :( :(

Thank goodness for no infection! I know how hard it is to wait for the darn swelling to go down! I am 6 months out and still struggling with a bit. One year can't come soon enough! I wonder what the dark spot is all about? How has Frankel been with questions and concerns from you?

yes, i went to see frankel and he said i got pigmentaion..so i have to wait and see if it disappears in few weeks or so.
who did your surgery? did you like the results?

What does he think the pigmentation is from? Did he say or speculate? Did he inject you with steroids right after the surgery?
My surgeon was someone in San Diego - and I'm not ready to relay publicly yet for various reasons. I am not happy though to say the very least. I

he didnt say what is it from. but he said it can be treated with laser treatment or some bleaching cream. no, he dint give me steroid. i dont even think i would need that. i have my post op appointment with him on Aug 31, hopefully swelling goes down by then.
Am sorry to hear that you are not happy with the results.
I have few things that i want to improve and thinking once the swelling goes i will ask Dr. Frankel to do the non-surgical (injection) to define the tip.
i will keep you posted :)

OK. Interesting. I would hope that you have more tip definition after going through this for the 2nd (3rd?) time with Frankel? Did he not match what you had discussed on your morphs? In any case, it is way too soon to tell. Wait until the 1 yr mark to do anything else. One year (even longer in some cases) is the best time to see what the final result will look like.
How has Frankel been otherwise with communication, demeanor and meeting your non-urgent medical needs?

Honestly, Dr. Frankel and his staff is great. They already get me in whenever I need any med emergency so no complaints on that...
Yes I will have to wait for the swelling to go down

Glad to hear that. I am considering Frankel for my revision. There have been many mixed reviews. :)

Yeah, and I can relate to some of those reviews as well of not having the good results... frankel did my nose twice and still am not satisfied or I just have to wait for the swelling...

this is my 4th surgery, 3rd was done by Frankel and didnt achive the results i expected; therefore, need another surgery.
my surgery is tomorrow and dont even know what to wish for :(

i dint get the result i wanted. my nose is still bulky and nostrills are uneven...scar is visible too
i just dont know what to do anymore :(

hello there! thank you so much again!
my surgery was yesterday. the plan was he was supposed to use my rib to give me strong bridge, but he ended up using whatever cartilage i had inside the nos. surgey was very short than expected, so am afraid what results am i going to get. hopefully good, i wil keep you posted

Keep positive thoughts and remember, recovery can be hard! Swelling really distorts things. Keep us all posted!!!

Thank you Freya!

Hey there! i'm doing fine, recovery is really impatient/restless. But i can breath, my cast comes off tomorrow. i really cant tell any difference as of yet, am not even swollen at all.
i will let you know how it goes tomorrow. thank you so much for checking on me! :)
