It’s been over a year since my 2nd rhinoplasty...
It’s been over a year since my 2nd rhinoplasty with Dr Ashkan Ghavami in august 2014 he ruined my nose completely give me a huge bulky nose, bulbous tip, collapsed bridge, pushed in columella, my nose is a complete botch..... I had to wait a year in order to get another rhino to fix his mess…so i started my research...
After tremendous researches through worldwide forums including realself, makemeheal, rateMD, etc etc..since months. I narrowed my list between Dr Richard Fleming, Dr Jay Calvert and Dr Andrew Frankel. I found, Dr Fleming is extremely nice but he does not do much tip work and thats what I need. Dr Calvert is very confident but extremely expensive $40k …
So I finally decided to go with Dr Frankel, During the first consultation he spent over an hour with me and explaining everything in great detail. He took photos and spent a good amount of time discussing everything he would and could accomplish. He will narrow the tip, make higher strong bridge, showing lil columela, and remove old scars. My goal is to get a really more refined tip from the front view; moreover, slim long nose . My first consultation went very well 5/5.
After 3 weeks, I set up another consultation with him (the only thing I dint like that he consults with his fellows) and I wasn’t comfortable so I dint ask him many questions at that time - but Dr Frankel again explained me everything in detail again, 2nd consultation went fine 4/5.
After 2nd consultation, I booked my surgery date , paid the balance (fees) done with all the requirements as required - but I wanted to meet one more time again with Dr Frankel (not with his fellow) before my surgery, so I requested another consultation and this time I wanted to go over everything in more detail. Sadly, Dr Frankel didn’t give me his time and asked me not to repeat my questions over and over. I felt neglected and his attitude was completely changed …I found it very weird…. My surgery is on September 24th and am so worried and depressed with Dr Frankel’s behavior….should I still consider him or cancel my surgery??? Anybody??? I like Dr Frankel and I totally trust him he is a great surgeon, I was surprised with his attitude …..
I will be posting my pics and you tube videos soon.....

Operation successful
Hi everyone, sorry for the late update..
operation went successful, Dr Frankel met me before the surgery, he put me on ease, I really like him. My surgery was at 2.50-3 hours..he used both of my ears for grafting
Am doing great, no swelling, no bruising
Left ear hurts the most but the rest is fine...
Keep you all posted...thanks everyone
