I have been wanting to get a nose job for over 10 years now. I finally decided to have it done during Summer 2016. I knew I wanted to get at least three different consultations to get a "feel" of different doctors and different opinions. I met with two other doctors Beverly Hills prior to meeting with Dr. Markowitz, but something turned me off of the other two doctors (they just weren't a good fit for me). I met with Dr. Markowitz and told him exactly what I didn't like about my nose and what I wanted fixed. I also showed him pictures of noses I didn't like and noses I liked. Dr. Markowitz agreed with my assessment of my nose and assured he would make it more refined. One thing that I happen to like about Dr. Markowitz that others may not is that he does't photoshop a picture of how your nose will look like post surgery. A doctor never really knows how a nose will come out and he says straight up that he refuses to give false expectations. I booked a surgery with him that day. It is now two days until the big day and am starting to feel anxious (which is expected). However, I am very excited and can't wait for the outcome. Will update after the surgery!

Good luck with your surgery. Since you live in California, I was wondering why you did not consult with Dr grigoryants? It seems so many people have surgery with him and for the most part have good results.

Thank you! I'm excited for it! Truth be told I considered meeting with him, but There's something very "factory-like" to his practice. I feel like everything is very rushed with him like his patients are on a conveyer belt. This is my personal feeling only I never met with him and don't know the quality of his work. Also, this may sound strange but I don't trust when doctors don't charge a consultation fee - it's like they don't value their time and are okay seeing hundreds of patients for free. Additionally I did extensive research and grigoryants didn't have the qualifications I wanted. Lastly, I think all his noses look the same :/....hope this answered your question :)

I have to say you are absolutely right. Dr. G's noses do look the same even if they don't suit the person's face. I am sure you will be very happy with your outcome. You've done the hard part now you just have to wait for the swelling to go down. Rest and take care!

Yeah - most of his noses do like nice they're just on the faker side. Thank you for the well wishes!!! Will update day to day
