Big Ugly Nose

Overall, I like my new nose. It’s not perfect, but a lot better than before. My only concern is the alar scars that are visible especially when I wear makeup. My breathing is ok. There are times when I can’t breath correctly from my left nostril.

Just as I suspected Dr. Rady Rahban was absolutely amazing. After years of research all roads kept pointing to Dr. Rahban. The first time I found his work was several years ago, I called and was going to schedule a consultation, but I couldn’t afford it. I kept searching for other possible ethnic Rhinoplasty surgeons, but I was never fully satisfied with their work. Some doctors had some great work, but it wasn’t consistent. My nose was not a typical bad nose, it had its fair share of defects and only a highly skilled surgeon was going to tackle it successfully. A highly skilled surgeon was not going to be cheap, so when I finally reached a point in my life where I could afford it, I decided to schedule the consultation with Dr. Rahban. I booked the consult aware that the procedure was going to cost me 10 – 15 k. The consult was day and night compared to others I’ve attended, it was very personal and obvious he truly cares about his patients. He was not a sales man, he was professional and very straightforward and let me know what he can and can’t do for me. I booked the procedure the same day and anxiously waited for the big day. I fell in love with my new nose the second he took off the cast. I’m currently 8 weeks post op and it keeps getting better..

Ok so I've wanted a nose job ever since I was 15. I'm 30 now and am still searching for the right doctor. I dont have a nose that can easily be categorized, which has made my search that much harder. It's plain and simple horrible from every aspect and angle.
My 1st consultation was sometime in 2012 with Dr. Karam in San Diego, it was a in and out consultation. I knew this was not the doctor, I needed a doctor that was going to put more effort into really understanding my expectations.
My 2nd consultation was with Dr. Lehockey in Bakersfield. I spent more time with the assistance than him. Quickly assured me, he can do it etc. I know my nose and its not that easy.
So now I'm on to my 3rd consultation with Dr. Rady Rahban in Beverly hills. I'm very excited, but scared to get my hopes up. He has great reviews and although I did not find many before pictures that are comparable to mine he seems skilled to tackle this mess.
I'll keep everyone posted on this journey..
