Revision Rhinoplasty Needed- Nostril Asymmetry - Brisbane, AU

Hi there, I am planning on having a revision too. I have researched some surgeons in the Brisbane area but it has been challenging to find ones who specialise in revisions and there's many surgeons who do not have before and after pictures or patient reviews to view online - so booking consultations seems to be the only way to see their work. My advice would be to book a consultation with a Plastic Surgeon (FRACS) who preferably specialises in revisions. Be cautious of ENT Cosmetic surgeons as they do not have the years of experience as Plastic surgeons. In consultations ask to view before and after pictures, even ask if you can contact previous patients for reviews if possible. See a few different surgeons before settling on a decision. Your GP might be able to refer you to a specialist.
I have had one consultation with Dr Raymond Goh in Fortitude Valley. He was easy to talk to and he gave me feedback about my nose. Another surgeon I am yet to see is Dr Paul Belt, also in Fortitude Valley, I cannot give my opinion on him yet but I have been told that he is "good". I hope this helps a bit :-)

Good luck, hope u find a good surgeon. I feel like its so hard finding a good revision surgeon in australia. Most of them are general plastic surgeons who do it all. I am almost 3 years post op and in melb and ive given up on searching for a surgeon here. My initial surgery was with one of the better ones and it came out terrible so i just feel like i have to live like this with my deformed nose. I hope you have better luck than me :)

My only advice is - go to the US and get it fixed by a revision specialist. There are no decent revision specialists in Australia.

Having had a primary rhinoplasty and 2 failed revisions in Brisbane I would advise going to the US if possible. That is where I am looking now as don't have any faith in the surgeons here.

Hey. Dr Nettle is one of the surgeons that I plan on seeing. He has good patient reviews and before and after pictures of revisions on this website and his own. Hope you can find a surgeon soon :)

You need to see him in person to make up your mind. If u want to go to the UK, Mr Ion is the absolute best. In the US, seems Dr Richard Davis is the one. All the best. x

I have yet to see him, but he is in my top 4 right now as far as virtual research and speaking to/emailing other patients.
Have you emailed him your pictures? I did and his assistant sent me back his assessment.
The problem is, he wouldn't answer any further questions until I came in person. But I live all the way across the country. So that was a little disconcerting. Plus, I've read that even though he does really good work, he doesn't like too many questions (even in person) about procedure from the patient. And he won't give you a game plan of exactly what he's going to do inside your nose as far as grafting and technique.
And I'm not okay with that, personally.
I hope that if I travel there for a consult, he doesn't shut down all my questions. Because that would be a huge wasted effort on my part, to come there and then leave unfulfilled.
It's a shame, because I think his skills and aesthetic is great and looks a lot like my old nose, maybe even better. But I just don't understand how he can just not explain to a revision patient what he plans on doing with their anatomy. (if it's true)

Hi there, just wondering if you ever went through with your Revision? If so, I'd love to hear more.
