Dr. Gregg performed an open rhinoplasty on me in 2012 to remove a large hump on my nose. I chose her because she had a great bedside manner and I felt very comfortable in her hands. I was pretty happy with my nose after the surgery but in the past year or so, I started noticing that the upper portion of my nose has flattened and has a sunken in appearance - basically a dent in the upper portion of my nose. Let me state now, that I have had absolutely no trauma to my nose!! Realizing that this dent was not there before, I went to Dr. Gregg to let her look at it and see what she thought. I expected her to be kind and to be very straightforward about the obvious dent in my nose but she chose to go the opposite route and to pretend to not see it. During the appointment she went so far as to say that me gaining weight might have changed the appearance of my nose. She then suggested fillers to be injected in the bridge of my nose to help me out. I left the appointment crying.
After that experience, I took a visit to Dr. Adam Stein in Raleigh. I told him my situation and he took a look at my nose, and said that the dent was very obvious and it occurs when the nose is not broken all the way during the rhinoplasty. Apparently it's a common mistake but not one that should be made by experienced plastic surgeons. Dr. Gregg shaved the top of my nose but left open space on the front of my nose due to not breaking my nose all the way and pushing in the sides of my nose. The dent didn't become obvious until more of the swelling continued to go down in the past year. I can't remember all of the correct terminology, but all I can say is that Dr. Stein was very surprised that Dr. Gregg did this as he said that she is a very good surgeon. I am surprised as well and also very disappointed that she was not able to be mature about the situation and recognize her mistake. I will be doing a revision rhinoplasty within the next few months with Dr. Stein and I hope that he can fix my nose. The moral of this review is to be careful with Dr. Gregg. Mistakes can happen, and she made a huge one during my surgery. But she couldn't confess to it and had no desire to fix it.
