How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

So I just passed the 2 month mark. I don't have much to report other than the swelling has gone down. At each of my two post-op visits I received kenalog shots, for 3 in total.

The tip is still a little bit numb, but it's no longer hard. So glad I did it!

Just had a (nearly) 1 month post-op meeting. Dr. Shah said I was still quite swollen in the tip, which I am. He gave me another kenalog shot on both sides of the tip to bring things down, but said otherwise I'm healing well. He also gave me the green light for running and my normal exercise. Super excited about that.

3 weeks post op!

The swelling has gone down a bit, and I'm starting to like my profile - for the first time ever. I meet with Dr. Shah next week to review my progress, but he told me when my splint came off that my swelling will take several months to subside.

I also added a before/after profile pic (the after is just shy of 3 weeks post-op) for comparison.

I chose Dr. Shah after reading many, many reviews of doctors in the Chicago area. He is a very professional doctor who takes the time to explain his philosophy towards his work. I didn't want to look drastically different, just a better version of me. Dr. Shah understood this thoroughly and it came through in the morphs he presented. He is always calm, no matter what kind of curve ball you throw him. I am a busy professional and I can sometimes be curt with my questions. He was never phased by this, and made me feel 100% confident in his ability.
