I've had 2 consults regarding a septoplasty/rhinoplasty with 2 different physicians over this last year. I saw Dr. Dean Toriumi last year and just saw Dr. Anil Shah yesterday. After meeting Dr. Shah and going over before and after pictures and seeing his amazing work, I knew right then and there that he was the one I wanted doing my surgery. His staff is equally amazing.

11 days until my surgery!
I'm so nervous and it's still 11 days away until surgery. I sure hope my results turn out as good as everyone elses. :)

Hi Angiemcc, I have a deviated septum and the tip is crooked, all happened in a fall I took back when I was 10. :/ I'm hoping to get it fixed the way it used to be. I have a consultation again tomorrow to go over the final details. I'm SUPER nervous as everyone on here has been, I'm sure.

I have a deviated septum, my tip is uneven and have nostril assymetry from a fall when I was 10 years old. I have always wanted to get it fixed but always chickened out. This has been the root of all of my low self esteem issues. I hope after this surgery is done, I can put those feelings to rest. ;)

Last consultation before surgery.
I had my last consultation yesterday to go over the final details of my surgery, which is scheduled for Feb 19th. Dr. Shah is so nice and put my feelings at ease. I'm the type to have high anxiety and he was so honest in saying that the expectation is not to have a perfect nose, but a better version of what I have. I don't expect it to be perfect, I just want it even and to balance with my face. I don't want to look completely different than before surgery, I just want the same nose, but even. He said my case is complex and tip revision is the hardest to get right. I'm putting all my faith in this man, in hopes that he can give me what I envision. His staff has been really great, too.
