African American Rhinoplasty - Columbus, OH

Okay this is the third time I have tried to write...
WORTH IT$8,500
Okay this is the third time I have tried to write this review if it erase again after this time I give up. So that you may tell you because I got my Brazilian butt lift done by dr. Yily back in March. I was the one who unfortunately got robbed while there. Initially I was going to get my rhinoplasty done and it Dominican Republic. I decided to wait so I got back to the states to do it. I did my research here on realself and found a girl who had her procedure done by dr. Shah. She had the best work I have seen so far. He did an amazing job on her nose. I contacted his office and was told that it will cost $100 for a consultation. I went in the next week and spoke with him. We both decided that I would need a bridge place in my nose I would need to have my nose broken in order to bring my sides. Dr. Shah gave me two options. The first was using an artificial graft and a second was using a piece of my own rib which I decided to use. About using a piece of my own rig will cost me $2,500 more it was less likelihood by body will reject it and he was able to save it more to get the shape that it when I both wanted. Dr. Shaw his staff were very nice and very attentive answered any questions that I had. I then schedule my procedure out for September 20th

Day 1-4
Day 1 Tue the day of procedure they told me not to bring anything but Loose clothing and maybe some Gatorade as well as the medicine that they gave me prior to having my procedure done.
I don't remember much of this day after your procedure I have friends over who helped because I was not able to walk and I was not able to talk maybe because I was intubated my procedure was supposed to be 4 hours long with the rib graft a friend said it's an upwards of six hours. She said I was all the way out of it I slept the entire day once I get home. Side note my friend said it kept bleeding from my eyes which was weird
Day 2 wasn't so bad I was really tired I didn't feel much pain and I know I felt slight pain in my ribs. Dr. Shah called me and made sure I sent him pictures. He also check to see if I needed anything. That was very nice of him
Day 4 Friday was the worst I woke up in so much pain. If I like somebody was taking turns throwing bricks at my face. My face swell up so bad my eyes are so puffy and black I didnt even recognize myself. Dr. Shah said that is normal. His nurse called me and had me Email her photos. I took pain medication which gave me a headache. Guess I'm going to have to suffer through.

Why are you bleeding from your eyes? This seems so scary. I do hope all is ok and wish and pray that you have a speedy recovery with great results.

Day 6
Today is Sunday day 6. I'm not sure to say day five or six my procedure was done last tue. Either way today I awake with my cast laying next to my face. Not sure how it got there I must have knocked it off while sleeping .I rushed to the bathroom to see my face and was horrified at what I saw. I don't even want to post a photo beca use i know these are not my true results. I immediately text my doctor he responded right away. He told me to retail the cast and come in first thing Tuesday morning when he returned. I did just as he said. He also said that I was very swollen for the cast must have been loose for some time, because I was not supposed to be feeling like that. I'm going to post but I'm staying positive these are what my result will be. My nose,lips and face is very swollen. My nose is crooked and to the right. He told me not to worry. I finally got fresh air today my swelling went down. I'm preying for the best. Will update after tue appointment.
I forgot to tell you all. He had to cut into the incision Yily made when she did my breast augmentation to remove my piece of rib

Fyi my upper lip is very swollen idk why. I know my nose look crazy my cast isn't supposed to be removed until the 8th. I'm remaining positive and trying not to freak out

It is common to freak out. When my cast came off i was think98 what the...... did i do to my face. I forgot about my nose looking lopsided lol, but it is all swelling. Make sure you stay away from salt because you will have swell hell. I went to see dr, shah last Wednesday and he said my nose is still improving. Remember thick skin takes longer to heal and you won't see you final result until a year or more
