I had a rhinoplasty done at the age of 18. Living in Belgium at the time, and being a young girl, I didn't think about consulting doctor's in other countries.
I wanted a slimmer nose, no shortening or rotating of my tip. When the cast came off, my nose looked weird, but as the swelling came down, a botched, turned up, collapsed and crooked nose was revealed. I could not breathe through my nose and it was constantly dripping.
Dr. Tonnard dismissed my problems and said I had to wait. He was rude, hung up the phone on me and said "it was a mistake operating on a teenager". It sure was, by his hands.
A couple of years later, I had the resources to fly to the US and have a revision rhinoplasty done. My case was very difficult and my nose will never be perfect because of the damage this doctor did to my nose.
Dr. Tonnard took away years of my life that were supposed to be careless: going to college, dating. I was depressed for many years because of this life-altering, identity-changing botched surgery.
There is nothing I can do to turn back time, there is nothing I can do to stop this doctor. He will not be punished for his malpractice and will continue screwing up peoples faces. All I can do is hope people, even back in Belgium, will read my review and RUN LIKE HELL from this terrible doctor.
