It's been quite a journey so far...

2014: Went to Dr. Manish Shah in Denver for a nose job to fix my German "bump" and reduce the size of my nose. The "top" part of the bump was reduced, but he left bumps on each side of my nose, making it look strange and lumpy, and did not do enough work on the tip of my nose, making it appear larger than before the surgery.

2015: My nose was broken in an accident, and I was devastated. Dr. Shah was not able or willing to fix it, so I went to a Kaiser doctor for a closed reduction to put my nose back in place. For the most part, it does not look broken anymore, but I still have the bumps on each side and a larger than desired tip.

2017: After doing some more thorough research, I decided to go to Dr. Stephen Weber for my revision surgery. He has excellent reviews, and I'm very optimistic about his abilities! I wish I had gone to him when I started all of this. His office manager and staff are also top-notch.

It's crazy because I'm going next week to see your primary for my revision and you are going to my primary for your revision! Good luck to you. It's miserable to have to seek out a revision specialist and save up for it

I just saw this - that is crazy! I hope your revision goes well - I am thrilled with the results of mine. It is miserable to have to go through all of this AGAIN! And to have to pay for it AGAIN! I'm relieved that this is it, though.

That's great :) did u have to use ear or rib? I was such a grump at my consult yesterday because I really didn't want to have to do this all over again and have to save the money for it! He said I still have to wait 8 months to do anything so I'm just going to try to be patient :/

I didn't have to do any of that, fortunately. It breaks my heart to hear what you've gone through, and having to go through it again is such a pain. Especially when you've already spent so much money. But honestly, the second time around I was MUCH less nervous - I knew what to expect as far as the healing process, so I was less impatient with my healing, and I didn't freak out about every little thing... like I did last time, haha. Just remember it's a relatively short wait, then you have the rest of your life to finally enjoy having a nice nose!

Yes I just ned to be patient and keep researching :)

Hi, I want to speak with you about Dr. Weber because I am also interested in having a revision rhino done by him. I’m curious as to why you ended up choosing him and what other doctors you saw as well as how your results are. Any advice or general comments is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

My current face pre-revision rhinoplasty. You can see that the bump(s) are still there, and my nose is still fairly large.

I am officially 2 weeks post revision rhinoplasty and OMG. I am so thrilled with the results! I had kind of a rough time healing - no energy and headaches for over a week, but am feeling like myself again now.

Dr. Weber stated he would "under promise and over deliver." He did exactly that! This is exactly what I wanted from my primary rhinoplasty. I couldn't have asked for anything better. Here are some before and after pictures - clearly, still some bruising and swelling, but to me, the change is huge and I'm so happy!

I am so excited to see your photos! Everything looks great other than the usual amount of tip swelling. We are all so glad that you're happy! I can't wait to see you in person at your next followup.

I can't thank you enough, Dr. Weber! I'm fine with the swelling - it is more noticeable in pictures, and will go down in time.
