Botched Rhinoplasty Dr Khan Transform- Fulham, GB

Hi all,
I have been following this site for some time and wanted to do a full review on my rhinoplasty experience with Dr Khan at Transform to help others if they wish to use him and where I am at now with seeking help with a revision.
I had my rhinoplasty done in 2005 where I had requested for it to be straightened as it was significantly wonky and to have the tiny bump on my bridge smoothed out.
What I have been left with has completely shattered my confidence and only now have I started to look into rectifying the awful work this Dr has done.
My nose is still incredibly wonky but it now has been filed so much on the bridge I have an over operated ski slope look. My nostrils are visibly showing and one side of my nostrils has a very prominent dent where it has collapsed.
I truly wish I hadn't touched my nose as it now is 1000 times worse and I am less confident in talking to people, taking photos etc. than I was before.
I have already had a consultation with Dr Charles East which went very well.
He was incredibly kind and understanding as I literally broke down for most of the consultation.
He advised I need a graft put in the bridge to rebuild, a graft put in both nostrils, my nose re-broken to make straight.. and the list goes on.
My operation was booked for March 2015 but I have since cancelled it.
I feel incredibly nervous to go through another rhinoplasty and I do not have the support from my family who feel I should leave my nose alone - which makes it incredibly harder!
Having read so many great reviews on Lucian Ion on this site I feel I should at least meet with him too before I fully decide which route I want to take.
I am booked in for my consult in March.
I will update my post again when I have met with him to advise on how I have got on.

I think several consults with different doctors is probably a giid idea if you can. I plan to do this, Im 18 years post and just now considering seeking revision...its terrifying isn’t it...stay strong...all the best...will follow your updates.
Thank you so much :-) will keep you updated x
Someone I know had 3 botched rhinoplasties by transform and went to Julian Rowe Jones and he transformed her nose after years of hell x
Do you have any pics?
I will upload some shortly :-) x
No one is in favour of me undergoing a revision, even I'm unsure. I am no longer myself since the first one, but I'm terrified of things going worse and feeling cheated by another doctor.
I wish there were hospitals specialising just in revision and reconstruction work, with competent, ethical doctors, who realise patients are suffering and need these image and health issues to be resolved soon, instead of making them go to more dodgy surgeons at high costs and bad results.
Good luck, and I hope you find someone kind, well-trained, honest and committed. If ever you do, please share. And if not, I hope you can start feeling more at ease about yourself...I know I wish the same thing for me.
Good luck again.
