$9,500
So far I've completed my consultation and made the deposit and have had 3 surgery dates yet have rescheduled or cancelled every one due to work. As of right now I have no surgery date in hopes of getting a date in June. I will be out of work the entire month of June due to reconstruction so right now I'm just on the wait list hoping for a June date!!! I call every week, sometimes twice a week hoping to get something, but so far nothing. So if anyone has a date in June and needs to reschedule for any reason please let me know!

Keep calling the office! I was going to have mine in May but wanted April and due to cancellations they called me with 2 different dated to choose from in April. Best of luck and hope you get your June date!

How many weeks out did they call you? I really want June but am afraid after this week it won't be enough time considering they usually book 3 weeks out you know?

It was sometime is late March when they offered me the April date. But as long as they have all your current blood work then it shouldn't really matter just as long as you don't eat or drink anything 8 hrs before surgery.

Things change all the time and they have to move surgery dates all the time, so hopefully you will get the exact time that you need!

No, I decided not to go to him. I think he would overwork my nose. It needs a subtle change and I think he is amazing at transformation noses. I think he would make it a tad to small. He has a certain esthetic which is beautiful for the right face. Just not my face.

That makes a lot of sense! And if you need such a subtle change you can go to someone that's a lot cheaper as well who can do an equally as good job and meet your needs. Best of luck!

Have you decided on anyone else? So far I feel like I would only trust Dr. G but I too only need a subtle change and have some of the same concerns!!

try to email him directly and ask! I asked him at my in person consult and he found me date right away. I told him I was on the waiting list and wanted a may surgery date and he went right to his front desk ladies and found me a spot. I called a million times and they never had anything but when I asked him he helped right away! Also, your before nose is sort of like mine, my main issue was the projection and height of my nose. I got my surgery on monday and my cast comes off saturday! So if mine turns out good, yours should too :)

Thank you so much!! I can't wait to see how yours comes out. I've seen some girls on here who had noses similar to ours and they came out beautiful and look very natural. Thank you for your help

Hi, maybe this might be off topic but how much was your deposit? you don't have to give me an exact amount just with the percentage. Thank you!

$750.00 I think that might be their basic deposit when you go to book an appointment but I'm not really positive. That's like 8% of my total cost though

Good Luck trying to get in with a sooner date, and good luck with the surgery too ! I'm sure you will get something . A lot of the girls who got surgery with G got lucky with cancellations.
