Revision Looks the Same!

$4,300

Had revision about 2 years ago and my nose looks the same! What should I do? Do you think she should fix this? I mean I paid $4300 for the intial procedure. My nose/nostrils look so different and crooked! I think it looks worse than before. Im so mad that I rushed into this with out doing research on surgeons in my area.

Thank you for sharing your experience! Here's a post about finding the right revision surgeon for you.

You will have to travel to see an excellent doc. I think you have a really good doc in Michigan. Check out the RS revision list.
Dr. Zuliani in Dearborn.
Thank you for adding her name, a doctor ruined my sister nose and I am a bull dog for my family,, will sooooo ruin his career in media if he doesn't fix issue,,, let's stop this bad doctors!!

I am one month post-op from my Rhinoplasty and I am not very happy. She only did tip work and raised my columella and my nose still looks big, and my nose is very crooked. It looks like she stitched my columella back on crooked. Also my nostrils look VERY different but at my 1 week post op she said there isn't anything you can do about 2 different sized nostrils.

Oh, this was a disaster :-(, In your profile looks a little upturned! and front the two size nostrils is inhuman! YOu should wait for at least 6months to see full recovery, I Had a surgery in Mexico about 10years ago. My nose was soo bad upturned and fat> I had to pay double to be fix in Beverly hills! worth every penny after that..
good luck,, be a patient.
I'm very sorry. Your doctor did a terrible job. I wouldn't be very happy either. I hope it gets better over time.

I'm sorry to hear you're not happy with your results. Did you doctor mention that this could still be swelling?
