Hey, I'm S and I am 21 years old. I have always hated my nose and even though a lot of my friends say there's nothing wrong with it, I see everything wrong with it. First of all, it has a bump from the side and while that's not a huge hump, the thing that bothers me the most is how much my nostrils are showing. It's ridiculous, you can see inside my nose at all angles and they are large. My columella sticks down very low plus my nose is just upturned overall.
I have been looking for a suitable surgeon and haven't found one without bad reviews as well. A good friend of mine that is a plastic surgeon as well recommended dr. Stefan Gonschior with MYA clinic.
I went in for a consultation and he was very friendly and reassuring and also didn't seem to push me into having it done. It will be an open rhinoplasty and he asked for the liberty of deciding whether to do certain procedures on the operating table as he always goes with his gut. While that might seem worrying, I think and hope that such a praised surgeon certainly knows better than me which procedures work better. I prefer having a subtler result rather than him trying to change too much and end up looking a mess!
I booked my rhinoplasty for the 8th of April and am very excited and looking forward to it! I will update accordingly.

(The cost is £6800 but I put the equivalent in $ as it would't let me change it.)

I have heard a lot of good things about Lucian Ion, he is also a fellow Romanian and that would be nice. I am starting to get worried at all these unsatisfied clients of dr Gonschior's.

After doing a night of research on dr Lucian Ion and Bassim Matti, they have exactly like dr Gonschior, a few very bad reviews from unhappy clients. But they are all considered the best rhinoplasty surgeons in London. I will never find a plastic surgeon that has nothing but happy clients. And I really like dr Gonschior and feel like he is my best bet. I am not discrediting your experience with him, and I am very sorry it has happened to you, but he has many other happy patients and you are only a couple of weeks post-op. I can't base my decision off of what a couple of people on the internet are saying, I hope you can understand. And I hope that as time passes and swelling goes down, you'll be happier with your nose x

I'm three weeks Hun. Best of luck I hope you are happy with your outcome x

I also had mr gonschior. I'm 4 mths PO. I don't think my nose is going to improve :( I wanted to keep it long and pointy. My nose also wasn't bad I just wanted it perfecting a little, slight crook making more straight and small hump removed. And slight upturn.
I feel too much has been removed and my nose looks flat and droopy. I don't know what's happened :-( mr G won't see me again until my 1 year check up although I addressed my concerns at my first and only check up. I just hope I can get this fixed. I feel horrendous. I look back at my old nose wishing I never did this. X

He seriously won't see you before then?! Even after all I have been through my surgeon made it clear I could always come see him. And first and only check up and he won't see you until a year? Red flags. Thank you so much for sharing and so sorry for your experience.

My rhinoplasty is also on the 8th of April! Hopefully we can get through this together and have amazing noses at the end :):)

I wish I had your small nose! If I did I never would have started with this wretched rhinoplasty process. It is emotionally and financially taxing and sometimes taking away parts of the nose reveals new issues and asymmetry. I know that there are aspects of your nose that bother you but trust me you are beautiful.
February 24, 2014
I wouldn't recommend it. You're very beautiful as you are. Please read my review. There is no turning back with rhinoplasty and it is an emotional roller coaster x

Hey Alicia, I think your results are pretty amazing. I know it won't be easy in my first few weeks but I am willing to take that risk.

Okay, for the girls that said I don't need it, this is a better picture. Look at how my columella hangs ridiculously low and how crooked the nose looks when I smile. Plus the permanent excessive nostril show.

Even after the picture you just posted, I still think you don't need surgery, you are very pretty and nose isn't that bad but do whatever makes you happy because it's your nose you're face and we all have our insecurities.
