Revision rhinoplasty
WORTH IT
I had five previous mose surgeries. Very long journey that left me with a severe saddle nose deformity. Each surgery I had my nose got worse and made the bridge of my nose shorter and shorter . I was to Chicago, Florida, New York, and Dallas doctor said that you cannot help me Or wanted $30,000. Dr. Fozo Took his time was patient with me answered all my questions. Very difficult surgery I was very nervous . Dr. Fozo and the staff was with me for the beginning to the end of this journey. Very long road I never felt alone . He was very patient with me. it was a huge step to take because of so many failed surgeries .

I had to write a review because I am so happy with my Revision. Dr. Fozo did my 6th and final Rhinoplasty Revision. This was a very difficult surgery. I search all over the U.S for a speciality doctor I am so very happy I have a normal nose again! The Staff was great. Dr. Fozo has a great bed side manner. Thank you so much Dr. Fozo and staff !!

Sixth revision! Oof! So glad it was done right this time. Thank you for sharing. Do you have any tips for others looking into getting a revision rhinoplasty?
I was referred to Dr Fozo by a Dr. Sandler a dermatologist out of Macomb. My tip is go see Dr Fozo. He is excellent !!!
I'm happy for your success, finally! Do you know what type of grafts were used? Rib/ear? Or was the bridge built up or lengthened? Any details you know of the surgery would be helpful. Again, congratulations!
Facia from my head was sandwiched between ear cartilage . Ear Cartilage is what gives my nose the smooth appearance. Facia is the new bridge. When Dr Fozo met me I had no bridge. This all began with my first rhinoplasty. Like many on this forum I went in for a little tweak on my nose to make it look a little better. My first doctor I Mrs. Tyner: This is for the JV girls softball game on Sun. 4/12. The game is at 1:30 on Field #3 at:

Dr. Fozo used facia from my head. Wrapped ear cartilage around the facia. He had just a little bit of ear cartilage to work with. My story began 15 years ago . I went in for a simple rhinoplasty ( like many on this forum) First doctor took too much cartilage off my nose. This doctor tried to go in a second time and fix the problem did not work ...Couple years later Second doctor used Alladerm to try and build a bridge this stuff disappeared ( did not work). Few years later Third doctor went in tried to build my nose with ear cartilage That surgery failed. This doctor Went in again used ear cartilage from my other ear that surgery left my nose infected. Infection ruined this graft. Years later I met Dr Fozo. Ihad no bridge .
When we decided on surgery we talked about Rib decided on facia . If you have anymore questions please let me know I'd love to help .
Wow, you have been through alot. I'm having surgery next week, and it is unknown whether it will be ear or rib until he gets in. It's such a tough process of finding a doctor and trying to figure out how to not make another mistake. So glad the nose worries have ended for you!
It will all work out. After going thru so much I did not have high expectations. Just wanted a normal nose. It's not perfect but that's ok. Doctor Fozo uses fillers now for the little dips. Have faith!!
Good luck to you!!! I did not have high expectations. However Dr Fozo made my nose better than I could ever have imagined. It's normal. Just a normal nose. I had to keep it in the back of my mind that I had 6 previous surgeries. Dr. had to fix all those mistakes the previous doctors made . My advice would be to be patient it's a long process . Dr Fozo said he would not be finished until I was 100% happy . If you have any questions I know how it feels going to this please email me.
Thank you! I'll keep you updated!
You must be very relieved after 6 surgeries! Wishing you continued good healing.
