Provider Review
So this is my review of my septo-rhinoplasty with Mr Tahery. Like how most reviews begin, I’ve always HATED my nose. I was never really teased about it, nor was it ever THAT bad, but I just hated it. The idea of rhynoplasty has been on my mind ever since I was 17/18, however, the risks of it always put me off. I have close family members who have been through the procedure, and it was gone TERRIBLY wrong! And it’s not always the surgeon’s fault, sometimes, even with the best surgeon, it won’t go like you want it to, which kept putting me off pursuing it! When I hit 25, I decided to do something about it, I decided to take the risk, and just go for it, so I began looking a different surgeons who specialize in Rhynoplasty. I was recommended Jawed Tahery by a family friend, and after doing a little research about him, I decided to go and see him and discuss a possibly procedure. My first opinion of him was that he was a really nice and down to earth person, and our initial conversation went really well! I was so excited and happy to have finally be doing something about my nose. 30th July was my operation, in which, medically everything went fine, and I received EXCELLENT treatment at the Nuffield Hospital in Chester. However, for those of you who have had a rhynoplasty done, you know how uncomfortable the first few nights are… 2 weeks forward, I returned to Mr Tahery and had my cast taken off. First reaction; I hated it. In fact I wanted to cry, it look TERRIBLE! However, that’s very normal after having any procedure done. After a few weeks, the nose began taking it’s shape, it changed drastically after the 6th week, and I started liking it! However, a little bump on top of my nose, as you can see in the picture, began showing. It’s not huge, but it’s visible if you were to concentrate on my nose. When I had my 6 week consultation with mr Tahery, he confirmed that he’s happy with everything besides that, and that it needs to be shaved down, in a very small and short procedure. So he I booked a procedure with him for Christmas, then changed to Easter. A few weeks before the procedure, I received a call from his assistant Lisa, telling me that Mr Tahery is not available to perform this surgery, I contacted him myself and he confirmed that he won’t be able to perform the surgery until further notice. Now, Mr Tahery has not really told me not to talk about anything, but, for legal and “good value” reasons, I choose not to disclose the conversation I had with Mr Tahery. It’s now July, and I’ve not heard anything from Mr Tahery yet regarding what's going to happen next, and to be honest, I have no idea what’s going on. His after care was good, each time I contacted him with a question he responded, and it is important to note, he did offer an alternative solution when we had our last conversation, to which I said I prefer to wait for HIM to finish off the job, and to which he said he will notify me when he can. BACK TO THE NOSE: So, am I happy with my nose? Beside the little bump, I’m very very happy with it. The procedure wasn’t 100% successful, and if someone told me that before the surgery, I would’ve ran a mile, however, I chose to take the risk. What I love most about my nose is the no one has noticed that the front has completely changed, he has done a very natural job with it and that has to be said. Would I do it again? Yes, absolutely. Even with what has happened, with everything that I have gone through physically and emotionally, I have never ever regretted my decision to have a rhinoplasty. Obviously, I can write pages and pages of my journey, however, I have decided to keep it short and simple for now! My advice: Rhinoplasty is a very very risky operation. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE YOU GO THROUGH WITH IT. But most importantly, be prepared for it not to be 100% the way you wanted it to be. Even if you go with a surgeon who is the best in the world, there’s still risks, because our bodies react differently to outside intervention. My cousin back in my home country, did an operation with a surgeon who has a waiting list of around 2 years, and her nose unfortunately went terribly wrong. And even the surgeon was confused on why it went wrong, he tried again and it just got worse and worse. DO NOT TOUCH A SURGEON who is not specialized in facial surgery. You will be doing a massive mistake if you do. The nose is one of the most difficult features to operate on, someone who doesn’t do it frequently should not be approached! This is specially important for guys who are considering this procedure, last thing you want is a feminine nose. A bent, crooked big nose looks nicer on a guy than a perfectly straight, perfectly shaped nose with perfectly sculpted nostrils! After your operation, you’re not going to become super-confident like you imagined. Much insecurity about the nose/face is all in the head, after your surgery, often you look back at pictures of your old nose and you think, it wasn’t as BAD as you thought it was! When I was considering rhinoplasty, I received lots of advice from people on here, and I’m willing to do the same. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. Obviously, my journey has not finished yet, I will keep updated once it goes any further! :-)
