Three years ago, I got a septorhinoplasty. Before, my nose was severely crooked and my septum was also badly deviated due to an injury I sustained when I was 12. I was so happy with the result until I bumped my nose 2 weeks post op. So now (3 years later) I am finally getting rid of the bump which has haunted me since!

It's good that you didn't have to look for another surgeon. I hope you get great results.

Yes, I kept his number in my phone all this time because I was so pleased with him before! I reccomend him highly to anyone in the area.

Good luck with your bump removal!  I bet you were so frustrated when you bumped it post-op.  I had a friend that got a septoplasty/rhinoplasty and then 1 month later was hit in the face with a basketball... needless to say she had to get everything redone.  I'm sure you'll have wonderful results!

My nose had bothered me my entire life. Not to sound full of myself but I love all my other features. When it was finally fixed I felt very good about myself and like I didn't have to worry about it ever again. Then when I bumped it, it felt like a bad dream I could not wake up from! Needless to say, I am so dang excited for March. Feels like forever away though!

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry about that bump just two weeks post op. You must've been sick about it! I hope this time around goes smoothly for you. Please keep us updated!

Is Dr Rhee good? Im having such a hard decision on who to go to. I was recommended to go to him. Also, other recommendations of doctors to perform rhinoplasty. I dont see a lot of reviews about him. Do you have any before and after pictures?

I've researched all of the MD's in the area who do septoplastys and rhinoplastys. Dr Rhee is the best. By far. I had a consultation with one doctor after I got in an accident then set up another appointment with someone who has a great reputation in Milwaukee, then had a third consultation with Rhee and wouldn't trust anyone but him.

I ended up going to Dr. Rhee for a consultation. I can say I trusted him the most out of many doctors that I had consultations with in the past. I didn't go through with it yet because there was not much of a difference at all. I liked him the best though because unlike all the other ones, he seemed more trustworthy and not trying to "tell me something that I wanted to hear." Mine is all cosmetic surgery. I am still on the search. Did you have any other ones that you liked? Did you get yours done since?

I can say Dr Rhee was absolutely amazing also with answering ALL questions and taking his time. He is definitely a doctor that knows what he is talking about. I just wished there was more that could be done because I would go to him right away.

Lovely lobes.

So 7 years ago I gauged my ears. Should've listened to my Mother and not done it! Because now, 7 years later, I decided to get them fixed. I was thinking of doing it with my septorhinoplasty in March but the price of doing it under anesthesia is 2x as much! So I decided to do it in the clinic with no anesthesia except the local of course. My same surgeon, Dr. Rhee, is doing it. I can't wait to schedule the procedure and have cute little earlobes again. I've longed to wear ear rings for so long. I can't wait!
