Will you be getting a revision at any point?

Do you have your operative notes? I am so sorry. Someone did this to me, AND my nose collapsed because he purposefully did not work on the entire nose. Ask if your nasal cartilages were rotated, get your operative notes, and then get your nasal tip cartilages reshaped. Honestly, it looks like your nose collapsed (mine has!). Are you breathing okay? I'm so sorry.

Sadly, my nose is worse than ever, 3 years after Dr C operated. It's as if he forgot to fix the front t and only fixed my profile..wide nose, big ball grafted in it. Nightmare.

Hi there, hope your revision search is coming along well! I have one more question-- when you spoke with Dr C, did he present any options for fixing the visible graft? Thanks!

No, he did not.

I am devastated to be going through the exact same thing. I am so miserable coming from an OK but not perfect nose to the embarrassment I have now. Can you elaborate on what was recommended in the consultations you had? Did you end up having revision surgery? It would be very helpful to hear what can be done, or what was done, to fix this. Thank you.

Did you also have surgery with Dr. Constantian? Or just a similar outcome?

thank you for sharing your story! Was the ball there in the beginning or did it end up that way over time?

"It's as if he forgot to fix the front t and only fixed my profile." That was my exact impression upon viewing his gallery. It looks like he routinely addresses profile and 3/4 issues but leaves the front exactly the same or worse than he found it. How odd. It is as if he doesn't treat the nose as a 3D object.

Hi there! I'm surprised to see your review. I had only heard great things about Constantian. Could you put up some before photos for comparison? It's hard to tell how much was changed without a reference point. Was the tip graft your own tissue or an implant?

If you were surprised at my review based on only hearing good things about the doc, imagine my surprise at my results based on the fact that I chose him based on all those good things I heard too. End result photos are all that matters.

Rhinoplasty is full of surprises and no doctor or patient is immune to a bad surgery, unfortunately. Nothing surprises me anymore. There's also many reasons why you may hear only good things about surgeons.

Hi! I couldn't have said it better myself. I completely agree with you...there is nothing worse than finding out your new nose is worse off than the one you had before. I too had many issues with my rhinoplasty and I'm very disappointed... even with the continuing issues. I'm so sorry that it wasn't what you wanted but if revision rhinoplasty will get you where you want to go then its worth it. Again like your title says choose your doctor wisely and I completely agree. I wouldn't worry that a second would be a problem as long as you get a good doctor can you both are on the same page about the outcome you will be fine. There are others that share your story and I'm here for support if you need it :-)
