The Best There is
I had been waiting my whole life for a rhinoplasty and finally got one in 2019. Unfortunately even after what I felt was extensive research & finding a doctor in Newport beach, orange county that I loved the before and after pics from his other clients, I had been unhappy with results & felt stuck with a nose worse than my original nose. I was so skeptical to go through with another rhinoplasty considering the cost financially and emotionally, but after months, I kept going back to look at the incredible results from Dr. W. Portuese on his website and Instagram. Finally, I sent in photos for a 3D imaging and when I was sent back the results from what he projected he could make my nose look like, I teared up. I loved how my nose looked and I was obsessed and hopeful that he could perform a surgery to make my nose look pretty and fit with my face. I then had a virtual consult with him as he is located in seattle and I am in socal and I immediately felt confident that this was the surgeon that was going to give me the nose I have always dreamed of. I was nervous though because I had felt this before and been let down, but his work speaks for itself.
I had my revision rhinoplasty with him in august 2021 and the day before was only the first time I met him in person. I felt that he truly listened to all the aesthetics concerns I had about my nose and although it sounds superficial, I was so insecure about my nose and never took pictures or allowed people to look at me from the side due to a huge bump and a long droopy hook nose that I had been made fun of for, some people even referred to it as a “beak.”
He shaved down the bump on the side, lifted the tip a little, and shaped it perfectly to fit with my face and I am beyond incredibly pleased with the results. My nose fits perfectly with my face and it looks like the nose I was meant to have & no one can tell I got it done, TWICE!. I also added a chin implant & feel that it makes my side profile look nice. Dr. Portuese is very skilled & I only wish I had gone to him first. The recovery was smooth and not painful compared to my first surgery when I was throwing up the next morning and my pain and bruising was minimal compared to the first surgery when I looked like I got hit by a bus. He gives you a cute little cast to keep over your nose until your follow up. The staff was incredible and very friendly, accommodating and always answered my questions and made me feel comfortable. Words cannot describe how truly grateful I am for Dr. P. 2.5 years later I still love my nose & have found my confidence again and love taking pictures. My new nose makes me look as happy as i feel. You have truly changed my life and all your patients are so lucky to have you.!
