Failed Primary, Looking for Revision.

ORIGINAL POST

Failed Primary, Looking for Revision.

I had my primary rhinoplasty 4 months ago, and it was a complete botched job. I don't feel that confident talking about it as I developed severe PTSD after the experience. All in all, it left me with the following issues: inverted V deformity, severe septal deviation, Pollybeak, dorsum irregularities, over shortened nostrils, droopy tip and obviously, difficulties breathing. As everyone else who has had a similar experience to mine, I am now feeling incredibly depressed, every day is a struggle.
I have so far come across the following surgeons which I am willing to consult, some of them are completely economically unreachable for me:
Richard Davis: very talented, in the US, no internet consultations, very pricey $20.000 - 25,000
Lucian Ion: now only works in collaboration, which scares me as you never know who actually ends up doing the surgery. Price: £16,000
Pietro Palma: Milan. His work seems good but slightly inconsistent, he seems very proud and slightly self-absorbed. €12,000
Duron: Supposedly very talented with reconstructions, however, no reviews can be found online, weird...price €13,000
Robotti: supposedly very good and extremely professional, his work looks functional but not particularly tasteful.
I am attaching some photos for you to see my nose currently.
Lots of love fellow botchies, be strong <3 lol

I’m so sorry for the things you’ve gone through. There needs to be medical malpractice laws in place to protect us patients. The amount of people who are getting harmed is so sad. Something needs to change. I respect your strength to speak up and reach out!! I too am considering dr Davis- let me know what you find out!!
Thank you, I appreciate your message ^ ^ at the moment Richard Davis is completely unreachable for me from an economic viewpoint, although if I had the means to afford it he would be my first choice. X
Unfortunately I live in the UK and there hardly is any good surgeon around here :(
No only ion and he literally charges an arm and a leg and like it's said who going to be doing the surgery him or the other bloke .....
I have had two revisions already and I am still not happy. All these drs that day they will make it look better are full of [RS bleep]. If i could go back in time I wouldn’t have touched my nose at all. Good luck with finding a dr for a revision.
Your nose has literally got same problems as mine
They all make this type of nose the incompetent ones, they botch us all the same
Did you have a hump removal by any chance .those particular ones are caused when the take the hump out and dnt put proper support in place
I’m really sorry. I had a really badly botched primary. So bad that the stress of it led to me getting cancer. I can’t believe these surgeons get away with it. Mine ruined my life...and if I don’t beat the cancer (already metastatic) will be the cause of my death. Still looking for a revision surgeon but my nose is in really bad shape. And I have to wait til I’m done with treatment to have it fixed. I’m really sorry this happened to you. No one deserves this.
Im so sorry about your situation :( sending you so much love, support, and well wishes.
I'm so sorry.
I’m sorry this has happened to you. It’s crazy how many people are in these situations. I’m dealing with a messed up result too. Dealing with the emotions of it all and finding revisions that seem trustworthy is very frustrating. Im really considering ion but that joint surgery business has me wondering about who would actually do it too. Davis I’ve read some mixed reviews about. Im wishing us all the best of luck with fixing our problems! Inbox me anytime you might wanna talk.
