4 months post-op and I have gained immeasurably in confidence

Revision Rhinplasty by Dr. Palma

WORTH IT
After an unsuccessful surgery almost 15 years ago and then several small sporting accidents, I had finally decided to repair my nose. I had been putting this off during those years, in part because I had not come across a surgeon who I felt understood my needs and most importantly, the importance of the structure and physiology of the nose, and how it should “fit” with the rest of facial features.

On meeting with Dr. Palma, he calmly studied my case and identified the problem areas, broken down into sections or areas that needed work, with each one then undergoing careful consideration to come up with the overall strategy to produce the final result. This level of detail and process is something that I had not come across before and generated much more confidence in me to choose him as my surgeon.

I’m glad to say that the operation was a success, each area was addressed and repaired, with the parts coming together to produce the whole. The pre-operative instructions and expectations were clear and we were both on the “same page” when it came to what he was going to do. The stay at the clinic was extremely comfortable and I felt well taken care of. Post-operative pain was essentially non-existent and once the bandaging was removed I was able to resume normal life with some limitations regarding sun exposure and physical activity.

Throughout the entire process I felt assured in Dr. Palma. He worked methodically and carefully, without rushing in any aspect. He is clearly a gifted doctor and a very good human being. We are now four months post-procedure and I have gained immeasurably in confidence. The aesthetic and symmetrical aspects of my nose have improved enormously, as well as the overall structure. The problems of the past seem a world away. Thank you Dr. Palma and your team, for your professionalism, care and skill in helping me through this difficult journey.
