Revision Surgery, Traveled from New York City!

Surah dua

I am in love with my self again! I had lost all hope! If you want a human with a heart first not just a doctor with tools then you have found him! He is absolutely an angel on earth, I swear! I had a botched nose job done from a self proclaimed best surgeon in New York City on Madison ave, he has 5 star rating on real self, which was all fake! My surgery was expansive and I thought If I was paying so much he had to know what he was doing. The day my cast came off I knew something was wrong, my nose looked crooked, he made it supper short and upturned, My columella was hanging, I had a notch in one of my alar rims, he left me with a open roof deformity, I cried all the way from his clinic home. I came home and started searching for doctors to fix the mess he had created, I remember coming across Dr. Arafat’s Instagram, I got in touch and he immediately responded with a video call. I fell into deep depression for many months after, I lost many of my precious 20’s in this. I work in the fashion industry in New York City and having a ruined nose job brought my self esteem really low. Dr. Arafat gave me therapy for almost 4 years, he would always calm me down and send me words of hope and that everything would be okay, we would be able to fix it. I was so scared after my first experience to go for a revision. I went to all the top 5 rated revision surgeons in the US from Chicago to LA but did not feel safe in their hands. They spoke the same language my first doctor did and it was concerning the over confidence they carried, they would give me 5 min of their time, I wasn’t going under the knife with someone who couldn’t emphasize with me! I was worried about a surgery in Pakistan, that’s the reason I didn’t go the first time! But finally after 4 years I flew out to Pakistan and then Lahore to meet Dr. Arafat. The hotel he recommended for my stay during my recovery was amazing, better then hotels in the US. He wasn’t just amazing on paper but in person too! Him and his entire team took care of me like family, he understood what I had been through for years, showed empathy and care. Not only did he give me a nose I’m happy with and life back, he also restored my faith that genuine doctors still exist in the world. Would you believe if I said I didn’t get a single bruise? My skin never turn red or blue, My first doc had left me with a open roof deformity, Dr. Arafat had to even perform Osteotomies, despite that I never got any bruising, I was shocked during my recovery! God has literally blessed magic in his hands, his work is impeccable! If you are looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon for primary or revision you are lucky you came across him. I wish I had the honor of having him for my primary but I’m glad I found him the second time, otherwise I know people who have had 5 surgeries before they are as lucky as I was with Dr. Arafat! Seriously consider Dr. Arafat you won’t regret it, take it from someone who probably went to 25 revision surgeons and read every article on real self!

I’ll send pictures to anyone that wants to see, I’m just not comfortable uploading them to a public form! Everyone’s journey is different, I would say rely on Allah first and then your surgeon, they are humans just like us!
