2nd Rhinoplasty Revision
So I had my 1st rhinoplasty about 3 yrs ago in 2018 or around then unfortunately I failed to really research for a plastic surgeon, And instead of looking far and wide I went with some near my home. What a mistake Just because they are a plastic surgeon and because their Location is very close and convenient to your home does not mean you should go with them. Anyway The first rhinoplasty I found was near me in Syracuse NY. I thought he would be old due to hi professional mannerism. He had a stick up his butt when I met him. That should've told me a lot anyway my 1st rhinoplasty was with him (Dr. Kim Sang)...nothing bout my visit with him was outstanding or worth noting EXCEPT that he didn't even take down the bridge hump that I paid for and wanted most gone. So many months after m 1st surg I complained to him about the hump still being there and he said he would redo (do a revision) it for free. Well lo and behold after the 2nd surgery the only thing he did what was to make the bridge hump into two bumps instead of one and the Tip of my nose was even more bulbous it seemed and under the tip (columella) ithere was scar tissue I believe that's what it was that hung down. Maybe not apparent to most but obvious to me (The most important person to please). Anyway I knew already just months after having the 2nd surgery that I wanted another one because I was disgusted with Dr. Sang Kim's plastic surgery skills. And also that he had used his poor rhino plastic surg skills on me. Anyway I had no idea what to do because I didn't wanna go through the same mistake again, so I waited a couple years but kept looking for a surgeon. Eventually this year in 2021 I found a plastic surgeon in Baltimore Md (6 hrs frm my home) who had great reviews and many great reviews. In fact nothing but great reviews. Because he had not one bad rhinoplasty review, I felt he was the surgeon I was looking for. So I decided to give his office a call for a consultation. Anyways I went and met with him and was excited to get the ball rolling. His office was very good working around my time sched esp since I was coming from out of town. His scheduler Karen is the best she gave me detailed info about where it would be done and when also told me me what I would need to do to prep.for the surg She left no stone unturned knowing that I couldn't come right back in because I was so far. Her and Dr Ronald Schuster were very accommodating in that if I needed any question no matter how big or small answered I could call or email And they would get back to me as soon as possible. Fortunately for me for some reason I felt very secure in who I chose Plus I felt all my questions had been answered in the office therefore I did not feel the need to call or email. Anyway the day of the surgery for some reason I felt peace and very comfortable going into it and till no question except to remember to ask the doctor when I could start working out again. I remember closing my eyes while the anesthesiologist was administering the Sedtive (The doctors whole team was very comforting and reassuring, I was even told by one of the nurses that everyone in that hospital goes to Dr. Schuster for whatever they needed Or wanted done as far as plastic surgery wiise) and then waking up and asking if he the dr was going to get started and the nurse telling me he was done with the surgery already.. Boy was I happy. Anyway I have to tell you after the last surgery I didn't feel any pain at all, none, in the hump/bridge area While I was recovering, but this time I did feel pain Not much pain at all but I just knew that something had been done to that area. Also when I felt the pain I was nervous that the bump was growing back. Anyways 9 days after The surgery I went back I n for my first postop and to have the cast removed off my nose. Seeing it for the 1st time after Dr Schusters surg. I was so surprised at how much better (even though it was very swollen) that my nose looked. The hump was gone and finally after two prior surgeries I had a doctor that knew what he was doing and that wanted to please me (by doing what I requested and wanted) and not his ego! Today I'm in my 4th week of healing and the swelling in my nose has gone down even more with the massage therapy Dr Schuster has me applying to my new nose since my 2nd post op appt this past week on Tuesday. I had so much confidence in this Dr for my 2nd revision rhino and there was a reason why... Dr. Schuster certainly is the best Rhinoplasty Doctor! Wish I had researched and looked out of my area for a plastic surgeon the very firs time then I would not have had to go through this three times. . Trust me if you're looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon and you want it to be your first and your last rhinoplasty surgery then go with Dr. Ronald Schuster in Maryland. You do not want to go through this more than once!!... and Not because it's painful because a rhinoplasty is not that painful at all but Because 1st off you don't want to shell out more money for another surg. and 2nd when you look in the mirror after having your 1st rhinoplasty you want to feel good about yourself and not depressed every time you look in the mirror. And 3rd You don't want to lose your faith/confidence in doctors. And trust me having a surgery that involves you looking at your face every day will cause you to lose faith and trust in doctors if they are lacking in skills to give you the nose and the outcome you desire. Especially if it looks like you wasted your money for a Rhinoplasty that looks worse than before you had one. So whether it's your first rhinoplasty or a revision I recommend you look up Dr. Ronald Schuster in Luthervlle, Maryland.
