- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

After 2 Years - Final Results Looks Good!
I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Burak Alhan, and I wanted to write this review to share my strange story. At first I was frustrated after the procedure, I had a retracted nostril. (See Image). It was very obvious, and when I went home after I had a hard time dealing with it. I went to one of my best friends wedding and people were like what happened!?! I felt like I had to hide my face. I kept asking the doctor why he didn't make sure the left side was even during the surgery, or why there wasn't extra cartilage placed on that side to make it look normal, and his response was that he had rebuilt the entire interior of the nose and made both sides even on the inside. I didn't believe him because on the outside it didn't look like it at all. I seriously thought I was going to need a revision.
Fast forward to two years later, I had a laser treatment on my skin. I have no idea how the laser worked to soften the internal scarring, but somehow it did and it reduced the overall bulbousness of my nose and now the nostril looks normal again. Finally! It made me realize that the doctor had in fact made my nose even during the surgery, he did his job the right way, but it was my scar tissue that somehow created the retraction on the nostril. Now that the scar tissue is softened, my nose looks good and I am happy with the final results! I would recommend this doctor, and also recommend that you give yourself time to see final results.
