Bad, bad, nose job with Dr Torgerson

Bad Rhino

He didn’t understand what I didn’t like about it. I think that’s what makes him a worst doctor. To not acknowledge that you did a bad job and to gaslight the patient.

Living with an outcome like this isn’t just physical. It has affected how I feel about myself, and avoiding photos in certain angles. It has required emotional resilience, time, and ongoing effort to cope with something I never anticipated when I made the decision to have the procedure.

I’m sharing this not to seek sympathy or create conflict, but to be transparent about my experience and to acknowledge how deeply it has affected me. It’s also important to say that cosmetic procedures are not minor decisions, and outcomes—especially negative ones—can carry lasting consequences.

I miss my symmetrical nose that had a thin bridge more than anything.

Bad Bad Nose Job with Dr Torgerson

Ruined my face with a very crooked rhinoplasty. He tried to fix it with a second surgery and didn’t even touch my area of concern. One side of my nose is extremely convexe the other is concave so much so that my glasses don’t sit on my face straight no matter how much I play with the nose pads. He told me I’m just being picky and that I just have issues within myself I need to deal with. :s. Look at my photos :,(. It’s years later and my heart still hurts from going with this doctor. He is very nice but is not good with symmetrical work.

Mine is crooked , contracted, deformed too! Wow
Sorry for your result. Are you considering a revision with another surgeon?
So sorry just read this now this is with his revision

Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you find some support in the community.

I would definitely look for a good revision specialist. It's appalling that your doctor doesn't see where his work went wrong. Shame on him! You have every right to be upset but you'll get through it! Xx
WoW thanks! Just reading these now
