Be Cautious.

I had a rhinoplasty with Prof Mark Ashton in 2019. It was a primary rhinoplasty, open technique. Approx 2 years later my columella started to droop quite an extensively, I had a revision completed by Prof. Ashton in 2022 (to revise the columella). This failed and my columella continued to droop. I started to notice difficulty breathing as well as congestion and a runny nose every morning. When I noticed these changes after approx. 1.5 years, I was told by his nurse that he could no longer help me and I had to go see a specialist. I saw an ENT, who advised me I had to undergo a third procedure at an extensive expense to revise my nose internally and externally. As a newly graduated nurse and leading up to my wedding, this absolutely crushed me. I underwent a full nasal reconstruction on the 14th of July 2025. My surgery had complications due to the work that was previously completed - that being destroyed nasal tissue, as well as a fracture on the right hand side of my nose. I did not have any injuries pre, post or during my treatment with Prof Ashton, I had to have grafting completed to stabilise my nose. I can breathe better now, however it will be a long recovery. Please think twice before having a rhinoplasty here. I had severe depression and insecurities for the last 6 years, I would struggle to get out of bed most days, and would cry at the thought of being in photos.
