Collapsed and Disfigured Nose

Thriving862680
Had a rhinoplasty surgery with van der Weij at Boerhaave, it was supposed to be done with the preservation technique, that's the only reason I allowed a closed surgery. There were already loads of red flags but afterwards it became so bad. When I thought I had an infection I had to contact them loads and it took a week before the surgeon got back to me, and I still couldn't be seen. After a few months the open roof became visible and I was doubting if it was done with the preservation technique, which later turned out it wasn't.. Over the years multiple deformities showed up, because of the open roof the left nasal bone collapsed and I got an inverted V causing breathing issues, pinched and bifid tip with a lot of cartilage bumps and dents causing discoloration, my thin skin became super thin because it wasn't taken into account, because of that some revision surgeons already rejected me because dissecting it would be super hard and there is risk of necrosis. Van der Weij also teared the skin on my tip but never admitted to it. Now I'm left with a disfigured nose that can't breathe and the surgeon never saw anything wrong and didn't wanted to help me, was just laughing when I complained about the deformities. This was the worst experience of my life and it's a living hell, I get lightheaded and tired so quick because of the mouth breathing.. Please be careful with yourself 3
