Not what I expected

I finally decided to take the plunge and undergo a rhinoplasty for my biggest insecurity. The surgery itself and recovery was not bad at all! However, I am not pleased with my results. I'm about 8 months post op and I'm realizing I'm going to have to deal with my unfortunate results. I went in to get a bump shaved down, refine and slightly lift my tip. My bump was shaved down and that was about it. My nose from the front looks so big! The space in between my nostrils now points down and there's an obvious shadow that makes my nose look curved. I'm now embarrassed to take pictures from the front. My tip also sticks out too much and my tip was not lifted whatsoever. Instead, it looks more pointed down and looks pointy. I'd be weary about his Instagram videos because he does a good job of showing post op results from the side and not the front. Albeit my side looks pretty good but from the front it looks terrible. I wish I had done more research and met with my doctors before settling. Don't risk getting a good side profile for a big front nose view.

Hi everyone! So sorry I haven’t responded to any comments or posted more pics! I didn’t really go back on RealSelf after I posted my review. It has been one year and I will post pictures later tonight. I felt dr z was very arrogant and even with our in person consult he was very short and seemed as though this was just another cake walk for him. However, it’s been one year and my results are not what I expected. The tip of my nose is what I dislike the most and there’s also very noticeable shadowing on the right side of my nose. Thank you all for being patient! Ask any questions and I’ll respond to them and I’ll post pictures tonight

Thank you for posting your pics. I also went to Dr. Zoumalan for my rhinoplasty and I am very unhappy with my outcome.

I'm so sorry to hear that:( his Instagram is very deceiving and is where most people find him I think

Can I ask why you’re unhappy? What went wrong? I meet with him next month.

He didn't shave down the dorsal bump enough, my columella still hangs down from the front, and my tip is over projected. And like Medyp95's pics, there are terrible shadows that run down the sides of my nose, showing a curvy/wavy/ bumpy bridge.

I’m considering him. I plan on flying all the way fro Nova Scotia! Could you please post photos?

Your nose still looks better than before... But I get your dismay. You pay 10k you want that shit to be perfect. Is he gonna fix it for you?

Your nose looks beautiful and natural, you shouldn't touch it again. But I understand it probably wasn't what you were envisioning.

It looks as if you have a parenthesis tip deformity, where the lower lateral cartillages should be repositioned to improve them.
