Very nervous

I didn't have an issue with the appearance of my nose before surgery, i actually really liked my nose. all I wanted was my deviated septum straightened out and my breathing problems fixed. He convinced me to do the rhinoplasty because he "couldn't guarantee my nostrils to be equal with just a Septoplasty." After I paid for the rhino, he then told me he couldn't guarantee my nostrils to be the same size even tho that's why i booked the rhino in the first place.. now I'm left with this mess:(  when i agreed to the rhino, we agreed to fix the small bump in my bridge that you can't see but can feel (it's still there), make the tip less square/bulbous (it is less square but still is bulbous and lacks definition) and even out my nostrils. my nostrils still are uneven but larger. And now it looks pushed in from the side instead of rounding out from the tip at the columella. It no longer has definition on the bridge or turns up at the tip. One nostril is much wider than the other. The bulb on one side is lower than the other. I still can't breathe. My scars are not fading at all. The scar is huge and uneven. On the inside, the cartilage is detached from the skin. I think cartilage is exposed because it hurts most of the time.  Less than a week after surgery, my nose kept bleeding a lot so I knew there was an issue. I kept calling about it because my discharge papers said if that happened to call right away. I called 5 times and they kept saying they'd have someone call me back, but they never did. On my follow up FaceTime I said how my cartilage is detached from my skin. They said that wasn't possible and dismissed the issue.  I'm really sad that I paid $20,000 for this. I could have paid half for much better results elsewhere. This entire experience has been bad from the moment I made the consultation. I really regret this and I know they won't fix it because they don't offer revision. Please do your research before booking. I can't afford to fix this so now I just have to live with it, which wouldn't be so terrible if my nose didn't constantly hurt from the detachment on the inside. I feel so ugly I miss my old nose :(

I have a deviated septum and can’t breathe out of my nose.

I visited Dr. Kassir’s office to make a payment for my surgery and I wanted to make an update. I previously made a somewhat poor review about my doubts and concerns, which unfortunately I am unable to delete from RealSelf. My initial doubts really only had to do with the office and not the Doctor himself, which, nonetheless, still made me nervous. Dr. Kassir seems to be the best at what he does and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my face. He is triple board certified and has a keen eye for beauty. My experience with the office today was totally different from the virtual consultation. In fact, I am extremely happy with how things went today . . .
I showed up to the office to make a payment without calling first. Everyone in the office was so accommodating. I was expecting to just make a payment and be on my way. Instead, they allowed me to complete my pre-op while I was there rather than making me come again before my surgery. Wow - amazing.
While completing paperwork, Natasha answered ALL the questions I had. She is very knowledgeable and addressed my every concern. I may have misinterpreted her fast and blunt answers as condescending when I first spoke to her months ago. I tend to over-analyze when I’m nervous. She is actually really kind, understanding, and patient. I asked probably a hundred questions, even repeating some of the same questions multiple times because I’m forgetful. She listened carefully and answered thoroughly. I felt important and understood, not like just a number.
Regarding some of my concerns with my initial review: I realized that the reason why I did not receive a confirmation/receipt was neither my fault nor theirs, as it was a misunderstanding. Part of my first payment was wired from a friend’s bank account, so they didn’t know it was mine. As for today, I was emailed a receipt as well as thorough details on all my procedures.
Another thing I realized during my visit was how high in demand Kassir is! There were two different phones ringing off the hook the whole time I was there. They’re actually really organized for how busy they are. This would explain the delayed consultations some people have experienced, but they tell you about it beforehand anyways. The volume of prospective patients also explains the strict no-refund policy because their schedules are so tight and time is valuable.
Anyways, after completing the payment and paperwork, I was able to meet Dr. Kassir - which I really appreciated. He was very sweet, calm, and confident - which made me feel at ease. I was a bit worried that I may be getting too much done, but he assured me everything will be okay and that he’s an expert.
Dr. Kassir was very reassuring without being pushy. He assessed my tonsils since i wanted laser reduction and they were hard to see on facetime. He stated that I would better benefit from a tonsillectomy whether he or another ENT would do it, which was totally up to me. I said I would love for him to do it while i was already under, but that I was nervous about that recovery. He assured me everything will go smoothly and that I may even stay in NJ for as long as I’d like so that he could check on me.
Dr. Kassir is a triple board certified ENT who is very experienced and well-known. I trust that my face is in the best hands possible. Dr. Kassir has been the doctor I wanted to do my surgery for years and I’m sad that I ever had any doubts. Even then, I still wanted to see him because he’s the only doctor capable to do all the things I want done. I’m so happy about how today went with Dr. Kassir’s office. Now that my concerns have been resolved, I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am for my surgery. I know that my face is in the best hands! March can’t come fast enough!!
