I paid him to do the exact opposite of what we discussed in our consultations

It has taken nearly four years for me to write this review. I wanted to wait until I was in a better place. Basically, I paid Dr. DeLozier $7k to do the exact opposite of what we discussed in our consultations, and on top of that, made it to where I could not breath out of my right nostril.

In our initial consult, I provided a wish image. I used Photoshop & was very, very conservative with my adjustments (example image provided). I was specific. I wanted a rhinoplasty with turbinate reduction & the width of my nose reduced. One of the things I said to him in the two consultations we had was this: "I don't mind the hook on (the bridge) of my nose, I am more concerned with the width & length of the tip." THAT is when he should have told me that it was not in his skill set because he ONLY performs closed rhinoplasties. There is a huge difference between a closed & open rhinoplasty. At the time, I did not know the difference. He came so highly recommended that I simply trusted him. I have since read many reviews & what he did to me is common. He should have taken one look at my nose and told me that what I wanted was NOT something that could be achieved in a closed rhinoplasty. He could have referred me to another surgeon. But he assured me it was a straightforward & easy fix.

In the end, he did nothing but attempt to reduce the hook on the bridge of my nose, the one thing I cared the least about). In doing so, he made the upper bridge of my nose thinner, which made the width & tip appear even more bulbous than before. My old hooked nose was replaced with a new, less attractive hooked nose. I can honestly say my nose looked better before.

What's more, shortly after surgery the inside of my right nostril caved in & I was unable to breath properly. Apparently I am not the only one that he did this to. As other comments I've read have stated, he will refer you to his ENT "buddy" & that is all. There is no recourse & I lived this way until 2020 when I was finally able to afford to fix his work.

In the end, I felt like I was simply a dollar sign. I won't even touch on how hard it was for me to save up for this surgery or how excited I was to finally be able to get it. I won't touch on how this experience sent me into depression. He will have negative reviews deleted, but until he retires I will not stop posting my review or telling people to avoid him. He may be great at breast augmentations, but DO NOT let him perform surgery on your face.
