Wonderful Surgeon
I want to start by saying the decision to get a septorhinoplasty and otoplasty was not a light one. In fact, I spent around 2.5 years having consults all over the U.S. I met with surgeons who were certainly smart and I’m sure would have done good jobs in most cases, but none of them gave me the feeling Dr. Kim did. I knew within minutes of our consult I would be choosing her and paid my surgery deposit the same day.
It was not rushed and personalized to my needs and I could tell she was not only extremely intelligent, but thorough and personal, too. She explained everything from the functional and cosmetic aspects of the surgery to the measurements of my ears (something no other surgeon did). More importantly, she picked up on my slight body dysmorphia from years of being bullied and helped put into perspective that I didn’t need as drastic of a change as I thought, what was realistic for my anatomy and that the healing process would be a roller coaster.
Without her preparing me properly, I think I would’ve really struggled in the first few weeks. If you’ve watched Instagram cast off videos, you might think that when you get your cast off you’ll be in love with your new nose—and you might! But you might also feel a bit unrecognizable or even dislike your immediate results due to swelling (it is trauma to your face, after all)!
I fell into the latter camp. Due to how well Dr. Kim prepared me I did not panic. My nose has gone down considerably and continues to get more defined every day. People have not noticed I got a nose job, which is a good thing. When I do tell people they tell me how natural it looks which is really a testament to Dr. Kim. I still have quite awhile to go and I can tell I have a lot of swelling still, but it’s looking better every day. We are lucky to have Dr. Kim in Ohio. You don’t need to travel to California for a top notch surgeon, take it from me.
