Would Recommend Dr. Rival

ORIGINAL POST

Would Recommend

Overall, I would 100% recommend Dr. Rival to a friend. His expectations were realistic and he does not promise what he does not believe is achievable, which I found very important when looking for a doctor. My front profile is much more symmetrical now and the bump on my nose is also gone. My nose definitely looks better and I am happy. It doesn’t even look like I got work done.

As I said, overall, I like my nose, it looks natural, and I think Dr. Rival did a good job. It’s not perfect and there are aspects of it that are not exactly what I was hoping for but I am not upset over them nor do I think it looks bad. But, keep in mind, rhinoplasty will almost never give you the exact outcome you have in your mind AND I had my procedure about a month ago so I have yet to really see the final result. 

After years of researching there are only 2 Toronto doctors I’d consider for rhinoplasty, one of them being Dr. Rival and I have no regrets choosing him nor do I have any regrets regarding the procedure!

UPDATED FROM willowdtk

3 month update

Im just around the 3 month mark of rhinoplasty, my nose still does look better but my tip looks more curved downward than before... noses heal differently so this could still be swelling but my nose is just okay. It’s not botched or bad but it’s definitely not beautiful or super defined at any part of it. I’m happy enough with it that I wouldn’t spend the money to get my nose re-done but if i had endless money and time, I probably would consider revision in the future.
Dr.Rival made my front profile straighter than I expected but the side profile is less nice than I expected. So there’s definitely pros and cons. Overall I’d still say he’s not a bad choice, he’s realistic and my nose still looks natural and better than before. I’m just not going to go out of my way to picture my side profile lol!
