Very Satisfied Patient - Seattle, WA

I had a rhinoplasty in 1968 and the doctor at the time removed too much cartilage. I ended up with a small, pinched nose that eventually collapsed on one side. I didn't realize a revision was possible until recently and I interviewed 3 plastic surgeons. The third visit was with Dr. Michael Nuara and I immediately sensed his sincerity and honesty. He and his associate, Dr. Craig Murikami, were the only ones who identified my deviated septum (even though Dr.in visit #2 was also an ENT). They also identified I had significant Ptosis(eyelids). I wanted the bags under my eyes to disappear and fuller cheeks. All the doctors agreed I had a challenging case for the revision because I didn't have enough cartilage left. I ended up having the revision, a brow lift, lower lids, more fat put in my face, & ptosis. I also had a full face laser. Medicare covered the deviated septum (not revision) and ptosis and I don't have a value on that. I couldn't be more pleased with my results! And every step of the way, I felt respected and cared for and important, not just from Dr. Nuara but the office staff as well. I don't have photos yet because I fell in the garage a few days ago and am still healing from that.
