Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Returning to the clinic
I'm in a deeply down mood.
The left nostrils seems to restrict insted of enlarging ,but surprisingly it's the only one I can breathe from.
I argued with the clinic,as nor I am happy with the nose aesthetic nor I can properly breathe ,which I could do BEFORE surgery.
They said it's not their fault,and said I need to see a nose specialist (I can't spell the name properly).
Then they called me back and told me to go there this Sunday,after I sent them even more pictures.
I already had a doctor who told me that or the operation hasn't been performed in the right way,or that the result messed up.
Whatever.
Another 4 hours trip (and return) just before Christmas... I'm exhausted I shouldn't have had this op done.
Now,first of all I want to "fix" the aesthetic part,both with fillers or steroid shots ,then on Monday I will see the nose specialist for the breathing part.
There is no way I'm gonna let this surgeons operate my nose again! No freaking way. And if I do have a deviated septum (which is almost confirmed) I will have surgery here in Italy,in an hospital.
I honestly hope with all myself that there is just an issue with the turbinates,at least I don't have to have my nose broke again but I could consider laser treatments.
As for now,I'm hooked on nasal decongestant spray,but...how long before my nose get used to it and it stops working? I'm currently using ActiFed,as corticosteroid-based spray Flixonase (which is supposed to be one of the strongest) doesn't work.
Think really well before you have your nose touched,and be selective with surgeons. Ask. Ask. Ask. Ask more than anything,ask any "what if after surgery" that concerns you. But,again,use fillers instead of invasive surgery if you can. Medicine evolves,who nose maybe one day rhinoplasty will be more easy to perform and the post-op less stressful to deal with...
I'm sadder than before I had my nose job.

Problem breathing by right nostril
....I don't know if someone's still interested in my story,but I'll keep posting on here... Since I feel like venting!
So,almost two months have passed and NO improvement is seen .
-Functional problem: the right nostrils (larger one) keeps clogging so I'm stuck on ActiFed nasal decongestant spray.
-Into the nostrils,right across the septum you can feel two small "pimple-like" things,one per side,they are hard at touch and round as a pimple.
-Left nostril is dramatically different from the right one. And by left side nose is still sooooo upturned compared to te right side.
-Tip is HUGE. I've never ever seen such an huge nose tip. Not even the bulbous ones...
-Skin of the left nostrils is WAY thicker
-No scar improvement
The surgeon still hasn't replied to me. What can I do?
