It's been nearly 3 years and my scar from Dr. Horndeski never went away. It was very noticeable. I had two BIG dents on either side of my nose bc he did not sew me up properly. I had to get a revision lip lift to undo the damage.

I am updating this review that my post surgery results are NOT good. I have VERY BAD scars on both sides of my nose which resulted from poor stitching post surgery. I am going back to the clinic for a revision but feeling very nervous that it will be even more botched.

I'm healing pretty fast, the only thing that's still swollen is my nose!

How are you?
How is your incision healing? Did you have any difficulty to remove the stitch ? Are you happy with your result at this point?
