WORTH IT$15,000
Hi everyone. So I'm about 19 days post opp. My cast came off only a few days ago and I'm feeling great already. I've not felt this confident in my life ever. There's still a lot of swelling but there's already so much improvement!
My social life has improved already lol. I'm so grateful to Dr.Marcells for making this possible.
For anyone considering this procedure, I highly recommend Dr.Marcells.

So I'm on day 3 post opp and I feel much better than I expected. I don't feel any pain and there's minimum bruising. The only discomfort is the blocked nose and having to breath through mouth all the time.
The surgery itself went smoothly I think. The nurse was very nice and caring and Dr.Marcells came in to see me before the surgery and we went through what I was hoping to achieve from the procedure.
I received a call from one of Dr.Marcells staff to check how I was going the day after the procedure.
I can already see the difference in the shape of my nose and so far I'm feeling very positive about the whole experience :)

Some before and after pics would be good, even if you black your eyes out to avoid being identified. Thanks

Hi everyone. I have a rhinoplasty surgery booked...
Zima3142June 5, 2015
Hi everyone.
I have a rhinoplasty surgery booked in for the 18th of this month with Dr. Marcells. He is known as the master of rhinoplasty but I have yet to find out.
I've wanted this for around 5 years now. The more time went past, the more self conscious I became about my nose. It started to affect me in so many aspects of my life including studies, relationship and social life. Last year, I got to a point where I made up my mind about doing something about it. I left studies and started saving up for it. It's been a slow process but I'm finally there.
I chose Dr.Marcells because he is known for his expertise in primary as well as revision rhinoplasty and that's what I was looking for. Also, the consultation went really well as Dr.Marcells was very informative and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable with him and this is very important for me.
I had my preop today and that went well too. Dr. Marcells answered all my questions and concerns.
I noticed that there aren't many reviews about Dr.Marcells so I thought some of you might find my story useful in making the big decision about choosing your surgeon.
I'll post regularly during my recovery period to keep you guys up to date. Photos can be sent upon request.
My concerns with my nose are;
> Droopy pinched tip
> Broad upper half
> Hump
I'm very nervous. Not about having a surgery but about the possibility of undesirable outcome or complications.
We'll see. Good luck to me :P

Yes, good luck to you!! Thank you for starting your story on RealSelf. Nervousness is very normal. I was a basket case before mine. Here's a list of pre- and post-op tips for you...being prepared can help take the edge off the nerves. Please keep us updated!

Good luck! Is it really $15,000? I'm guessing as he's such a good surgeon?
June 16, 2015
Hi. Thank you :)
$15000 includes the hospital and anesthetic fees. Dr Marcells fee for my procedure is $11000.

Gee you were quoted a good price. Which hospital is this for?My quote for his fee was $12,000. Add hospital fee $ 5,300 and anaesthetist fee $600.00 per hour.I've had this op previously and to me it was painless, but breathing through the nose makes your mouth dry. A small price to pay seeing as I can only breath through one side of my nose, anyway.It took a year for the swelling to go down completely inside and out.

I'd be interested in seeing a pic of your upper nose before and after. I want my nose narrowed all the way down and front view is hard to mess with on imaging. Please send me a before and after pic via private message.Block out your eyes if you have concerns about being identified.Many thanks
