So Glad I Went Through with the Surgery! - White Plains, NY

WORTH IT$6,700
My name is Bianca and on December 16th, 2010 I went to Dr. C in White Plains, New York for a septoplasty/rhinoplasty. I searched around for the right doctor, and after my consultation with Dr. C, I just knew that all the hype I had heard was completely true. I was fearless about the entire process and was nothing but excited.
After hating my nose for years and having a severe deviated septum , my parents and I decided it was time for me to go through with the surgery. I'm typing this the day after surgery, thats how pleased I am already! My bump is completely taken away and my tip was raised slightly the way I wanted. I cannot say enough good words about the whole experience and I will post more pictures once the cast comes off. I can already tell my nose is perfect and my breathing is already dramatically different! I would totally recommend Dr. C and I figured I would write a review so I can help other people out since he doesn't have a site. I will post any updates that I have! Keep updated for more pictures! Feel free to ask any questions!

Thanks for the post bebe.
Glad to hear about your results I am scheduled for surgery with him (Rhino and Chin implant) in Feb. I'm trying not to get over anxious about it and stay positive.
I look forward to seeing the out come when your initial healing is done.
Have you experienced much pain ? How did you feel after surgery ?
I have a 3 1/2 hour drive so I'm hoping it wont be to bad on the way home.

Hey AverageGuy!
You are totally safe hands with him. Every person who walked in the office who had surgery done by him in the past looked amazing.
I'll be totally honest, the first couple of nights were terrible, you actually can't breathe through your nose at all, so if you aren't a mouth breather, that might be difficult to adjust to. Today is day 6 after my surgery, and I'm JUST starting to get some sort of air through my nose, since it's been so stuffed. So be prepared to wake up and have your mouth being crazy dry! You have a pain medication you should take if you feel any throbbing (which i did) and I usually took the pain medication often for the first couple of days but now I dont seem to need it.
After surgery is a complete daze. You will have no idea what is going on, and I dont even remember how I got to the car to drive home. You stay in recovery for 2 hours after surgery and then are free to leave but you will be wobbly and very confused. Your drive will probably be fine considering you will still be very confused but like I said, the pain medication is key because it honestly takes care of whatever pain you are having (it also helps you sleep which is probably what you want to do on the ride home) I have no idea what the chin implant will feel like afterwards but I'm sure the nurses will all tell you what to expect and what to do. Best of luck to you! You are in great hands!! Hope you post on how it goes!

I can't wait to see the results after the splint comes off! How exciting! It sounds like you had a wonderful experience with your doctor. And so smart of you to get your nose tweaked the way you want it while you're young enough to enjoy it for years and years to come.
