Great Surgeon Who Genuinely Cares About His Patients - White Plains, NY
About 7 years post-op now
All is fine with my two procedures, nothing to report really. Sometimes I can feel the slight sensation of chin implant but no pain, same with my rhinoplasty.
I still stand by Dr.C
AverageGuy's provider
Well it is now officially a year Post-op and all...
Just had a follow up with Dr.C and everything is great..
I can now say I am comfortable in my own skin even though I know I'm not perfect, I'm finally moving on with life..
Dr.C has been great with everything and has been readily available with any concerns I had..
No regrets ;-)

Did you take any type of medication to help with the healing, bruising and swelling? The Arnica Montana that you took was it in a form of pills or gel?Or both?
I'm a little curious about how your nose was before the surgery...Would you describe it in short details if you can ofcourse....it looks soo good !
Thank you !!!!
Hi NY
I took the pill form of Arnica... Here's the exact one I took and the website I got it from
I bought two bottles and it worked out good, it seems like a lot of pills to take but they dissolve very quickly and taste rather good.
Actually Arnica helps with bruising and it's also used for muscle soreness.
Well I went for surgery to get the height of my nose reduced- which means how far it sticks out.
I got the width reduced at the bridge and tip because my nose was broken years ago, and was bulbous.
I got the length slightly reduced.
And my nose was crooked at the bridge- again that was from being broken years ago.
My nose is still swollen, you can really tell if you look at it from an angle. Dr. C also noticed this at my last visit and said he would like to see the swelling go down at the tip because it's still somewhat bulbous, which I was glad because he pointed it out before I actually told him, he has a good eye for symmetry... and I liked how he didn't just fake like everything was fine just because he has my money already,, He's very honest and trustworthy.
He wants to see me again in four months..so at about fall time.
I'll try to find some before pictures, Dr.C is also mailing me some before and afters. Which I'll post also when I get them.
Thank you for that information Ron !!! I am actually going to purchase these pills which help pre-op and POST-OP for any type of surgery...
The reviews on there seem very good, and my doctor said that I should take them...I think you should check them out and see if they are right for you, a lot of patients seem happy to take them and they heal quicker....There they offer Arnica Montana to take them with these pills which I will do as well..
Thank you for the post, I have an appointment with Dr.C in a month bc he is booked !
If you do happen to have any before pictures please send them to me, even privately ...I will give you my e-mail address...Thank you !
sorry for the delay.. been really busy, I still need to dig out some before pictures.. and I just hit 4 months pre-op so I was going to take some more after pics.
Anyways, I suppose I still have some swelling.. still waiting to see the nose I had the day the cast was removed.. my tip is still not defined like it was.
