8 Months Post-op
WORTH IT$10,000
Hellooooo, I thought I would update my review with a couple more pictures.. on all angles; front view, 3/4 view & side on on both sides.
I am now 8 months post my revision surgery with Lucian Ion in which he used a rib graft to rebuild my nose. I am very pleased with the results!! I am still swollen on the tip of my nose - which I have received 2 rounds of steroid injections so far and will probably need another round in my next meet up with Lucian in February. I am sooooooooo glad that I chose to go with Lucian, he has given me my confidence back and I no longer hide my face behind a scarf. I am truly so grateful.
I will continue to update my review as I go on - I just keep on forgetting to take pictures!!

Aww that looks amazing! So glad you're happy. It's just awful that you had to go through it after the result from the first surgeon (how do they get away with it?!) But fab result second time around x

How on earth did your original surgeon think that your result was satisfactory?! Unbelievable. But Mr Ion seems to be a legend when it comes to sorting out bad results. I don't know how he does it but I hope he can sort out mine x

Your first surgeon was a butcher. So glad you were able to have that fixed. Beautiful nose now to match your beautiful face. I must say though, I thought your nose looked fine before you done anything to it. Just my opinion.

7 weeks Post op
Hello, I haven't done much writing here since my surgery with Lucian as I have been busy with work and life etc! I am now 7 weeks post op and I can see the shape coming in well now. I am still super swollen in the supratip area and also the whole of my tip in general, but actually not as swollen as I thought I would be considering my primary rhino was using a closed approach and my revision was an open approach.. interestingly I've swelled less than my primary rhino... go figure... I had my 4 week post op check-up and also for a round of steroid injections as I was going away and I wanted the swelling to hurry up! I seem to have fallen in LOVE to Neil Med's Sinus Rinse.. I literally can not go a day without it and whilst I was travelling in a dry heat climate, it was an absolute life saver for my sinuses. I hope that the pictures speak for themselves. I am so very very grateful to Lucian, he is truly a master of his craft and I truly, from the bottom of my heart can not thank him or recommend him highly enough. Will update more pics soon and continue tracking my progress! Thanks. X

Fab result. Did you notice a big difference having the steroid injections? Any side effects xx

Yes the steroid injections helped massively. However when it's hot outside or I work out in the gym it swells up a bit then and takes some hours to go down. In which case, I always try and tape my nose afterward if I can. I had no side effects from the Injection. X x

Aw I am beginning to wish I had had them last time I saw Lucian. Think I will get them in September.1 side of my nose still swollen more than other.Was frightened because I had heard sometimes after injections your nose swells right up xx

It swells for like half a day, a full day MAX. But no one else would notice your nose is swollen... only you will, -- well that was my experience anyway. Then over the next days mine decreased and decreased. X x

He probably think it is too risky cleaning other surgeons mess and I'm not surprise he give up doing it.
