Contemplating rhinoplasty
I certainly have a prominent nose, but am unsure if making it smaller would even fit my face at all. Perhaps theres some type of other revision rhinoplasty that would be appropriate for me, such as tip rhinoplasty.
Believe it or not, I went all throughout high school and pledging a ruthless fraternity without anyone [...]

Need recommendation on plastic surgeon for Rhinoplasty- Chicago
I am 31 years old and have always contemplated having my nose reshaped as early as elementary school..getting teased in school about my nose still haunts me to this day.

Now it is softer, smaller, shorter, bridge narrowed, walls puffy cause he inserted, tip is flatter…can anyone give me an [...]

Los Angeles Rhinoplasty I chose Daniels, and looked at Frankel & Nassif
Disclaimer: these are my opinions only. So take it as it is.
After reading the boards, I looked at 3 surgeons to get my Primary Rhinoplasty done. I contacted 2 of them. I had surgery with Daniels.
I find many reviews on the boards lacking information that would have been helpful to me. [...]
Prof Pietro Palma for Rhinoplasty
Does anybody have any experience with rhinoplasty by Prof Palma (Milan)? I’ve read that he is very good as in primary cases, as in revision by closed approach. Has his personal philosophy and technique. I have some septal deviation that compromises my breathing, so, I’d like to do functional and cosmetic parts as a one-step [...]

Second revision
Hello, all, I’m a guy who’s in need of a 2nd revision. I won’t say my exact age, but it’s not over 25. For starters, I let a very, very unexperianced ‘everything will be fine’ surgeon handle a ‘rare case’ nose that he had no clue how to fix. I was left with nasal bone [...]

Hi all,
I’m scheduled to get my revision rhino with Dr. Schoenfeld in DC next week and I’m starting to get really freaked out about the whole thing. How did you prepare yourself — mentally, physically, space-wise, for your revision?
Thanks!

Ear cartilage grafting gone bad
Per your request, I’m posting photos of my nose before any surgery, after my primary and after my revision. It pains me to see my post-revision photos–the bridge is so big now. I absolutely hate it. It looks ghastly on my face. I thought it was all swelling at first and that my bridge would [...]
