Post Rhinoplasty Breathing

Hi, I am 9 days post op with my first Rhino surgery. Those who have had the procedure, how long after surgery did you get your normal breathing back. Also, how many of you had perm. breathing loss as a result of your surgery? I’m kind of stressing out right now. [...]

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 [...]

External valve collapse and hanging columella

I’m hoping someone who has dealt with these issues, or had any luck in researching can help me.
I’m a surfer, snowboarder, mtn biker — and the collapsed valve issue is starting to drive me wild. I’ve never had great breathing, but now it’s gotten significantly worse. Talking to the general public isn’t much [...]

Ear Cartilage–does it hold up?

The comments on the thread below on Dr. Le has turned to a really interesting topic, that I thought deserves it’s own post to give it a bit more visibility to make sure others looking for info on cartilage grafting–specifically conchal/ear cartilage grafting–can read our conversation and join in!
I had a revision with ear cartilage, [...]

Danielle Staub’s nose – Real Housewives of New Jersey

So Bravo has been running episodes of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” non-stop in anticipation of the reunion show on Tuesday. I admit, I like the show. So many colorful personalities…and it’s fun to guess which of the wives has had a nosejob. Anyway, I’m not knocking Danielle’s personally whatsoever (after the finale, I [...]

R4U forum is officially gone…

Just stopped by R4U to see what was going on, since they were supposed to close today, and I was shocked to see the site redirect to a Crystal Coves/Crystal Cruises website (note: as of June 18, 2009, the site no longer redirects to the Crystal Coves page, but instead shows a 403 server error). [...]

Dr. Thomas Le – Before and Afters

I read a lot of good things about Dr. Le (at the University of Maryland) on the Rhinoplasty4U forum. I have not scheduled a consult with him (yet!), but there’s not much info on him out there aside from what was said on R4U. Has anyone actually seen his before and after album? Can anyone [...]

How are people paying for their rhinoplasties?

I’m curious how all of you are paying for or financing your surgeries…in particular, those of you (like myself) who are going into your 2nd, 3rd or plus operations. I paid for my first and second by credit card, and I paid quite a bit of interest on it since I was unable to pay [...]

Welcome!

I wanted the inaugural post on this site to welcome all the future users of RhinoplastyForum.net. I had my first rhinoplasty in 2006; the actual surgical results were no where near my imaging (i.e. the predicted results), and I was devastated. I went back to my surgeon for a minor revision a year later and, [...]
