Nose Job Questions -- Please Help! Posted: 09-16-05 20:07pm
I have a lot of questions, but even
answering just one would be greatly
appreciated.
1) who are some of the best rhino surgeons
in the country? So you know a little
background, I need to have a combination
rhino. Im looking to have the bump
removed from my nose and the tip refined.
My nose is slightly asymmetrical as well
and i'd like to have that corrected. I've
never had any work done.
2) I live in boston. Will I be able to
find any excellent surgeons in my area or
would I be better off looking in ny and
la? Do pretty much all good plastic
surgeons live in ny and la? If there
isn't much of a difference between the
best surgeon in boston and the best
surgeons elsewhere, i'd probably stay put,
but otherwise, i'd be willing to go
elsewhere. If you know the names of any
good boston surgeons, please let me know.
2) should I have a face-to-face consult
with potential abroad surgeons or is there
usually some way of communicating with
them through phone and/or email? For
instance, are they usually willing to send
before/afters through mail or email so I
can view their work?
3) how does the pricing vary depending on
the part of the country? Is surgery much
more expensive in cali than ny or
boston?
4) is there a way of getting a surgeon's
price range before consulting so I don't
waste consultation money on a doctor who's
too expensive and doesn't impress me
otherwise?
4) are there any good surgeons you guys
know of in less obvious locations like the
midwest who might have a cheaper going
rate?
5)what is the typical price range for a
primary rhino from somebody top of the
line like tabbal or nassif?
6)how successful are operations to correct
nasal asymmetries usually, (mine isn't
gross but it's noticeable) and are there
certain surgeons who are particularly good
at this procedure? Names would be great.

uneccessary pain like that?
Just consider yourself lucky that you're
healthy.

I have had two nose jobs, and my advice is
to not choose a surgeon by email, better
go and see! See if he understands what
you want, see if he looks fair, see if
his pictures are real, especially about
profiles.
Repairing adssymentry is very difficult,
it's called septorhinoplasty. Sometimes
it's impossible to achieve absoulute
simmetry, but it's always possible to
improve....
If you want to do bump and tip and
everything there will probably be a lot of
swelling, be ready and do not panic

My Primary Posted: 10-01-05 18:53pm
I wish I had done more research. :-(
you mentioned the midwest. (where?) my
primary surgeon was Dr. Richard parfitt
from middleton, wisconsin.
Edit
luckily, I think I found a surgeon who can
help me with the breathing and aesthetic
problems of my nose.
